it's been awhile and after a long time it was back on my wrist ..and then there are these moments that it just blows me away.

I made some pics while on my way to get some lunch ...I just hope it looks that way on my wrist as well. I took some pics while walking and no..i did not bump into anyone as i was aware of my surroundings...

Oh here i stood still....

in this below pic, i just can't help the feeling that it just looks like it is a digitally enhanced pic copy pasted on my wrist,

which isn't the case...amazing!

Oh, btw....i forgot to grab lunch and walked back to the office without food...but somehow the hunger was gone...

Kind regards,

Sc16

Key Points from the Discussion

The captivating dial of the Moser can be so mesmerizing that it makes one forget about daily necessities like lunch.
Some collectors believe that if a watch doesn't consistently evoke love, it should be removed from the collection due to the abundance of other tempting options.
The feeling that a watch's appearance on the wrist looks 'digitally enhanced' is a testament to its stunning visual impact, even if it creates a sense of detachment for the owner.
The allure of certain watches, particularly when seen in forum photos, can reignite appreciation even if the owner experiences an on-again, off-again relationship with the piece.
Many enthusiasts experience a similar 'pining' for such beautiful watches, often limited to admiring them through online photos.
