I love the simplicity of flieger style watches. The sterile dial and lack of date really kick this simplicity up a notch.

I like tropic straps. I have both my divers on Brady Straps at the moment

I love that tropic strap but it is quite cheap! How do Brady straps hold up over time?

Really well. I've had them about 12 months and they stil look like new.

Vintage IWC dress watch.This was my grandfather's watch. He died a few months before I was born and my grandmother gave it to me as a birthday present as a teenager.

I think this planted the seed of my watch obsession. I remember being intrigued by how much it was supposed to be worth when valued for insurance. I'd never thought about a watch as anything special before.

I suspect it's not worth a great deal in monetary terms as it's had restoration work done many years ago. However the sentimental value is tremendous for me, as a reminder of people and events long gone.

It's not really a shorts and t-shirt kind of watch, and I almost never suit up or wear a jacket. Nonetheless I try to make make an effort to wear it every few months even if it doesn't particularly go with the clothes.

What kind of dog is behind that beautiful watch?

 

[dangerman]

I'm dog sitting for my brother, I think it's miniature poodle. I've also got my own Cavoodle and they look almost like alike. Lovely, gentle, little guys.

Spotted that original earlier... one of the curious guys that said hello later was wearing a Panerai. Made the Airman look very plain.

Hopefully once he is 'assimilated' we will get another chance to have a look up close. I wish my girly wrists could pull off some of those huge styles, but it's not going to happen, even if I flex my hardest!

On the ferry en route to Luna Park with the kids. If you are out there somewhere shavingsailor Godspeed on your mission .

I got this to scratch an itch for a Gmt style watch with Pepsi bezel. Alpha has a mixed reputation, but oddly enough this is up with my most accurate mechanical watches.

Quite a surprise as I had low expectations. I decided this isn't really my style, so I rarely wear it. But today I am reminded that it's a good looking, sensibly sized, light and wearable watch. Too nice to be a beater really.
