What s your wish list?

After months and months changing my mind every 5 minutes here is my wish list for the future.Probably it will change again due to new releases but I'm confident that it will be very hard to replace one of the following watches as" I've been loving them too long" like Otis Redding used to sing.Here s the list and why........

1)DE BETHUNE DB 25.    My favourite independent by miles,these guys deserve the recognition of the whole watch world as they are true innovators.Their watches are to die for in terms of quality and finish,plus a captivating sleek design very difficult to find in an era where watches tends to look all the same.A breath of fresh air!!!!(by the way I like the blue titanium not the more classic one!)

2)LANGE and SOHNE ZEITWERK (white gold).No need to praise LaS for their quality of course,I just want to say that the ZW jumping hours and minutes are one of the most mesmerizing complications I've ever seen.This watch is just magic.The wg stands out by a mile ,the pt version is a touch dull to me.

3)JAEGER LE COULTRE DUOMETRE A CHRONOGRAPHE.The ultimate fudroyante,amazing layout of the dial and great concept.When all the functions are working this watch can hypnotize you.My fav is the pink gold verion as it creates contrast with the dial.Again the pt version is a bit too dull.I've seen the yellow gold lim ed just in pics and it looks fantastic;to be seen in metal.

4)HABRING2 TOURBILLON3D.I love the fact of owning a tourbi that can be used every day :solid,robust,precise and most of all in a SS case.The ultimate in understatement IMHO.

5)ULYSSE NARDIN SONATA SILICIUM.I had the pleasure to see (amanico 's) "regular"sonata and the watch is a marvel.The silicium version must be a dream.It s a great and useful complication and so poetic.Plus I don t own any striking watch and this is my favourite.

6)GLASSHUTTE ORIGINAL SENATOR CHRONOMETER.Its a chronometer that fully deserve such a name,when you pull the crown,it hacks,it zero resets and you can precisely regulate the minute hand.Now that is a chronometer!!!!!!I absolutely love it.

So this is my list and of course I 'd need to win the lottery to get them all anytime soon!!!!But we have plenty of hope.

So whats yours ???????????Mo.
