As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

If it isn't spoken for, I think I'd like to try this watch. The size is right and it looks to be in my wheelhouse.

Thank you Rabirnie. I look forward to trying this watch.

To continue the PIF chain, I offer the recently acquired and cleaned up Raketa Big Red Star. It is quartz and fun, but it isn’t something that I see myself wearing regularly. It has a funky ribbon spring bracelet, which is charming in an Epilady Ultra kind of way. Holy crap, that company is still in business and making new versions.

Anyway, free to a good home. Post USSR, but with most of the charm.

it is a shame that there has not been any takers on the watches. I am interested in the World Timer. and Wolf Jr. says he likes the Gold Member. It may fit him just fine at just over 6 inches.

Everyone else...
I got two TX expansion bracelets available.. and adding the Three GMT Rubber STrap.. Black with Orange Highlights. I dislike rubber, so that is pretty much like new.


* Weekender Homage - Torbollo about a year old. Working fine.
* Lorus Day Date - for mods... the minute hand is loose; everything else works fine.
* if you need up to two CR 2032.. I got these by mistake, I do not have any watches that need these,
* Two Timex Expansion bracelets brand new never used.

I may grab that Lorus from you. But I also don't need more watches. I have a jubilee bracelet that I want to post here. Just need to take pics!

Let's be Instagram friends @bbrou33
You got it. Send me your address over PM please.
Sorry I'm just getting back to this. You can keep it available for someone else. I don't need to take on anymore watches right now haha. Appreciate it though!

I have 6 total 24mm straps. They are all various NATO style; I think one's a Zulu (you get the idea.) You can see that one is a two-piece. I don't know the lengths.

-- all have BLACK hardware
-- hardware varies in thickness or whatever
-- none are "deluxe" seatbelt style but all are unworn

I *think* they may all be from Cheap NATO Straps but I can't remember. These were purchased for a G Shock square idea that didn't pan out. I have 3 pairs of the relevant adapters (Casio brand) if you want them.

-- if you'll use these for a regular watch and need 24mm spring bars I might have some cheap ones I can toss in.

*************************

EDIT: See my post below this.

PM me for what you may want.

I'm glad you're enjoying it.

Aside from the textured dial, the bracelet was my favorite part, especially the brushed vs. polished surfaces.
