Shinola was actually created by the founder of Fossil watches. Make of that as you wish. Swiss movement is a nice touch but at least give the option for automatics.

I went on a cruise. They had a lot of watches for sale. I didn't buy one.

I've had one auto magnetize, and another runs slow, just needs servicing, and all need to be wound and adjusted when picked up. My quartz don't do that, and I'm ok with that. Kinda wish I had kept the bathys benthic ti.

You know, I've never been on a cruise but you both just enlightened me to an aspect of it that I didn't even think about. When you're on a cruise ship, you're just a big walking skin wallet inside a giant floating shopping mall, aren't you?

And a auto winder case. For me it is about the mechanics of the thing. I dont mind having them cleaned and serviced... everyone needs a good cleaning and servicing every once in a while. |

Anyone care to date this Elgin I snagged at a yard sale for $3? Threw a band on it I had around. The old one was trashed. It's a manual wind, but keeps near perfect time. Full wind lasts about two days. Yes, I've been told this one is ugly, but there's something about the worn look I like.
I'm really starting to like collecting vintage watches... Last edited by Tkacik; 08-19-2015 at 10:26 AM. |

It was used in the 50's too. Hard to know but I'm sure there are some minor differences in the movement. There is a guy on WUS that is pretty good at dating watches.
The movement almost had me fooled. Originally thought it was a AS movement. |

Sold the Sea Dweller. No more old Rolexes for me. Love the watch head, can't stand the bracelet.
