My Beloved Rare Timex ReefGear







Its a aftermarket bracelet!!

My Armitron Skeleton



And my Past Beater... A Timex Expedition Chrono-Alarm

For your age, that's a fantastic collection, Gaby!!

I had a MIDO Ocean Star Powerwind once.......given to me by my dad way back in 1965. Mine had a date too. Used it for 15 years.

Very nice and diverse collection. I'm especially glad you posted the pic of the orange dialed Benrus. I collect Benrus Wristalarms and recently purchased one with an orange dial like yours. I had never seen an orange dial before and wondered if it was a redial or factory. Yours answered my question!!

Well for now on their own boxes, but I'm looking for a watch box for all of them.
