Would you consider this a "vintage"?

Gentlemen,

I must admit, before I purchased my 16014 & 6694 I wouldn't have thought I'll be this much into vintage watches. I have always been weary, due to my lack of knowledge, that I'd end up with a franken or worst case a fake.

Today I took the plunge again, while it may not be a "vintage" per se, the thinner case shape suits my puny 6" wrist better and I think I'll enjoy wearing it more than a "big block".

Here's my 79270, serial B92xxxx so it's circa 1997-8. I wish it came with a plexi but we all know only the 791xx ref or earlier do.

So here it is...



a watch is meant to be worn
