And my Speedmaster Snoopy... This one I got M2M from @cvp3. Originally from DHGate. I wish he'd come back and put up more stuff for sale.....

Snoopy looks class as does the vintage Daytona. 

Whats the favourite? 

The 6263, followed closely by the Speedmaster moonwatch.

It is indeed a quartz. She's a big girl, but the Blacksteel is by far the biggest watch I own. No chicken wrists allowed here.

I know... But since RWI came back he hasn't posted any here. He said he was going to post in both, but I've not seen any. Oh well.

PLEASE ... Do not wear your watch too tight ... It might cut blood circulation and you'll lose  that hand!

That Blacksteel is a frecking monster!

It's actually not tight. I just have a natural dent there in my wrist. I can spin it all the way around on my wrist right now.

There is NOTHING natural about that 'dent' on your wrist. You must be wearing tight watches and very 'active' in your teenage years! :rofl:

It's just the way my forearm meets my wrist.  It's always been like that. Oh, and active? Yes. However, I'm right handed, so not what you think. Smartass.

The Carrera is a DHGate special. $77 U.S. 

The chrono's do NOT work, the second hand ticks instead of staying at 12 for the chronos, and it has anti reflective applied inside the crystal, so it looks blue when the light hits it certain ways.  Also, it has a lume on just the hands, and fades after about ten minutes. 

That said, I'm happy with it for the money I spent. It's  a BIG watch, and heavy. Just a smidge smaller than the blacksteel. 

 

If you're interested, I'll post the link here.

Still, for $77, who can complain? :D

Any idea if it will take 7750 in the future (in case you wanted to make the chrono's work)?

I'm not 100% sure. Just off the cuff, I'd have to say probably not.

Left wrist, with no watch:

Right wrist. Never had a watch or anything else on it, ever:

My wrists just dent in there. Nothing sinister about it.

See, I thought you were fire saleing everything to buy more gens, and I thought you'd disappeared back to RWI. Damn!

Newest addition:

Omega quartz. Not a bad addition for $13.95, from DHGate. It's rather light, and the strap is very stiff but loosening up nicely. It DOES have a lume, albeit not a very good one.
