Extra points if it’s not a display case back.

One of my favorites: Bali Ha’i Chrono Diver

Not my photo. But I used to have a Bathys Hawaii watch, and I always liked the map of the Hawaiian islands on the back.

Pretty boring case back on my new Dietrich SD-2. It's totally blank 😄.
BUT they laser engrave watch details between the strap lugs. Kinda' cool and super utilitarian.

I think that's a recent change.
Not sure what it means.

Not my watch but a watch that I had purchased for my wife some years back.

Its the G. Gerlach Batory RotorSystem Movement watch from the watch maker in Poland.

The watch is part of the M/S Batory collection, named after a famous steam liner.
This specific model watch by G.Gerlach is dedicated to a Polish Ocean Liner from way back, like the past century.

The back Case of the watch shows the Ocean Liner.

Ok, so I don’t get extra points for this display case. But I bet none of you have ever seen this before!
I found it at an antique store about 30 years ago for next to nothing. I think it was like fifty bucks.

What kind of dark magic is this?
Nothing like a smooth 5196! I was going to post a Sub caseback, but I think it would have been misinterpreted 🥴

Love the caseback of the sub. It's very under rated if you ask me.

Purposefully designed conical shape with circular brushing matching the case, high polish ring, and straigh brushed for the center to keep things simple, yet attention to details at the same time.

Im a big fan of the Longines Conquest case back. I got a blue dial and my wife got a silver dial and I had an engraving of our anniversary and our “safe word” 😂 (not really, but it describes our relationship). Serendipity.

Agree with you 100%. All those that complain about it’s “plainness”, I invite them to strap one on for a longer amount of time and report on actual comfort of wear vs. the highly decorated ones. I imagine that is exactly what PP was thinking of with the smoothness of your watch. Still on my list in WG or PL (if I get some crazy stock valuations).

Here is the back case of my Wempe Zeitmeister Chronometer watch, showing the original "rebuilt" Glashutte Observatory in Germany.
