Congrats, Tim!
The Richeville is a nice offer for those who love tonneau Watches.
I love the 2 subdials configuration a lot, on yours.
At a certain moment, maybe 10 years ago, I was considering this one ( Picture shamelessly stolen on the net, maybe is it to be credited to E.W.C in Boston? ) :
And I would certainly have bought it, if it was a 2 Subdials Chrono WITHOUT date.
Another one still impresses me a lot, this one:
I will come back to this one as son as possible, but in the meantime, enjoy yours, my dear friend.
And welcomle in the GP world. you will see, it is a wonderland.
Best,
Nicolas
Richeville
2013 has seen a shift in my taste to more conservative styles of watch. It started last year looking at vintage 3 handers and progressed from there to getting a bit obsessed with "smart". Until now all my watches were round and with my first new watch thi...

Thanks Nicholas!
I agree with you completely on the sub dials/date thing. I dont have a problem with three sub dials and a date window but i also dont like it at the 5 o'clock position. I personally think its a shame that manual chronographs went out of fashion other than...
We are on the same line about manual Chronos.
But there is a solution... In the Vintage Wolrd, for the moment. A nice 30 CH is still affordable, as well as some great Minervas or Lemanias. And honestly, they are hard to beat! Best, Nicolas
More chronos posts will come.
It is a kind of Pandora's Box... A 13ZN iis in my priorities, for this year... Best, Nicolas.
Excellent choice
Very good catch, in fact, I’m in desperate search for a 2710 myself. The one I’m hunting for is with the Arabic numerals, like in the below picture: I already own 2 Richevilles (2750 and 27610). At some point I also want to get a 27650, but not yet sure w...
Nice!
I cant believe I never paid much notice to this line before - your collection is great, congrats! When I was looking I didnt see any with numerals, best of luck finding yours! Best, Tim
Awesome watch
Love that shape. I would love to pick something up in that shape, although time only at this time. No need for another chrono...congrats on a great pickup!
Converted.
Thanks very much! I honestly didnt like anything but round, shape wise. However, this watch has completely changed my mind. I hear you on the chrono thing but I just couldnt resist another, ha! Best, Tim
I'm infected too!
I also only possessed round watches so far and felt the desire to purchase a dress watch...and completely fell in love with the GP Richeville 2765 (check out the pic). ...
Nice!
I really like this dial set up and color combo, congrats!! What are the dimensions, it looks a little bigger than my 2710?
side by side
This should give you a better idea. While in the pics you see a 2750 with a 27610, the 2750 is identical in shape to the 2710 and the 27610 is also same case as 27650. The dial is approx. the same size as you can see, but the 27610 is curved and thicker a...
gotcha...
useful, thanks. I can see what you mean, i think where the strap hugs the case too it also can give that bigger look. All in all, i think its a cool family of watches. I really like your gold 27610! Thanks, Tim
