Flyback

Just two shots of the finished watch.

Seiko 6m25 arrived

Yesterday I received the watch. Case and crystal have some scratches, but overall condition is good. Chrono function is awesome!

Working with case

Some cleaning ad polishing... and the result

Past.. Seiko Royal Oak

Sometimes I am buying, sometimes selling - life is changing :)

Yesterday I was thinking about watch which I sold few months ago - very nice Seiko quartz with interesting design, simmilar to the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak.

Waiting for the new watches

I am waiting for 2 quartz chronographs - one is classic lcd, another one very interesting with 6m25 movement.

Photos from auctions.

Seiko 7016-5020 arrived

2 hours ago I received the watch.

Unfortunately the watch is looking worse than I supposed.. really disgusting, dirty and ugly ;)

I will try to repair it by my watchmaker - at the moment case is clean, so I have to find new crystal, and service the movement.

Waiting for the seiko

Yes.. finally I won auction and I am waiting for the package.

You can see poor photo from auction..

My custom made straps

Some time ago I started with strapmaking. That was very hard to do and I wasted a lot of leather and time :) , but now I can say that my straps are well made, without mistakes .
I am using special leather wax for impregnate, so straps are very soft.

This really great thing to do Final Product by connecting leather, wax, glue and thread - just awesome feeling :)

Seiko 7a28-7040

Second shot of this month is Seiko Military Quartz Chronograph 7a28-7040. This is very interesting model with fully (15) jewelled quartz chronograph (no plastic parts!) with split second function. 40mm case is beadblasted, 100m water resist, with bi-directional diving bezel. Crystal is scratched, bezel also - but this is wabi, and I like it :) Really nice watch - actually my EDC.

Seiko Bellmatic 4006-7020

One month ago, I found this watch at internet auction. Seller's photos were very poor, and the watch was looking very crappy . When the watch arrived, I was shocked :) Great condition, like NOS 27j bell-matic with awesome dial! You can see wristshot of this watch compared to my other bellmatic.
