DIY – Hide my watches while on a trip

I have a nephew that lives nearby that has a crazy affinity for watches. He lives on the spectrum, but holds a job, drives and all that fun stuff. But boundaries are not his thing. I came home after work two months ago to find him in my room with all of my watches laid out on my bed. As I walked in he was taking my brand new Longines master off and just tossed it amongst a bunch of other watches.

We can say he’s lucky to still be alive when I saw that. But I’m leaving town for the weekend…

New Watch Day – Ultramarine Albatross

Just arrived and its a stunner. I love watches with numbers at 3/6/9/12 and with no date. Once I saw this I could not unsee it and a great deal popped up on a search.

Website to the watch: https://www.ultramarine-watches.com/product-page/albatros9021

It has an Eterna Cal. 3902A, no date, running the show. I’ve been collecting movements more than brands or design. The finish on this is very nice.

If you know of any please post. I have tried every imaginable search cue but nothing helps.
