Morning,

Just about as French as the Frenchest French thing could be, today it's this steel-cased Vatelrup from the 1940s and made by Marcel Ruprecht of Villers-le-Lac.

Runs on the old version of the 17j Cupillard 233 first seen in the year dot (well, the 1930s) and is still spookily accurate.

Regards.

i could not get this song out my head last night i dont know why and ive not played it since i had it on cassette in 1992. Maybe i have political consequences on my conscious for 2020?



and beyond....

WW1 (Made 1914) Elgin Watch 15 Jewel Movement.

A bonny watch that keeps time rather well for being around 105 years old.

All the best guys, have a great Christmas day.

thats lovely, but an example of what you get when you get a dyslexic watch maker who wants to call his watch nigel

My brain auto-corrected that to Gravy Master - that's like the Lancashire version of Saucier!

Meanwhile ...

Lovely strap and great service off a seller on the bay down in Norfolk. It should be good for another 100 year, it makes the turtle wear nice and firm with no movement at all, ive got it on the smaller buckle at the moment

Change of plan. The Seiko Ellen Ripley arrived today. Apparently Alien took a year to make the film, then another six months to re-size the bracelet. No, it's not easy. Anyway, 6 days from Japan, pretty impressive, and no duty charged. Fits much smaller than you may think, as it is only 40mm pluss the bit on the side
