Wash your mouth out with soap, Graham! Obama may be president -elect of Australia also (given its de facto status as the 51st state of the Union), but that's where the connection ends!
(Errrrr..... said with undying respect and affection for our stateside brethren, of course...).

It's friday...let's share our passion !

Impeccable taste
Beautiful looking JLC skeleton perpetual. I like the colour of the strap - perfect match with your shirt! Now you got me wanting one, LOL.
Thanks, my friend
A very cool watch, indeed... Not a pic of the day, because the weather is not nice today, but I can tell you that Hoey moon is still here!!! Best. Nicolas

Don't have to be asked twice, Graham...

Pure Quality. i cant see...
Pure Quality. i cant see me ever offloading my Grieb & Benzinger, mainly for Jochens exquisite work, a dying art that he's resurrected so well. what i cant understand is why the only retailer for Jochens work and lots of other rare German stuff is in US? ...

oops sorry, for some reason i thought you were one of our US brethren. my utmost apologies for what can only be a graven insult to a member of her majesties commonwealth :) same respect ect to stateside brethren etc etc G
3 different Guillochages on the dial...WOW, pplater!
Impressive finish, a bit ala Breguet, with these special hands and different guillochages... Yes, really awesome! Best, my friend. Nicolas
You always...
...have a kind word, Nicolas - merci . But: do you see only three guillochages? ;-) Benzinger's attention to detail elsewhere on this watch is impressive: did you notice how the hands all finish at an appropriate point on the dial or chapter ring? See how...
Something new, something newer
44mm seems a bit too large for her wrist, but I figure she'll grow into it At 7 lbs 15 oz, 20.5 inches, I figure it'll take another 18 or so years, but it'll be worth the wait HAWGE! Cheers, Dom...
Best wishes!
Dom, My most sincere congratulations on the arrival of your lovely daughter! Thank you for sharing her birth with us, and I wish the best for you and your family. How will you name her? PAM? SUBmarina? BOMBA? LOL!!! Cheers! Alex
Sincere congratulations for the beauty Dom. Not the watch off course
...I'm talking about the beautiful girl. Best picture of the day for sure. What was the watch by the way? Sincerely Ahmet
I was joking about the watch my friend...
I know what it is. But next to the beauty of your daughter, it looked so insignificant to me; that is why I asked what it was. By the way, spend as much time as you can with your baby daughter. Being a father is the best thing that can happen to a man. Ch...
Bravissima!....
Congratulations to you and your 'significant others' Dom. Cheers, pplater.

Hey, Alejandro
I just picked something I was running after for a long time, my friend... You see the Pola 65? OK, a Mini pola 65... Exactly the same dial... Just have to wait a bit more to show you my Pola 65 Re Edtion... And as I'm also on the list for the Re Edition o...
