Tell me about that one!
This is my haul from the field watch challenge last year :D. My post with more details on this watch are on page 13.
viewtopic.php?f=35&t=1738

The limit for the challenge was $35 and I got this watch for $24 and some change on eBay. I wanted another band and Matt found one that was less than $4 . The coolest part, for me, was finding a service mark from 1944 in the caseback. It is a small watch at 32mm, and my wife says that is looks funny on me, but dollar-for-dollar is has been really hard to beat!

32s wear fine on most of us :) That's a beauty.

Left the house for a walk, found a package from Spain marked "Apertivos Saltados / Salty Snacks". This was the snack.

Was reorganizing my dresser and found the bracelet for the Orion Sylph.
Dawned on me that Nick used the same case for the Orion 1.
So putting that one on a bracelet for now.

Always thought the light on this thing sucked but I guess it has to actually be dark for it to be effective Image
