Nice gun, mind if I ask what model? The engraving looks well done. Not like some of the acid etched stuff you see. Looks a little like a browning or a miroku. I'm more familiar with Beretta and the shallow action
Watch looks great too. I'm normally a diver fan/collector but that's a nice shape.

That's a Browning B25 B2C I got recently -- all hand made, with a lovely piece of wallnut too, really lovely gun!
Perhaps we need a topic for shotguns then
Ahh lovely gun, one of the older Belgian built models iirc. I've only ever seen a few examples of theese. One being a friends trap gun that had a Monte Carlo rollover type stock. Lots of the Japanese guns around, which are nice enough but the Belgian originals just feel and look that bit better.
We have a mates day at MWSC about 4 times a year. - Nice ground - Sporting though. - Long time since been to Griffin.

Oxygen never heard of them, and whys it on a Seiko strap?
I was only messing when the said beach find. I actually made it look like that. The idea was a beach find watch.
I wouldn't say the brand is well known. There is quite a few on Amazon. I bought a couple of them last year for £30 each. The bracelet is from my Seiko SNZG13. At 12 there was a star. I changed it to the more traditional triangle.
I used the face from one and the body from the other. Popped in a tuppaware container with ceramic bake beans. 20 minutes in a tumble dryer on the cool down setting, and vuala. Beach find

Looks nice, is the bezel engraved or printed? needs to be engraved like the titanium 500 IMO, the Soprod a10-2 is a very nice step up from the ETA 2824-2 elabore in the standard Ocean one's, love the exhibition case back can't stop looking at mine.

On the blue its printed like the standard ocean one models. Ceramic bezel though.
A bit similar to the "rat" look in the motoring world?
Recently back in the UK for a wedding and asked my dad to borrow a watch as I was an usher. He gave me his fathers old Tudor that needed a new strap and said I could keep it as its better that someone wears it and keeps it wound!
Needs some TLC, thinking I might send it in for a new glass and a polish.
If anyone is able to tell me more about this model I would be grateful. I think its from the late 60's/early 70's.
Getting used to winding it but it's keeping perfect time currently!

Yeah. Not to everyone's taste but I've got some 30 watches so I figured I needed a rat in my collection
