    You should have to pay a fine into the fundraiser if someone can show their same watch on this thread :D
    I'm pretty sure I'm the only one here with one of these:

    I'm not aware of another of these on the forum



    or this exact variant of this more recent addition



    No doubt there are a few original DS200's but I can't recall having seen another blue dial version.

    What do you own that you think might be the only one here on the forum?
    I sold my Hometime on SC a few years back, one of my biggest regrets, I believe it is still here....LOL

    I would have it back in a blink but they just do not show, hence me widening my search to include a Reserve De Marche.

    Fantastic watch buddy, enjoy. grrrrrrr

    Thanks - it's a cal. K880 from 1960.

    I spent literally months looking for the right birth year watch for me, and then found two (this one and an IWC 666) in quick succession. Of the two, this is the one I won't let go... as you say, it's perfect.

    Not necessarily a rare one, but I don't think I've ever come across one while I've been here



    Pretty much sure I'm the only one with one of these though. Lots of unique fun to be had at the lower end of the market

    Indeed! And still very much a firm favourite.

    That K880 of yours is certainly something to covet, but I think I’ve said that about much of your collection!

    think there are only 5-10 of these in existence so prob the only one on here. Also this one I’d be surprised if any had as a side note it does have the worlds coolest lume

    Just a couple from me, a lovely Majex automatic. I've never seen another one anywhere (that may or may not be a good thing) and an Allenby manual with a most interesting set of numerals.

    Oh, and this. One of my favourites from all my watches. It was very hard to get hold of but eventually came to me for around £200.

    Have seen a few Glycine Airman's but they all seem to be modern versions. So I present my vintage Airman Special....




    Not seen a Kairos on here either....




    Then there's my Memocall....




    Seiko's everywhere, but not seen another like this on here....




    Or this....




    Not seen a Breitling AVI on here anywhere either





    And that's before I open another of my boxes - I do so like to be different.
    Best Regards - Peter

    I'd hate to be with you when you're on your own.

    Sorry I have an original Airman from the late 50s early 60s


    A few that I don’t think others have from my collection are as follows....


    Roamer Pasadena in need of a bit of TLC


    I know there are a few ScubaPro 500s here but this one has possible Norwegian Navy issue markings on the rear


    Fortis GMT, TBH I have never seen another in Stainless (most are PVD) with a luminova dial (again most have tritium dials)


    Sinn 155


    Marathon MSAR


    Marathon CSAR


    MKII Cruxible


    Waltham A11


    Waltham A17

    Lastly a couple of Citizens

    A little surprised that I've never seen anyone else post an EZM7S, given the love for Sinns.



    One of 300, apparently, but they still seem to be available, so I guess not that popular...

    I'm pretty sure my Sicura is the only one like it on TZ - For ages I suspected it was a one off, but I spotted another for sale on eBay last year!



    I suspect this might be the only Novus here, as I've never seen another.



    I suspect a few of my other '70s era watches are fairly uncommon, if not unique, on the forum too.

    Is yours the only one here on TZ-UK?

    A very interesting topic. I reckon I have 2, with potentially another couple.

    First up - 17.01 in blue. Another member, Andrezej has the anthracite -



    Secondly, this Seiko. It is not a SARB033, but a rare variant with crown guard, more shiny markers and dial.



    Potentially my Ming 19.01 could be an only one. Heck probably the only a in the UK until Ryan had the second, but sold it - not sure if stayed on the forum or not. Gratuitous pic -



    And then this IWC Ingenieur - can’t remember if there is another one.

    Behold, the mighty Kronotron, twin mechanical hand wind movements for dual time functionality, can't make up your mind about Arabic or Roman numerals? Why not combine both in one easy to read watch face, easy to polish acrylic crystal and versatile 20mm lugs. Proudly made in Hong Kong with apparently 'Japan Parts Movt' engraved on the back.
    Ive never seen another on the forum ( can't think why ) so deserves its place in this topic.

    Cheers..

    I had a Kronotron a few years ago, I'd never seen one like it but sold it in a purge of my unworn watches.

    It's great to see so many interesting and unusual pieces here without the usual point scoring you seem to get with the usual suspects.

    Similar design but with a date complication - I sold this a couple of years ago

    Always liked the GL because of those details you mention, V.

    Also reminds me of this one, not seen another here, 1979 quartz with original everything.







    A couple of g/p links are the only addition.

    I think I might have a very similar one. Or did I sell it? Not sure.

    Is it the model where you press the crown to set the seconds (if I remember correctly)?

    Yes,you hold to stop, and release after five seconds and hold in the crown to make the seconds and minute hand advance.

    Ah yes, thanks.

    Yes, I remember hurting my fingers trying to set mine. I think that's why I relegated it to the "for sale" pile (if I didn't already sell it).
