Ah, my bad. It was just a crappy phone pic© of my Junghans chronoscope.

Guess I'll need to pay up or find some kind of work-around

Very nice CB.

Okay, so I guess you'll have to settle for this vintage Gruen for now...hopefully this works.

Those were s**tty expensive when new, probably are also now..

Actually, my first watch was a Citizen digital, which I got in Christmas 1977. I still have it but obviously haven't even tried to use it (or get a new battery...) in 30 years. I've been thinking of restoring it but I'm assuming the battery has leaked and destroyed the movement so have been just postponing the disappointment

I've talked myself into and out of the following pieces in the last month

AP RO 15400ST (blue or silver dial)
BLNR
Speedy Pro
Tudor BB black dial
Omega PO blue dial

It scares me to think what I would spend on this hobby if I could actually buy something frequently...

Looks like a local shop is going to be hosting a Grand Seiko event at work soon-ish. Can't wait.

Get the AP RO and make the jump to haute horlogerie. Once you do that the bottom 3 choices will no longer be on your radar.
