    Where are you located? It pays to try them on I reckon. If in Melbourne, try City Hatters cnr Flinders & Swanston. If not, call and ask them about someone near you.

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

    Just had this back from the dial refinisher. My budget would not run to a military Omega, and the dial was pretty far gone on this one, so why not? I know its not correct, but I'm enjoying it.

    Goodwill buys

    Sharp jacket TonyB. Love the fleck. Perhaps someone can educate me on partially lined jacket. I have had a few beauties like these over the years. I miss being able to fit into them now, sigh. I always assumed they were for warmer climates, yes?
