Thought That This Would Make For a SUPER Group Photo ! ! !
Hey guys!I've been working on these four watches this weekend and all four happen to be on the bench at the same time next to each other. It came to me that this would make for a VERY NICE group photo shot so I broke out the camera! Testing is just about done on them and final assemblies will be finished this week on a couple of them.Now this is what I call an all star line-up ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !The first one is a 1936 Waltham, 21 jewel Riverside, size 3/0s.Second one is an 1914 Elgin, 15 jewels, size 3/0s.Third one is a 1911 Elgin, 17 jewels, was a size 0s but has been customized down to a size 3/0s.Fourth one is simply the best size 3/0s Elgin ever manufactured! It's a 1915 Elgin with 17 jewels! They only made 500 of this grade 423 movement and this is the 285th one manufactured. Very rare with lots of solid gold parts!

2 Treasures From Lior
Back from vacation and falling in LOVE with (2) recent SWI arrivals.The first is SL-600-10, all black with black MOP. This HUGE automatic sports a very unique crown-guard that spans two posts adjacent to the crown. It comes with a steel bracelet and a rubber strap (although I will probably NEVER use the rubber strap). Powered by a SW-200, the watch is executed beautifully. Textured and polished black MOP contrasts the black IP of the case and bracelet. Good "lume" accents the hands and affords night visibility of the time. An exhibition back offers a great view of the Swiss movement and the watch comes with its own little SWI travel winder; one of the best offered as it is intermittent, direction controlled and can be powered off batteries making it a true travel winder. The bracelet fits perfectly thanks to half links. Plating, fit and finish is typical of Lior's higher-end products. A NASTY little watch that makes a very aggressive statement on the wrist.The second watch is true mast
