Old Hammy back from the shop
Hey all, wanted to post a few pics of the Square that I just got back from the shop. My first Hamilton. Had to redial this one as the original was pretty beat up. Thought they did a nice job. Anyone got any history on it? Doesn't seem to be well documented as far as I can tell. Sorry for the crummy pics; just from iPhone. Need to get a mem card for the dslr :-/Enjoy!

On the way: Orient Sapphire Sky
On Orient's site, a watch that I really like has been out of stockit is the Sapphire Sky automatic. I finally found one and it is on its way in all it brand new glory. It uses the Orient Caliber ET46B.

Will post usual photos as soon as it arrives. It's a watch to be used for working, because I'm afraid to use my Rolex.

New Day Date & Stick/Lume question
Took me a while to get round to it, but finally posting about a new (BNIB with stickers) day date I acquired at the end of last year. It's a white gold 118209 that I'd wanted for a while, and had to give up my 3-watch SS rolex collection to get it (together more cash than I would have liked to make up the difference) but absolutely no regrets so far, and it's a watch I hope to wear for very long while. It's from around 2008 so has the newer bracelet/engraved rehaut but when I decided to change out the dial from silver to black, I ended up going with with the older stick/baton dial design, rather than the newer dials that have lume as markers. This may seem an odd choice to some but I had a old 5 digit datejust for about 10 years and there's something I really like about the classic/timeless style of the old stick dials, and also given the watch itself is white gold I though why not be consistent. Saying that I do like the presence/stronger impact of the lume on the newer dials too. J
