Pawn Shop Horology: A Unique Fossil Watch & Victorinox Chrono
One thing me and my father have in common is that we both really enjoy scoping out pawn shops for some good deals, and living in Lincoln, Nebraska there Is a strong influence from college football and college life in general. So you’ll often find some neat stuff that some college kid pawned off to pay for rent or groceries. Among the many things you find, watches fill most the pawn shops around town.

HANDS-ON: The Seiko 1978 Quartz Saturation Diver’s Re-creation Limited Edition, ref. S23626
Affectionately named for its tuna-can-for-the-wrist design, the Seiko Tuna collection holds many “firsts” in the dive watch world. From being the first to feature a dual layer construction with a one-piece inner case, to introducing the accordion-style rubber strap. In 1978, it also welcomed Seiko’s – and the world’s – first foray into professional quartz … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Seiko 1978 Quartz Saturation Diver’s Re-creation Limited Edition, ref.

When it came to Panerai’s latest collection, we’ve already covered off how the Luminor Due was the surprise star.
