I had a meeting today in Milwaukee and took the occasion to visit five TJ's in the greater Milwaukee area. Lots of watches in a build up to Father's day. If anyone wants a Gevril like the one I scored I saw several of them in blue, black and white and will be consulting in Milwaukee next week. PM me for details. They had bunches of LP, Luminox and Sturhling with the odd Bulova and TB tossed in. At store #4 I ran across this bad boy, the Accutron Eagle Pilot's commonly known as the Buzz Aldrin. Here are specs cobbed from gemday.com: WATCH FEATURES:
The caseback is what grabbed me with its Buzz Aldrin sig and dedication to the Apollo 11 Lunar Module Pilot. Makes me feel like a little guy again in awe of those fabled astronauts we saw on TV. I'm chewing up my impending consulting fees which I use for watch purchases and will need to stay the Hell out of TJs... although I will be back next week to chat up the sales girl and pick up my warranty booklet she left at the register. any possibility she did that on purpose?? HELL NO!! Not sure if its a keeper for me as I have one quartz chrono which I never wear and I am not letting this collect dust. CJ has called dibs as I queried him for advice when faced with the watch. I'm gonna size it wear it and see how it works for me. I have no idea how to work the split secons and flyback functions but have downloaded the directions and have so far managed to set the damn thing!! Q & Ds: ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Now that is one stellar looking watch. I like everything about it. BTW, I haven't seen the word "cobbed" in 20 years or more. :D:D:D |

Awesome flyback Pax! I saw that one on the 'Bay awhile back and filed it away for future wish lists :-) I have wanted a flyback for awhile, I almost ordered a Hamilton EVO yesterday but I saw something else that caught my eye. I pulled the trigger but it is on back order for two weeks so I won't post until I know it is shippped... Cheers, Griff P.S. I wish my TJ's would have more than Tommy Bahama and Swiss Army quartz... |
