My favorite watches are the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 1982 still all original, a Cartier Santos and the Casio I bought when I was in my late teens. That one is at least 34 years old. Still works like a charm. I did replace the wristband and upgraded the glass with a sapphire one 13 years ago as the original eventually got all scratched up. All still run perfect.
I quite enjoy this Seiko. It's an affordable quality watch, thin and comfortable.

Great story here, US Army veteran decides to bring his old Rolex 1960 GMT Master in for an appraisal, he bought it when he was leaving Germany...thinks and is hoping he'll get $1,500 for it, boy, is he in for a surprise...enjoy.;)
Keep the box and papers, and wow, what a rare gem....

That is a pretty amazing story Andrew. Thanks for posting.
Phrank, thanks for posting that's a great story.
I never was a fan of ROLEX watches but this story is amazing. Great for the vet if he decides to auction it.
Says more about the marketplace that some people are willing to pay astounding amounts of money for something with little intrinsic value.

Daily wearer now. Midsized auto 2532.80. It's in need of a clean and a service after being put through its paces at work and by a toddler (couple of dings)

Some official TLC should work wonders for that.
