About this deal

If you like the idea of modifying watches, using the Eaglemoss collection can be a cheap way of taking your first steps into the practice, most of the movements are identical so hands can be swapped around though I warn you this is not simple and requires some basic watchmakers tools and a very steady hand. True, the watch is not water resistant, and the quartz movement is probably not the best, but I have other watches that fulfil those requirements. The chat part of the thread and the lovely bunch of people can be found here, http://www.intlwatchleague.com/showt...-the-afterlife One of the original 1950s Rolex MilSub watches, even in a very well used condition, can sell for tens of thousands of pounds. Fakes are easily obtained, but these days not so easily spotted, and many can fool even an experienced buyer. To counter this we set up a separate review thread to keep all the pictures and technical info about the collection in a single linear thread, just in case anybody was interested in the collection, but not our off topic ramblings, because I was still subscribing I assumed the task of posting the latest watches to the thread.

And this is the Lemania that would have been more likely issued during the early post WW2 period, note the single pusher for the chronograph. Asymmetric 40.4mm steel, brushed finish. 42mm including crown guard, 47.3mm lug to lug, 11mm deep. 33.3mm interior aperture. The Auctioneers act as agents for the vendor, and as such are not responsible for any default by the vendor or the buyer. According to the magazine this watch is based on Vietnam Era US military spec watches produced by various companies such as Timex and Bradley.

This watch is probably based on a 1960s Omega Seamaster 300. Some sections of the french Navy used a watch bought "off the shelf”, the Tudor ‘Oyster Prince’, however one section, SHOM; Service Hydrographique et Océanonographique de la Marine, was supplied by Omega, the role of the department is to document and map the worlds oceans both for military and public service.

The movement has the mechanism for a seconds hand and the watch pictured has had one custom fitted. So onto the thread, I’m aiming to bring up maybe one a day for now, please PM me if you want more or less information, we’d rather just keep this as a pictures and info thread so please any question on the afterlife forum please.

For people who like watches that have a vintage look but who can’t afford the vintage inspired modern military and dive watches made by high-end boutique companies, Eaglemoss is ideal. The Case colour is wrong for this model, or the dial is wrong for this style case, either way they don’t belong on the same watch. The printing on the dial is the wrong size, and a little fuzzy and faded close up. The seconds hand is too big for its scale, and the hands are the wrong colour, they should match the case. The quality of finish just too poor to be real. worse than the above homage in many respects, but they are after one thing, profit. The auctioneers reserve the right to refuse admission to any saleroom used by the auctioneers without giving a reason. This is an Asian made homage to another Omega watch, the Planet Ocean, it has similar Baguette hour markers and the distinctive Omega style curved case.

Then one day it got spammed by some random idiot. Briefly and without to much detail, what happened next was this:
