Beautiful watches Rich I think I am partial to the Bulova. I have enjoyed looking back through all the wrist watches you all have. I never get tired of looking at them. Although I get tired of cleaning drool off my keyboard. Confused

One more to drool over Rob I wore this Omega Seamaster today. Stainless back 14K bezel of course before I could wear it it had to be cleaned the movement would not run until I did that. This one could be in the presentation section also.

Here is today's watch -- a 1933 Illinois Wentworth in white gf. It's rather similar to the Futura model, but a little simpler (and I think more elegant) in design. It's pretty rare, and produced during the final year of production in the Springfield factory, before Hamilton was forced to close it down because of the Depression.

The movement. This was the eBay seller's photo. For some reason he must have liked the blue strap...I prefer the brown one, esp. with the dial's patina.

Anyone want a barely used 16 mm blue strap? Smile

Dang,
Just what I needed, something else to collect! Although I have been collecting pocket watches for a few years, and have a few neat wrist watches, I have not actively collected them. After seeing these beautiful things, I will probably have to start!
