I love your Reverso. Somehow the gold cases suit them so well.
Thank you for joining in. š Yes, Spangles was certainly forthright but I think it was just his style. Iāve never seen that he was bad or impolite to anyone. Someone described him as very New Yorker. I think that kind of made sense. I also had some nice talks with him via PM and he certainly also was knowledgeable.
I will miss him too.
Thank you for your kind words. Enjoy your weekend š¤
F.P. Friday - Tribute to our friend Spangles - please join
Dear friends, Less than a week ago, we lost our friend and long time member "Spangles - Dr. Tabby" to cancer. If you didnt see it already, there is an announcement post on the "Time Out" forum with many beautiful words of appreciation for "Spangles" or Ch...
Itās the only Journe I haveā¦
I hope you guys donāt get bored of it! I certainly havenāt ...
Bored? Are you crazy. We love it š
Itās a very unusual Resonate and I am always grateful when people make the effort of sharing their pictures. Enjoy your weekend and that beautiful watch. Christian
This is a very nice gesture Christian.
I have only very recently joined the forum, so unfortunately did not get to know him very well - but such kind gestures from the community tells me everything about what positive of an impact he had.
Yes, he was a great guy.
Straight shooter but very on point. Iām very happy that you joined us. Have a great weekend
I donāt have any FPJās and Iām just wearing this Reverso today.
I was very sorry to hear about Spangles. I remember some of his posts being āforthrightā(!) but he was very well informed and I always enjoyed reading what he had to say. RIP. All the best, Jon ...

What a sad news...
I've hardly known Spangles, unfortunately, but I liked his Pirate Cat avatar and can only feel very sorry for the loss many of you feel hurtfully. Joining the farewell with my LF and a nod to his very special MOP. Best, Emmanuel ...
What a gorgeous and classy LF, Emmanuel
I love your picture. Very classy. Thank you for joining in. Have a wonderful weekend š¤
Here's to a private jet flight to a better place
I know he had received an Eichi and so this is the closest I could come to that watch: Mike ...
Thank you, Mike, for your kind words.
I had a lot fun looking at Credor during my recent trip to Japan. Iām still hoping I can add one some day.
Thanks for sharing this one Christian.
This was the watch Spangles wore the very first time I met in person. At time well before Journe was as widely know and popular as today. And a watch, despite its beauty, that was not seen much or talked about much. It was a very much an āon pointā choice...
There it is in all its glory. I love your VB - I love all three and Iām not even sure about a preference
And I do get what youāre saying about this one in the gold case being the better of the two. It is a little master piece. I hope you enjoy it now and then. Youāre right that Spangles MOP also has to be seen in context of a different time. Not the obvious ...
Beautiful remembrance of our great friend, Christian.
So glad you posted this. I can remember Chris coming late to lunch with Ken, Jay and me at an Italian joint in Mid-town, wearing that. Hereās to Spangles, the Pirate Cat. Thatās my wrist wearing Chrisās Frodsham in May, 2021, right after he got it. ...
Thanks Mike š¤
That Frodsham is one of those watches I always think of when I think of Spangles. Itās such a refined choice showing that he was a genuine connoisseur. Same as what Jay said with his MOP dials. He had exceptional taste besides being knowledgeable and witt...
I was looking for a picture of Chris wearing my RQ and couldnāt find one.
I then remembered that when he and I met that day I didnāt have the Resonance-it was back in Switzerland because it didnāt āresonateā the way it was supposed to when I first got it. I donāt think Chris ever got to see it in person. ...
I bet he would have loved your RQ.
It is such a beautiful piece. Especially your configuration.
