The Finer Things in Life

The middle watch is a Seiko Flightmaster (model SNA411). It's a quartz (battery) chronograph with alarm function. A pilots watch, equipped with a slide rule on the bezel for performing calculations.

Not my picture:

You can get these now for between $210-$300 depending on where you buy from. When they first came out (many years ago) they retailed around $500.

This watch is also available in gold (SNA414) and blue bezel with white dial (SNA412).

This is the watch I am gunning for this Christmas

I'm hoping around then I can snag one for under $3,000.

Before my dad became ill (he's stable now). We tried locating my grandpa's pocket watch. man i wanted that pocket watch so bad even if it wasn't working. It's a very old pocket watch too. Since things didn't turn out well, I'll probably never find it now.

m4a1mustang · 08-17-2010, 09:19 PM

That's too bad you didn't find it.

This is my watch. $55. I wear mine 24/7 and they get beat to hell, they typically last 16 months or less.

Over the years I've had an Omega, Sinn and a ton of Citizens. Here is my newest one - Marathon JSAR modded by IWW -

That place definitely found the right thread. That a finer thing in life if I ever saw it. I've spent the last half hour trying to find something here that compares.

I wish I could wear a decent sized watched. I'm pretty much the skinniest person in the world so nothing looks right on my wrists. It's horrible.

Watches never fit me snugly, because my wrist-to-hand ratio is out of whack. So if it's big enough to get over my hand, it's just a little too large for my wrist.
