quality brands that no longer exist

[Matt]

Sadly, I have a addiction to simple handwind movements and an abiding love of the thirty series Omega and the 27CS Smiths movements in many of their guises. which keeps alot of m favorites small. In fact, when I'm not thinking about it, my comfort rotation is between this:


and this

Not so much watches as slippers.

I really like my Olma. Beautiful pie pan dial and stainless case. Cost a whole $55.

Doxa was one of the members of the consortium that produced the auto winder for the AS1687 ebauche, along with the aforementioned Zodiac, Girard-Perregaux, and Favre-Leuba (Eberhard was the fifth member). But I have never seen it. Vintage Doxa non-divers seem to be scarce as hen's teeth.

I wouldn't say the non-divers are rare. There are always plenty on eBay. From what I have seen Doxas tend to be bigger diameter then other brands but lots of them are chrome plated and not stainless steel.
