Which Watch are you wearing today?

Thanks Darren. It was a Christmas gift from a close friend. I think that I like it on a russet colored lizard strap just a bit more.

it pays to be a boy toy

I had to filter many, many jokes.

It's a 1946 production Oyster Perpetual (Bubbleback), reference no 3131 in 14k yellow gold. The watch was originally purchased new by my friend's father after he ended his military service (WWII Army veteran). My friend isn't sure if the watch was purchased in Europe or in the US. Based on the manufacturer date, I'm assuming it was purchased here in the states (unless he was one of the last serviceman to return in early 1946).

Great history for a stunning piece!

Question for you wise guys…
Is Chrono24 an outfit you can trust for Hamiltons and Omega’s?
