Just sharing

[xheyung]

I value the time on my hands. I share the same passion for timepiece like everyone else here. I currently have in my collection, brands like Seiko, Rado, Orient, Omega, Tiffany & Co, Bucherer, Longines, Baume et Mercier, Rolex and Cartier. I must say watch-collecting (like any other home-bound hobbies) can be very therapeutic  and satisfying, especially if you are one that prefers home comfort, time will slip into oblivion when you put on a nice LP, while you're polishing/cleaning your watches. Definitely one of the great way to spend the evening(when you've hit the 40s'). Although my collecting days are only just 10 years but I do realised that it may be necessary to sell off some less -wore (less-preferred) watches so that I can use the money for other things, such as buying an English Bulldog..? So I went to my safe deposit box to bring home some of the watches. It was during then I noticed a little black pouch hidden under some envelopes. Ahaaa! it was the watches that I inherited from my long deceased uncle of 15 years ago. I remember seeing those watches when my aunt gave them to me not long after my uncle's passing. There are 4 watches. Thought I'd share one with you watch lovers.



love to hear your comments (conspiracy theories are welcome too) Cheers everyone!

Nice! Love the bracelet.... a very interesting piece from your uncle...  I thought it's a ladies watch. Quartz movement?  Is that a gold watch n a silver watch?

[xheyung]

Thank rainbowfix, glad you find it nice. This a manual watch with two different movements. The bracelet is solid white gold with diamonds on case/dial together with Lapis Lazuli stone. Considering the birth of this model was 78, the size was too big for ladies, so its definitely an evening watch for men. If I'm not mistaken my uncle purchased it during one of his trips to Switzerland in the early 80s'.

Thank you for the information rainbowfix although not much information can be found on the web. The watch is currently being sent back to Lion city for a service as the last one was done in 93 and at the same time requested for the movements to be captured on photos. I will share the photos the moment i have them and i believe it will be the first time these movements appear on the web.
