Incoming!!! Unexpected Retro Edition
Stopped by to visit my parents after leaving work today, and was given a couple older watches that belonged to my Grandfather. Snapped some quick pics, so they're not that great, but they'll work for now.The first two have got 1970's written all over them, but the last one is somewhat interesting. I'd be curious to learn more about all of them (info, approximate age, etc.) Any help is appreciated....Watch #1.Timex Digital on what appears to be a two tone, simulated crocodile skin, metal Speidel stretch band. Yeah baby...Watch #2...Seiko Quartz / Digital combo...on stainless steel "Flexon" strap.Crazy thing...these watches have been in a box for years. When I was first handed the Seiko, it was ticking right along, and the digital readout was on. I pulled out the crown to set the time, and it stopped. Must have been too much for the old battery to handle. :)

Gratuitous Movement Shot...
Okay, so this should be in the Swiss forum.My watchmaker just sent this pic of the wife's Longines all reassembled and just being adjusted at the moment. He remarked on how good the condition of the movement is considering its age. Speaking of which, I think you can get the manufacture date if you email Longines with the serial number? Is this right - and anyone have a quick link to the address? (otherwise I'll actually have to do some work and search for it myself...)

AP in the Caymans
I swung by the AD on Grand Cayman Island and checked out their inventory. Thinking about a Royal Oak Chrono, either the all black or panda version. I had heard that the Caribbean was the place to go for discounts but they wanted $18,500 for either one. I haven't done much due diligence on this model, but I experienced some sticker shock & got out of there in a hurry. Maybe I could have negotiated him down a little? Is that what ROCs are going for now? Now I'm thinking of just holding out for the larger version.

Case Number - Alaska Project?
