Very nice Rob. That ‘58 is probably out of reach for most nowadays. Nice mk111 and a Pepsi too. You have a nice collection there. I’m not a collector but I do like watches.

I really like speedmaster pro’s aka moonwatch. A nice handwound movement in an iconic case all for the price of a decent leica!

yeah...
Mr. Biden's interview appeared on Dec 2017 issue of 'In Style', nothing about watches,
he talks about his son and 2020 potential run for the President...this first photo on 2nd page showing him wearing that Speedmaster...
well, 2017 is the 60yr anniversary(1957-2017) of Speedmaster, even in Taipei, big promo party and a accompany film was everywhere...of course a 3 watch re-make set for...US$xx,xxx, the original movement 321 actually is from or related to Patek Philippe...
Me...am not too care about all other Speedmaster or Moonwatch and did not go to their party either...i'm trying to find out what watch the Chinese astronauts wore when they land on the moon...i know it's not the Omega...Seagull maybe...
Mr. Bidden, is he the new ambassador for...Omage? oh well who cares...

Crazy Joe Biden as Omega's ambassador. Good luck to them with that.
I've found the Omega as having the least accurate movement of all these bling watches. IWC, on the other hand, quite the opposite.

Red Chinese astronaut preferences? Upon landing they'll break open a 1982 Bordeaux and mix it with Coca Cola. Could give a **** what they wear.
 
Something a little different. Accuracy, not style. Two watches, I switch off between them. Note they stay synchronized automatically, and it's to the second. And, my new car seems to have automatic clock updates from the cellular system, all three in synch to the second.

An interesting feature of modern times.

This, on the other hand, IS my watch. Or rather my father's watch. It's 91 years old, and very radioactive!

Is that a Benrus 3 Star? Are you sure it's 91 years-old? Looks more like late 1940's - early 1950's, particularly since it says 'Self Winding'. 91 years-old would put it at 1926.
 
My only modern, practical tool watches with automatic movement and date.

Both from 1997-ish. Can't believe 1997 is about to get its US drinking age...
