Got all the gang together at last....time for a quick'n'dirty SOTC
With the arrival of the GUB Glashutte 1980s dress watch and then the return of two watches from being serviced, I've now got all ten of my collection together
Taking photos of watches isn't easy, and the difficulty doubles with each watch added to a photo, so I'm not going to attempt any photo better than this one:
As you can see, I've got them all paired up - in my head I've five different styles of watch and I've two of each....

I've decided that I would reluctantly let this go
if I got my mitts on this:

I've still got the bracelet in its factory wrapping, so it's quite fair I think

It's seems only honorable that this
would be upgraded to the watch it was channeling:
(I would say an SBGW001 for the Skyliner, if they weren't so thick)
