The majority (about ten of 12) of the watches in this box I stumbled across recently. Some have been unworn and wrapped for almost a decade in decadence.

I found one more brand with hazy crystal (mineral) and might be the only Zodiac I own. Miraculously it still had juice in the battery. None of the other had haze, regardless of crystal material.

I found a decent size, heavy box .. out of sight out of mind. Inside it had six Android boxes and one Invicta Dive box with an NH35 trinket. Only two of the Android had trinkets inside. The other four all have bracelets inside + a buckle. I recall Android used to ship the bracelets in their own boxes. To tell the truth each box felt as if there was a complete watch inside with the hefty weight. Just for kicks I put my newest Helson Porthole 40mm size trinket beside these two Goliath beast from many moons ago. The orange has a Miyota 9015 and the sinister black the NH36. Two Air Blue Pilot trinkets still mummy wrapped were in the mix with the Miyota 9015 as well.

:wink: Very impressive!:dance2:Thanks Mike.:hat:
Thanks Dayman, not to sound ungrateful, but more like what I was thinking when I picked up so many of the early choices. I suppose it's like anything else in life, taste changes in time. Ones I look for and hope to find I can't seem to stumble upon. Ones I wish I'd never seen appear like an old nightmare. :hmm: I blame it on an OBE when I purchased these behemoth trinkets. Those two Androids make even my full-size Megalodons seem small.

I know what your saying Mike. :wink: I just got done going over my collection. Not as many as yours, but still, after 20 years, enough.:grin: A lot of pieces that haven't seen wrist time for quite awhile. Found 24 that needed batteries. Most can still intrigue me, and the ones that don't, end up in the GIFT category.:wink: That way I always have a little room for more.:grin: Still, and all, it takes a lot to move me out of the NBZ, now. The "New Stuff", just seems reworked "Old Stuff", most times, or that's the way it feels to me.:dunno: It's still fun to see what is going on, and then there are those time when you find those "Diamonds in the Rough".:happy:
I like seeing your collection. you have some marvelous pieces to be sure.:wink: Thanks for sharing, my friend.:cheers:
 
Another group of trinkets buried away that hasn't seen the light of day. Probably only once for photos when they were first purchased.

A few more I put batteries in late last night. These Renato models are the older original models using sapphire crystals. Later on they started to use sapphire coated mineral glass. There was no haze in the Invicta or Vulcan.
