New week wrist check June 27 - July 1
- Thread starter J.Prime

Piccked this old piece up on ebay (mainly for the acrylic bezel and the movement), thinking of building something non-branded custom with a different case (FF like maybe).
Threw on a silver tropic rubber and it wears quite well and has a great 60's/70's feel:

My opinion only but I wouldn't do anything other than wear this. Clasic vint. watch and looks great the way it is.
My first post on a wrist check thread... PO reclining at home after a hard day collecting raised eyebrows and admiration.
nice first post here Robbo, PO was my first rep then too 
... a couple of dozen later.. this one today

All Black 2 with newly arrived strap (Thanks Mikey!)
Strap looks great and is a LOT more comfortable than the rep rubber.
Scratched the screws a little when changing straps grrrrr
Strap would look better on an All Black 1 as it is not so matte.
Unfortunately I sold mine to get this.

Good move
Look forward to the pics.
Oh and I would recommend that strap. I think there are only a couple available now, and they are incredibly cheap!

Took this picture a few days ago but didnt have time until today to post it. Hope it looks halfway acceptable on my tiny wrists

Nice choice for your first rep... Welcome aboard!
Omega SeaMaster 007
For today & tonight: my Omega Seamaster 007 I purchased from a fellow forum member a while back. I like the blue dial, its presence on the 'ole wrist, and its time-keeping abilility. To whomever I got it, THANK YOU! dave:

Trivial Seiko tonight.
Cheers,

same for the week now... I slept and showered with it on. Maybe I'm trying to break the frikin rubber strap in. I wonder why they don't make it pre=curved like the Grahams?
