Monday wrist check!

This UG Polerouter belonged to my grandfather and spent years in a drawer with a broken bracelet.

And the guy who designed your Watch was also the inspiration behind my watch today (just look at those lovely 70’s angles)!

Not a luxury watch, but I picked up two of these Orient Bambino II’s in cream. I gave one to my best friend as a thank you for helping me get the job I worked at with him for the past two years, as I’ve left and moved on to the next adventure. Figured since we were best friends it be nice to have a watch that symbolizes the time we spent working together. I gotta say I’m absolutely blown away by how nice it feels on my wrist, Orient gives you a lot of watch for $120 lol.

Any Zenith experts that can tell me anything about this watch? Don’t know much about Zenith but this looks beautiful, but it is preowned probably 7-8 years old. Would this be the same movement on the current models, anything to look out for with preowned Zenith?

What would you add next?

Current collection, been doing this a few years. I’m on the watch forums but curious to see what folks here would go for. Random thoughts I have…SS sub-date, white dial Daytona, WG sub, PP Calatrava or complication, and AP but damn they’re impossible to get at retail.

How long would you expect to wait for a watch after putting down a deposit? AD took a 20% deposit on a special order piece a month ago and they don’t have a shipping timeframe. It’s an Omega special edition, so not something super rare.
