Which Watch are you wearing today?

[thor447]

I'll apologize in advance...you'll probably be seeing Adam's Visodate too often, since I just purchased three Fluco two piece straps (moss green suede, bordeaux suede, emporio tan Teju Lizard) and four Crown and Buckle NATO's for the watch.

Thanks again for letting this one go Adam. I appreciate it more than you know.

I miss that watch already. Remember, I called first opportunity if you ever decide to sell it! It does fit you exceptionally well though.

Crown and Buckle straps arrived today. As I suspected, it's a NATO strap monster.

I may need to step away from this thread. This is going to get painful. Keep the pics coming though. I’m on the hunt for another already!

Strap just arrived in the mail for one of my recent purchases, a 30mm Longines Tre Tacche. First time getting to try this one on.

I think I may go broke trying to keep up with some of you guys! There are some pretty awesome collections here!

Absolutely. If the watch goes anywhere, it's back to you.

A gold dial Nomos Orion has been on my wish list for a bit and the Tissot has a similar look, with the exception of the small seconds. Gold dials with nickel plated or stainless cases look amazing. There's just not many options out there without going vintage.

Thanks for the heads up Darren. I was waiting on Jomashop or Watchmaxx to restock a 32mm or 35mm gold dial Orion. I'm gonna need to free up some funds before purchasing one though. Wanna buy some flight jackets?

I was originally planning to purchase that Nomos from BC Clark, but their sales reps (mainly the guy with the Speedmaster at Northpark) won't ever follow through. He's promised to order a couple different pieces and call when they come in, but never does. I guess I must give off the tire kicker vibes.

The Nomos has a better movement. I like the simplicity of the dial and the sub dialed seconds.

I'd hope the Nomos has a better movement. It's 68 or 69 years newer and many multiple times more expensive.

Thought you may have been referring to the Newer Tissot's. Seems the reviews rave about the Powermatic 80's reserve, but there are many that criticize it for plastic parts. I love older Tissot's, and like some of their newer watches, but Nomos are pretty spectacular!
