| Gary, that is some Timex there with the blue dial, and case style ! That 'Floating Hands' theme is the best too !  Bill, what kind of Seiko is that? The finish it has is great ! Such a nice dial, bezel, and even bracelet with it also !  Buda, your T-Rex there is outstanding with all of the different details within it. Beautiful case, dial, and also strap !  Going with this one for one more day...  ____________________________________  | |

| [quote="wcbartlett"] This is a Seiko mod all pieces without exception were purchased separately and put together....the bracelet was bought after the watch was received, cost approx $500.

Going with this one for one more day... More than impressive sir !  Something how it all came together, and the bracelet really helps to set it apart from other mods even more. Neat stuff WCB, thanks for the information about it. ____________________________________ | |

I have never seen another one with this dial. ____________________________________ Later, GaryRemember we are the caretakers of mechanical art.....

Thanks Tom.....this a fairly rare bird, this style Quartz was only made for a few years in the mid 70's, then the technology was surpassed by cheaper quartz controls. I have never seen another one with this dial. Don't mention it Gary ! Thank YOU for the lesson on this one here.  Really is such a neat watch, and it's something how you never have seen another with this particular dial. ____________________________________ | |
