This watch belonged to my great grandfather. Not so accurate but it still works.

It has seen better days, but it was my dad's watch, so I had it rehabbed/cleaned and had to replace the seconds hand and the crown.

I was able to find a vintage beads of rice bracelet to go with it.

Here are mine, three vintage seamasters (the two-tone dial on the left in the upper photo is from the 50's, and the other two are from the 60's) and a Heuer Daytona from the 70's.. Sorry for the mediocre photos. Come to think of it, the Oysterquartz in my Avatar at the time I make this post is also from the 70's.

Here is mine - really want a solid pie-pan some day.
Anyone know what year or range of years this would be?

My watchmaker told me that when the Flightmaster was launched back then, it was selling at a higher price than the Rolex Daytona.

Anyone care to confirm this?

This one belongs to my watchmaker. He send it to Omega Switzerland for refurbishing. I don't think the dial was changed though. This model doesn't have the 24 hour sub-dial.

He allowed me to take some pics. This is the result.

I'm really impressed by the detailed watch images everyone's taken. It's quite a skill to photograph such a small object in detail.

The pic attached is the best of around 30 I took.
The dial could need a clean, but I don't think it looks too bad at this stage.
