    Let's See Your Watches! The Vintage Watch Thread.

    It's hard to find people to look at vintage items. I had to be patient in getting my vintage watch in to be worked on as well. Apparently the place I took it is one of the few places in Albuquerque that will work on vintage watches. When I called them a few months ago, they told me they were...

    Your most non-vintage preference or attributes ...

    I think that's enough said. There are just some modern things that are better than vintage, hands down.

    Your most non-vintage preference or attributes ...

    Well, I'm probably with everyone else here when I say that I cannot live without the internet. I mean come on, we couldn't even be having this thread if it weren't for the internet! (or any other threads come to think of it) And while I smile and am fond of the vintage tube phonograph that...

    Let's See Your Watches! The Vintage Watch Thread.

    Seperation Anxiety and Vintage Watches Well, I just dropped my vintage Benrus Dial-O-Rama off at the watch repair place to be oiled and cleaned. It's going to take an estimated 6-8 weeks and cost me $75. It's amazing. Sad to see how times have changed and it is getting harder and more...

    Off color comments

    I definitely like that cloud blue hat, and the vintage white Vagabond. I just wonder if any colors besides the usual beige and grey and black would actually look good on me; it's one of those things where you don't know until you try. Does anyone else agree?

    Humphrey Bogart when he was in the USN 1918

    I think its always interesting to see photos of famous actors taken prior to their prime. They usually aren't recognized. We just aren't used to seeing Bogey in his teens or early twenties.

    They Say Em' From the Golden Era - Slang & Memorable Phrases

    I have always wondered how that quote came about. Why is it Pete's sake? Why not Bill's sake or Mary's? Does anyone know?

    How Did You Discover Old Time Radio?

    My parents got me a few radio show tapes probably ten years ago for Christmas. One was The Shadow and the other was Suspense. I used to listen to those two tapes over and over again. Fast forward about five years from then and I purchased an MP3 CD of Richard Diamond radio shows on ebay. I...

    Love at first sight? What Balloney!!...or, does it really happen?

    I do believe my Grandparents are an example of that. They met and dated for a couple of weeks; then got married. They've been married for over 60 years and are still together!!! As for me, I'm not so sure about love at first sight. There have been a few occassions in my life so far where I...

    Now Starring, Your Vintage Items!

    This has happened at least once that I can remember. Sadly, I don't remember what movie it was exactly. I think it was a fairly modern movie though, made to look like the past. Anyway, I was watching it at home and the scene was in one of the character's living room. I had to pause and...

    Hat manners?

    While the majority of my friends were not raised this way, I actually was. I usually take off my hat while eating; the main exceptions are when I'm eating alone it seems. Some of my friends actually complain to me about this. One time I went out and ate with a few of them, took the hat off...

    How did you find the lounge?

    I was having a conversation with the owner of a local hat shop. He brought up Classic Style Magazine, and the FL. Looked it up online the next day, and have been here since.

    When you walk by there again, you should go ask to speak to Marlowe. See if he's currently available for hire.

    The lack of Pedestrian culture in America

    In Albuquerque, its pretty much impossible to get around the city if you don't have your own car. The city buses here are pretty pathetic; they never show up according to schedule. Back in high school, a friend of mine and I sometimes had to wait forty-five minutes for a bus to show up; and a...
