My classic PloProf 1200 from the 70s. I did a lot of underwater photography for years and this was the watch I used. It went all over the world with me. You can see the faded dial, hands and there are a few nicks on the bezel. I sold it recently to a Swiss collector, but I do miss it. It was large, heavy and had an unmistakable profile. I always considered it one of the biggest watches of the 1970s but by today's standard, just normal size.

The watch is not a Bell&Ross but one of my own making.
Yes, goes well with the Leica one of my favorites.

I would love, to see, and hear, a lot more about this. I would love to learn how to make watches, myself.

Here is the back of the Memovox.
The gong makes a nice school bell-like sound, and the 2 small dots you see on the display back is actually exposed to the outside of the glass so you can feel the vibration as well.
That is just the coolest thing ever. thanks for sharing!

It sure is fun and also extremely practical in daily life (well, display back won't do anything practical but hey).
Here is my IWC Mark XII that I just got back from my watchmaker. The Jaeger-LeCoultre provided movement has been fully overhauled, but the case, dial, and hands are untouched.

Lovely! One day I'd love to own one, but looks like the market value has already skyrocketed.
