congrats!!
where did you source it from? i would love to have one in this age of smartwatches.
there is plenty of "new old stock" sold as salvaged parts cobbled together to make Frankenstein watches, this is actually not so hard to find. You may never know if the old watches have parts switched with functionally the same watches, these are more expensive but better than "hmt pilot" on olx
you can identify from the weight. The real ones are heavier. the lettering on the casing is narrowly machined, you can just see this also. there is also one other thing about hmt watches, it is very obvious if someone points it out, but you need to spend some time with it alone to get it on your own
no other watch in the world gives you that thing
It's not national pride. It is not sentiment. There is something physical and tangible that you ****s wont notice.

just remember to wind it up everyday.
12 circles. I think of it as a holy ritual.

actually, I wanted this so bad, I can write a self help book on just getting it
it was magical, as if cells on my skin magnetically conjured that watch

I was always very punctual till I got this watch.
Now I just look at the dial and don't need to go anywhere.
