Jussi, your selection of vintage military pieces would delight the heart of my son.
He went to Ukraine a couple months back and bought a whole heap of vintage military time pieces. They wouldn't let him take them out of the country, so he had to get them posted to him. Funny system.
Yeah, vintage Doxas are nice. And vintage Hamiltons, and vintage Elgins, and vintage Tudors, and vintage almost anythings that have a bit of class, a bit of style, and a modicum of hand work in them. Nice if they keep accurate time too, but really, that's secondary.
Right at this moment I've got a Fortis on my wrist, and on my desk in front of me an Eterna that I bought in Surabaya that I use to keep my computer honest, a Hamilton 992, a Hamilton 720, and beautiful rose gold Doxa ( thanks Rick). I love Doxas--I think of my Doxas as doxies--archaic English---look it up.
