38mm Auto on my black NATO - don't worry I was in line at the drive through

Attachment 686357

I'm bad about taking pictures while I'm *cough* not in the drive through.

I love seeing what other ladies are wearing. And I feel funny 'liking' every post but I really do like every one of these watches! Some of them are giving me bad ideas. ;)

Today I wore the trusty Tissot PR100.

The Vector did stellar service today; looking forward to a relaxing night in with one of my oldies-but-goodies. From 1973, Pulsar Time Computer P3 Date Command:



Given it's original quartz crystal hums away at 32,768Hz, I wonder how many oscillations it's done in it's 39 years?

Thanks for the luck!! It went...okay. I think I passed, but I won't know for sure until next month.

As for the Citizen, I LOVE IT! It can be dressed up and dressed down...harder to dress down, but still possible. =) Yes, the bezel has mother of pearl insets. The subdials are mother of pearl as well. This pearl version seems to be hard to find nowadays (I bought mine 4 years ago). I only see the diamond and black versions on the bay, which make me feel like mine is a little more unique and special. =)

Great watches ladies!!!

I have a similar white ceramic in Bulova chrono which I adore Amazon.com: Bulova Women's 96R19 Diamond Chronograph Watch: Bulova: Watches.

If you like this chrono as I do, here's a little more info. although I am not the OP.

Citizen has a new version of the posted chrono which is a little larger than the older model at 28mm Amazon.com: Citizen Women's FB1180-56D Eco-Drive Miramar Stainless Steel Sport Watch: Riva: Watches.

If I didn't have the Bulova looking so similar I would've picked up the new Ciitizen which is also an Eco drive and sapphire crystal. It looked like a good size on my 6" wrist.

Here's the new Citizen version: at 35mm

Utinam Orbis Senestre made in Besançon, France. replaced the leather strap with a NATO strap.

Interesting! I think it would drive me crazy, though. I'm halfway there as it is ; a watch like that would probably put me right over the edge. Love the NATO.

one will get use to reverse time reading once its on the wrist...the watch that does drive me abit crazy would be the 'think the earth' watch, powered by a seiko quartz movement....read the hour hand anti-clockwise, the minute hand clockwise... i am still having problem reading the correct time every time i wear it.... :)

p/s: siaokia means crazy kid when translated to english

Way to go, Cat!

Going back in time to the late 1930s, when ladies' watches had shifted from the "dainty but very readable" 22mm-30mm range to the "can someone tell me what time it is, I can't read my watch" 15mm-18mm range. This 1939 Hamilton Melodie is 15mm wide:



Edit: Hmm, I might need to swap it for something larger today. I've developed a driver's tan on my right arm, with a large untanned area courtesy of my modern-sized pieces. The tiny Melodie leaves a lot of that untanned skin exposed, looks a bit daft...
