I'm off for a '70s disco night tonight and wanted to wear something retro. Found this citizen digital watch in my box - never wore it until now. Had it since the early '90s

:D

I hope you've got the flares and the crimplene shirt with the big collars to go with it. A Zapata moustache helps as well... :D

 

This is what you might have looked like in 1969 (Holland Park in London):

Not this time - my wife was watching.

 

There was a guy at the bar who kept giving me strange looks though - I think it was the handlebar tash!

 

Seriously though - it was a brilliant night with such good music, but I lost the watch lol. Left it in the hotel room when we left - i'm such a dozy git!  :(

I'm glad you had a great evening, :)

I can't believe you left the watch behind. :( At least if it comes up on eBay you'll recognise it, there can't be many like that left in the world! ;)

My wife stays in that hotel on occasion - I think they will keep it safe for her to get when she is there in June :)

Actually just found a couple more in my box lol

      Omega Split stem issue (will not go back in)

      By Rustinbox · Posted

      Bringing this old thread back to life, as I have similar problem. I did follow this advice, but while inserting a male stem (crown side) and just pushed it to the female part, and the fork (female side) of the stem has broken. What is the right way? Push the stem part so it widens the gap and fits in? Why it was then receiving side got broken? Old metal? It is a vintage watch from late 60s.    or the outer part should be inserted somehow from the side (slipping to the gap), but I don’t have space there for this manipulation. The watch is Orient Fineness monocoque case.   thank you!

      Winding pinion making

      Thats insane Nev that you cut those tiny pinion teeth with a cutter you designed and made.

      AS 554 from 1930

      By Neverenoughwatches · Posted

      I certainly do Razz. Ive just started work on this AS554, interestingly enough it had a paper dial made from a postcard , look at the brand name on the dial, very curious.

      Generic screws for unknown movements

      By Neverenoughwatches · Posted

      Yep, so we got a 10 1/2  ligne movement, thats the starting point now these bad boys books should hopefully get us across the finishing line . Next we need a good clear picture of that rocking bar, the setting lever and the setting lever spring. I've already got an idea what it might be.
