That’s an unusual one! Looks like Linde Werdelin meets Panerai Slytech!

I like it.

Damn.............you're the only person whose pictures can make an Invicta look good, Del.

That's a sensational picture.

This one is decades old, yet +1s per day.  Poor fella never even had a service or much love.

I like it.

Kind of reminds me of my Hamilton Khaki :

  Thanks mate.  Believe it or not, this was taken with an iPhone X with only some minor tweaking using the iOS built-in editor.  The camera on that thing is amazing, and taking close-up wristies is much easier too with the 2x optical zoom.

As for the watch, it actually looks really good on the wrist and I can hardly believe it only cost circa £70! It even has a Seiko auto movement.....! Budget watches at their very best IMO.

Now THAT's a fine watch.

I still regret divesting myself of the one I had last year.

Most people are astonished when I tell them it's a quartz movement.

As you can tell from the wristie.......it was a tad too large for my wrist:

Still looks great, I really like the coin style bezel on these!

Yeah, again it was crazy cheap!  Think I got it in a sale for about £50 or thereabouts.  Actually, the Hirsch Lucca strap cost about the same at £55!

I'm sure there will be an opportunity to reacquaint myself with another in time.

Thanks Del. B & M Riviera, at one time was a fairly popular rep.

Yes! It is a full blooded gen Riviera.

Very nice looking Khaki.  Haven't bought a Hamilton yet but love some of their designs.

Another interesting one - looks very nice.

Do you have a “my collection” thread? I couldn’t find one.

You have some great pieces!

I sure do have a "My Collection" thread, but can't attach the link as I'm not home and am using my phone to type this message to you.

Ok, thanks!  I'll have a more comprehensive search now!  

EDIT:  Found it!  It is in Supporter's General Discussion but I was looking in the "My Collection" sub-forum.
