Can't see the clickpix icon.  It looks like the icon doesn't appear if you edit a post. So you can't then add an image.@glaude

Morning all. Mellow Sunday with my favourite Bremont and favourite tan strap (Montblanc)!

Reflected blue skies...hurrah!

..... and is it comfortable to wear these like this, on a daily basis?

That is sweet! Is the post still available @cvp3?  That Mido is super nice too @BravoDelta, new? A lot of new stuff in here recently, @movintage with the mystery-dialish Longines, never seen one of these before.

Yup, it’s still out there in the ether.

Excellent Quad! 

Is the Ventura a quartz?

It is.  I went to buy the automatic, and all was going well, until Clare saw the lady version.  So I ended up with two quartz instead.

The Hamilton and Tudor are GMT.  The two Breitlings are  every time zone in the world, twice a day each.

No, but the thread is "wrist check.",  so, unlike some images these are on my (extended) wrist.  I couldn't be arsed to do  separate images, and these are my 4 most recent gen purchases.

Beautiful twin Venturas! 
The original Ventura introduced to the world in ‘57 was Hamilton’s and I believe the world’s   first electric ( not quartz) battery  powered wristwatch. 
So your wife’s and yours are closer to the original than the models with automatics.

IMHO, timeless works of art that have remained favorites to collectors and the big screen from Elvis Presley to MIB.

That's a very handsome bronze @NFleischer, no patina yet! Love the dial.

Thanks FSS!  Picture was when new, gets more of a tarnish than patina really.  The brand has some infamy, I was lucky and had no problems but seems like owner ripped some people off.

Who knows Bronze composition, prolly cheated and put Gold instead, LOL

On a dull and rainy Brisbane morning.

Thankfully, I'm working from home today:
