Cos Cob, CT...just look for the grey house with the wild African dog, security system and "unibomber looking" owner. The door is usually unlocked (I forget sometimes). If it is locked, wrestle the dog to the ground and take off it's invisible fence collar. The collar also has the sensor for the pet door behind my garage. You should be able to grease yourself up and fit through...I keep my watches in my hamper, just under yesterdays underwear...fee free to take a pair!

But mine will feel like a 13 when you try getting it out!

You guys are all wearing good watches!! Todays Vintage is this $2 Eseikor, made to deceive people back in the 70's. The '23' is just a number, not the jewel count, it has a single jewel pin lever inside. It is Swiss parts...on the dial, but made in Hong Kong. 'Electra' was used to cash in on the new electronic and electric watches of the time (it's a manual wind). The date window looks like a day date, but it's not. The diamonds are most likely glass. Finally the name Eseikor could be modified with two dabs of paint to read 'Seiko', there are bunches of these cheap watches out there with almost names like 'Bolivia' or 'Aseikon' not really fakes, but made to deceive just the same. It's a $2 watch that keeps excellent time and is in decent shape after almost 40 years. A part (a sad part) or watchmaking history...with a super funky dial that 'moves' as the light catches it, still gets a spot in my vintage box.

Great history 66, dial totally rocks!
