Curious, what's everyone wearing today? Let me see your #watch !!!
I've been working on this special #Seiko and it's up and running great, I even jeweled the barrel arbor to make it extra special. Now, I'm wearing it to get real-world testing to see how well/accurately it runs!
What's your watch? Does it have a story? Just looks cool? Let me know!
Good old Poljot 3133 chronograph. 1990 (I think), making it my birth year watch :)
I wore it as a kid, not really giving it the care that it deserved, which is why the case looks like it does. Miraculously it still runs though; I got it serviced last year and it gave my watchmaker one hell of a headache due to the state it was in, but it's running strong! Minute tracker doesn't always reset to 0 due to the heart-gear wear, but other than that I can't complain.
I didn't attempt to service it myself. Regular three-handers give me enough trouble as it is ;) This one could really use a modern mainspring though: the rate varies massively between high and low wind, so I usually end up winding it twice a day or it runs like 1 minute fast :P
@PetePlaysTheGames@tadzik fancy watch for fancy people. You couldn’t buy this variant in retail. Exclusively handed as gift to VIPs and diplomatic staff hence the limited serial on the back 😅
