Citizen Eco Drive Black Dial Black Leather Men's Watch AU1040-08E

An oldie but goodie....Seiko 1970s LM
midsized watch but really a nice one: the faceted crystal catches daylight and makes the watch sparkle like a diamond!

My Hammys
l have a small collection of Hammys, all of which I like very much.The 1968 Masonic is my favorite, but I really do enjoy the Jazzmasters.Perhaps a Jazzmaster chrono is in my future...[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]if the boss let's me....

When is a deal NOT a deal?
I have been in Boston the last few days helping out with some family health issues and as some may know, Alpha Omega Jewelers, a prominent AD of many fine brands went belly-up at the end of last year.In one mall, the company actually had two different watch stores and in that same mall, as the final days tick down to an EVERYTHING MUST GO sale, final touches are being put on a new Tourneau store. Tourneau already has a few stores in the Boston area but this one looks like a biggie.I popped in on the big sale last night and while I did not get serious in discussing making a purchase, there were a couple of Hammies that were interesting. But besides lack of cash, I was fearful of buying from a company that essentially was out of business. That's me but what would you have done?

"Was it with Marie Brown?" "I'd rather not say who it was." "Was it with Betty Smith?" "I'd rather not say," says Joe. So the priest gives him absolution and Joe leaves. While leaving the church, Joe's friend asks if he received absolution. "Yes, and two very good leads!"

Very supple and it smells like leather and I love how it is formed to fit the case.-while the dial lacks a guilloche pattern, it does have a very subtle silver metallic sheen and the gold hands and hour markers contrast nicely with it.-working moon phase. This is the first mechanical watch that I've ever had with one, so I'm happy that I have scratched that off the li
