To be honest, I have not seen a dial as awesome as this one. Away from the Pie Pans and DateJusts and Seikos, this freckled gentleman is honest and elegant at the same time. A solid gold watch definitely feels different on your wrist, and one with such a dial makes it a whole lot more awesome. 

For me there's always something special about a solid gold watch - the weight of the case, the particular sheen of a nice precious metal, and how shiny it gets after a quick rub.  This particular piece has a nice story behind it - the way the acrylic crystal and the dial has boil-like texture - and it's really one of the reason I like this piece so much.

This is an early-60s Omega Constellation Ref. 14381-4, one of the most elegant and sought-after variants from the golden era. It carries the iconic pie-pan dial paired with the rarer railroad-minute track, a detail that adds depth, precision, and unmistakable vintage charm.

It's a tragic story, this one. Longines had been the official time keeper for the first Olympics held in Germany after the second World War. The games were touted to be a hopeful affair, with messaging emphasizing on joy and new beginnings. This all went south after terrorists targeted the games and took lives in what is now known as the 'Munich Massacre'. 

The Enicar Sherpa Guide is one of those legendary tool watches from the 1960s–70s, designed for travelers and adventurers before the era of digital flight computers. With its world time bezel and 24-hour GMT inner ring, it allowed globetrotters to keep track of multiple time zones at once.
