Family Shot
« on: January 26, 2012, 05:36:43 AM »
Geday,

I've put a few more images in the gallery section, but I thought the Bell Mafia would appreciate a few family shots from my collection. As you can see I have a penchant for blue dials -

Thanks guys!


Hermann - The envelope of junk you sent me lives on in the silver 6081, and in an upcoming 6139 project that I'll put up when it's finally finished.

I'll make a note that the bracelet on the 6060 is not the original bracelet, but is a NOS 70's Stelux bracelet that is nearly identical. The original bracelet for this model seems to have been very flimsy and they are pretty hard to come by, if not impossible, in any usable condition. It seems they came in 2 variations, a fishbone style and a solid style similar to the 6020 bracelet.

Hermann,

I think I've stuffed up, it's either a 6080 or 6089. Unfortunately it has the wrong caseback!

Mhh... ok  ;)
 
Let me check, might as well be that I have a 4006-6080 caseback floating around somewhere...
May I ask which caseback is currently fitted?

Best,
Hermann
