Ok, after looking through the previous threads, I cannot find any good watch threads. So post pics if your favorite watches!

Here are a few of mine. Nothing special but it's a start. The rest are being serviced currently.

If the dude with the huge collection of Soviet era Russian watches sees this thread, I'm sure I'm not the only one that would appreciate you posting pics/info of your collection again.

being a submariner myself, I always thought it appropriate to pick up the Rolex model when I  could afford to.

It is a Bulova Accutron, Spaceview Model.

Runs on a tuning fork.  Very accurate watch.

I may have another one after tomorrow... It's my b-day, and there's sufficient evidence to make me suspect a new blackface Omega Seamaster Pro might be in the offing. (i.e. mrs sleepdr asked me which one I wanted) What a gal!  This one:


My Casio G-Shock - this, but with a Zulu band; a great knockaround watch:


For now, here's a borrowed pic of my everyday work watch:

I wear one of these most days. They are both Hamiltons



On rare occasions I wear this one. It is over 70 years-old and belonged to my Grandfather. It's a Gruen from back when Gruen was a quality brand.
