@borz - super Porsche collection.
Really like the speedmasters and would like a vintage one or a SS Panerai to add to my limited collection
Daily beater
Day to Day business watch, have it a long time now and it never misses a beat. I really like it.
The big one - only comes out now and again. Like the fact that most people even those that think they know watches don't even comment on it.

Gorgeous watch. What year is that? 70's?

1973, give or take. A horological 'barn find', having sat untouched from the mid 1980's until last year, when the case was opened for the first time since new to have the movement serviced, case seals and crystal replaced. Thanks for the opportunity to brag. Nobody I know cares a lick about watches!

It's a great find! The case shape gave it away as being a 70's watch. It's a popular shape with Autodromo brand whose watches are influenced by seventies design. I'm a big fan of seventies industrial design.

Casio CFX-200 Scientific Calculator Watch
I wore one of these in college back in the 80's. Amazing technology, especially for the early 80's!
I currently have two in pristine condition, one with the standard band, the other with a deployment clasp band. I also have a non-working parts one.
