Not usually a fan of gold nuggets, but I couldn't resist.
Found this Longines Barlow a while back. Some before and after pics. It is now freshly serviced and has a new ostrich strap. Hey I'm from Alaska, I have to have one gold nugget watch!barlow1.jpg027.jpg028.jpg

my "new" cyma military
i picked this up on ebay a month ago but took a while to get to me here in manila from poland via the US. it's a cyma military wind-up, looks to be in great shape. the styling suggests to me that this came out of the '50s or '60s; i was unable to save the ebay pic where the back was opened and the movement shown, so if anyone knows anything more about this model, i'd appreciate it. the dial is near spotless and it works very nicely; no corrosion at all on the case. not a bad pickup, i thought, for $130 with free shipping ;) aside from the condition, i love the large subsecs dial and the delicately shaped hands.it's fairly large at 38mm, by the way, and takes a 20mm strap.here it is, moved to a 20mm hamilton khaki strap:

15400 Blue Dial/Steel Availability in Hong Kong?
Anyone know if the 15400 in blue/steel is available anywhere in Hong Kong/Macau? I have a friend traveling through there for a few weeks now and he could pick one up for me if dealers have any. I've reached out to ADs via the AP website but none were responsive. Would be grateful if anyone has info. Thanks!
