Zenith 18 ct GOLD - VINTAGE RECTANGULAR WRISTWATCH - 1945c

It's a LOVELY Day Here In Ohio
So many of our Florida friends have been kind enough to show us what wonderful weather they've been enjoying (which we Ohioans sooooo appreciate), so I thought I'd do the same today.Let's take a look out the front door today and see what the neighborhood is like:Isn't is just so beautiful! So inviting! Ooops! Better take a wrist shot to make this on topic...you'll have to excuse me if the photo is a little blurred. At about 17 degrees, I was shivering a bit...Now let's take a look out in the back yard:Boy! That snow is really coming down! Now, where are those puppies? Shouldn't they be out in the yard, frolicking and playing in the snow?Heck no! They want no part of it..."we want back inside Dad!!!"To my FL friends, yeah...our weather sucks. But I'm at home in my sweats (Wright Patterson Air Force base is closed down today, as are many of the major businesses in the area).SNOW DAY!!!!!!!

Deployment clasp issues... Why does it dig into my wrist?
My wrist is about 7.5. It takes the very last hole on the band to fit my wrist. So when I close the deployment, the watch is centered on my wrist but the deployment is not centeredIf my wrist were smaller, then the deployment would be centered where it should be.Any suggestions on how to make it comfy instead of digging into my wrist? Do I need to simply replace it? Might the band itself be too small? I dont mind spending to get a very comfy fit

How often do you flip watches??
I searched and found a couple of similar threads, but wanted some fresh insight here. I am just two months into this hobby/sport/obsession/disease. The first real solid acquisition I made was a Hamilton Tachymiler. I bought it because it was different from many I had seen, and it was something NEW TO ME. Since then however, I have learned so much and seen so many different watches that my tastes and likes/dislikes have changed/evolved/devolved.I have some emotional ties to this watch because it is the first one to indoctrinate me. BUT I have seen so many others that I might like to be the cornerstone of my collection. At the price I paid for this watch, I'd be "darn close" to recouping my investment if I sold it now. Of course, I'd immediately be stepping into something new. I've already flipped a few less expensive watches. Is this normal? I guess finding what you like can get costly :) .

Opinions on this speedmaster
Hi everyone, I'm looking at this one to replace a previous speedy I traded. Just wanted to get some input on the model/condition and whether it's fairly priced. Also, should I have any concerns if I move forward with the deal and it's being shipped from Canada? forums.watchuseek/f29/fs-...a-3397410.htmlThanks,

Any recommendations for a Strap "Wallet" / roll - for Deployants?
Looking for a way to keep my straps organized. I prefer Deployants - and I like to leave the buckles on. Now that I bought a couple inexpensive Panatime buckles, I'm a) hoping they work well and b) still not planning to remove the buckle even though they come off a little easier than the OEM.I'd like a nice leather - or possibly other material - organizer for say 6 straps.Can folks post their favorite brand of storage solution?Thanks
