1930s Waltham and Elgin watches
I've purchased several vintage Swiss watches over the years, but have recently become interested in early American watches. This week, I picked up a couple of Waltham and Elgin watches from the '30s. I don't know a lot about these pieces but I really liked the look so I decided to make the jump into American watches (and these were relatively inexpensive entries). I'll post some additional photos of the movements once the watches arrive. I do know they are 7 jewel movements, both of which have recently been serviced. The dials look to be original and in decent shape as well. I would love to get some initial thoughts from those of you who are well versed with Waltham and Elgin. Mostly, I'd like to know if they are actually from the '30s, thoughts on their condition, if they are particular models and any other thoughts that come to mind. Much appreciated.$(KGrHqV,!rUFJ!LBWuIdBSWd1+Jyrg~~60_57-1.jpg$T2eC16V,!yMFI,7cM6I)BSWd2HI-Bg~~60_57.jpg$T2eC16N,!zcFIc8J-V3hBSWd2PVU+Q~~60_57.jpg$(KGrH

Watch collection dwindling down
A lot of you know I have tons of watches. Thats not true. The ones I post and show off and stuff get sold working a week for more than what I paid and then I get another one (I'm talking vintage of coarse) my watch collection now consists of an omega seamaster and a Stowa. And soon to be a vintage (80s) timex quartz chrono. I flip watches like crazy (except gifts of coarse) and I have taken an interest and I now have an appreciation for older quartz watches (mostly chrono) because of the interesting technology and because they weren't as cheaply made. I still prefer my mechanicals tho. Me selling off the watches that are cheaper and less interesting let's me spend more time with the ones that really matter and for me to care for them better. And also helps me save for service. Just bored and wanted to share my plans :D

26320ST on Rubber White/black Dial??
Hey guys,I currently have a white dial 26320st. Long story short I am getting a bit bored of the look and have long wished I picked a black dial instead.I am considering ordering a black rubber strap for it. Along with the strap I am also considering a dial change from white to black.Do you guys think the black rubber will look better with a white or black dial? Does anybody have any pictures? I remember a member on here with an older white dial ROC on rubber but I forgot his name. Wach something.Any input or pictures (or even photoshops) will be appreciated.Thank YouKenny

First Panerai: PAM384
Hi All,Long time lurker first time poster here and thought it was finally time I jumped into the mix. I finally pulled the trigger last week and bought a PAM384 from a fellow member here. Hasn't left my wrist since the day it came. Big thanks to RUPanerai for a smooth transaction. It's a few years old, O-Series, but so far she seems to be running perfectly.
