I rang Watches of Switzerland and typically there arent any about...

cheers

OMEGA TIME COMPUTERS - ANY LED JUNKIES OUT THERE ???

Post by Little Rascal 356 »

Hi Y'all please see below some of my collection of high end LED watches. The Hamilton is the exact model worn by Kojak and The Glorious Omegas are just stunning to wear with a dinner suit or driving your 356A - gleaming in their gawdy 70's over the top styleeee. See also my Heuer Autavia hanging from Senna's steerring wheel....
Am currently looking for a Heuer Monaco if anyone has one - Love the idea of the one Thomas is selling at the mo but it's a wee bit above the budget.

Wife has a Cartier tank that needs a replacement battery. I could take it to Timpsons - or Cartier - but would guess there's a middle ground of someone who'll do a job at a decent price as well as do any cleaning or maintenance that the watch may need

I'm in Sarf Lahnden and open to suggestions. Ta
