The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Wearing one of my better examples of 7A38-7010 SAA001J this morning. I haven't worn any of them this year and I think the last time I posted a wrist shot of this one was last July. Once again, I couldn't quite make my mind up which was the better photo. In the first one I managed to capture the metallic red TACHYMETER on the bezel, but the second, which doesn't show it as well, is in slightly sharper focus. So here's both of them.
Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Perhaps not the best, but certainly one of the cheapest examples of the stainless 7A38-7020 SAA009J in my collection. Purchased off eBay UK for a paltry £100 Quid, 5 years ago, at the end of 2017. Ah those were the days.

Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Dug out one of my older restored stainless 7A38-7270 SAA093J's this morning.
I bought this one privately (via the RLT watch forum) back in November 2010. Cost me £60. This is probably one of the first watch case and bracelets I re-finished. Here's a photo I took at the time, feeling very pleased with my efforts.
With hindsight, the bezel was too highly polished.

Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Wearing one of my favourite Yema Spationaute III Aragatz's with the limited edition mission flags dial this blue SATurday morning. This one has a special place in my collection. It was kindly sourced for me by my friendly US forwarding agent Paul in Vegas (PHK) who, back in June 2018, without any prompting from me, drove 200 miles each way to pick it up. Besides, today is his birthday ! 
Again, I couldn't make up my mind which was the better of these two photos, so here's the other.

Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Stainless 7A38-7000 SAA007J on this sunny Friday morning. Speaking of the 1st, this is the first example of this model that I purchased - in March 2009 off eBay in the States, for the princely sum of $116.50. Ah those were the days.

Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Wearing this stainless 7A38-7260 SAA097J on a teju lizard strap this morning. It's just over a year since I last wore it. 
I was reminded how much I've always liked this combination, when something similar was listed on eBay last week. I'm almost inclined to concede that their strap is a better match than mine. Typically stupidly priced @ $429 though.

Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Wearing this favourite old standby this morning - one of my stainless 7A38-7280 SAA119J's that I refurbished many years ago. This one's fitted with a Sternkreuz white nylon crystal gasket and a 5-hole adjustable clasp.

Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Wearing this mint-ish two-tone 7A38-7280 SAA120J this morning. Incidentally, this isn't the same watch I posted in May, because I've just realized that my collection includes two in almost identical condition.

Wearing this gold-tone 7A38-7280 SAA124J, which once belonged to two previous members of the old forum.

Another one from the same recently re-organized collection box. One of my favourite variations from the -728x range - my two-tone 7A38-728C SAA138J with the UEFA Euro 88 stamped case-back.

Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
At the risk of repeating myself .... except this is a difference watch to those I've worn on the previous two Saturdays. This example is the one that came with the A4 Yema instruction booklet (subject of this old archived forum thread), which set me straight about the 'limited numbered edition' thing. This one's fitted with a ZRC shark grain strap.

Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Wearing one of my two-tone 7A38-724A SAA086J's this very bright sunny Monday morning. So bright it was, I had to seek some shade and so ended up with this slightly underlit photo.
PS - nobody else may be posting wrist shots besides me, but I just noticed this thread has now exceeded 60,000 views.

Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Wearing my two-tone 7A38-7260 fitted with a non-standard Seiko p/n Z1623C bracelet this morning. It's been just over a year since I last wore it. I got it out on this occasion for the usual reason: while I was doing my weekly check of one of my collection boxes, I noticed this one was doing the 'two-second two-step'. Time for another battery change.

Another from the same collection box - a gold-tone 7A38-7260 SAA100J, fitted with a rich tobacco coloured IW Suisse teju lizard strap. Just replaced the battery in this one too.

Re: The ONE and ONLY WRUW thread - Part Deux !
Seeing as it's Le Quatorze Juillet, Bastille Day, I thought I'd wear something French - decided on this typically quirky Kamatz 518000 'Oscar Bravo', with appropriate tricoleur subdials. Vive la Révolution. Vive la France !!
