Who collects watches?

[chronical]

There are some cheapos out there that use Tritium but the only company that I know that uses Tritium type tubes in their watches are Ball, they just started making a line of divers watches.
From my understanding though all dive watches "lume" will last the duration of a dive or longer.

Balls are nice. I ended up picking up a Deep Blue daynight T100. Should have it in the mailbox tonight or tomorrow. Ball was just too much coin for a daily that's going to get banged up.

Anyone know much about pocket watches or how to evaluate their worth? Found this when cleaning out my Dad's house this past year and just found today in a box of papers I was going through.

Anyone have a Suunto Core All Black they want to get rid of?

This is going to sound crazy, but the old man that owns the Pigeon Road gun shop here in Stephenville is probably one of the most knowledgeable pocketwatch collectors in the world. You might make a drive and see what he has to say about it. He's usually a model 1, mark 1 cunt, but when someone pulls out a pocketwatch, he lights up. It's nutty, but so is he.

I would love me a Nixon watch.

Not all nixons are expensive.. I've got a decent looking one for around $100

It's been a minute since I've had anything to contribute. Picked up a couple of vintage pieces a few days ago. Once the store is up and running and actually making me some money I'll start rebuilding my collection.
