Massive massive congrats Jim!
The antiqua is one of the OG indie timepieces and it’s hard enough to procure one, let alone two! Bravo. The deep space is such an incredible VH piece as well. The way the Tourb moves truly makes you feel like you’re floating in deep space.
I too have an FPJ Resonance and can say that the phenomenon is interesting — can’t wait to someday see in person how VH interprets his!
My Vianney Halter collection grew!!!
i own the RG Classic VH with the silver dial but this summer I acquired a perpetual calendar (platium) Antiqua (very rare) and a Deep Space tourbillon with purple accents from Mr, Halter himself. We had dinner in Paris and he personally delivered them bot...
Absolutely incredible watchmaker!
Huge congratulations on your newest incoming and your breathtaking collection! I’ve had a Classic on my wishlist for years. I still hope fate smiles on me for that one
Thanks for your reply BMR, these watches are special!
Along with the man himself, enjoy your Classic and I hope fate continues to smile on you…Jim
Boy Dchang81, didn’t we all miss understand Vianney and his genius?
He told me people made fun of him when he first introduced his Classic, believe me these watches where not cheap but Vianney did give me a great discount considering the prices on these today. A Classic recently sold at auction for $106K, maybe that will ...
Yes especially the Classic and Antiqua, the Deep Space and
The other new creations are unique in their own right…Jim
Huge congratulations!
Two masterpieces that have no peers, Vianney continues to stand out amongst Independents - he doesn't care about trends and his designs feel really timeless. Thank you for sharing!
My pleasure to share als, we are so fortunate to own these
Watches, like you said “they have no peers”…Jim
Wow wow wow! Amazing, congratulations! What an amazing experience to go with the amazing watches.
Really incredible pieces, I didn't even know the antiqua was made in platinum, it looks stunning! I love seeing works like this, truly grail level work produced from a singular and unique vision, congratulations 👏
Thank you for you kind words Fastwong
The platium one is very rare and beautiful, I love just looking at it and the winder it comes with is really cool as well…JIm
Very cool and unique pieces!
Love that you got to meet the man as well. Would be nice to see a post about your AS resonance since I can't remember seeing one on here.
Hi TeutonicCarFan…
Meeting Vianney was the highlight of my vacation, my wife and his girlfriend hit it right off also so we had a wonderful dinner and started a developing relationship. The AS resonance is unique as the balance wheels are connected unlike the FP Journe that...
Amazing horology masterpieces you have!
The fpj is phenomenal. The AS has a clutch mechanism connecting the balances. A different approach. Yours is great with that lacquer/enamel dial? Thanks for sharing. You have the consummate VH collection. Regards, Kevin
Very kind of you to say SALMAMQ8.
I was so fortunate on my timing to get these watches…JIM
Wow!!! Speechless
My dream watch (Perpetual Antiqua) that I will never ever be able to own Big congrats!
Massive massive congrats Jim!
The antiqua is one of the OG indie timepieces and it’s hard enough to procure one, let alone two! Bravo. The deep space is such an incredible VH piece as well. The way the Tourb moves truly makes you feel like you’re floating in deep space. I too have an ...
‘Hi Jardin, Vianney’s resonance
Will allow the balance wheels to sync going in both directions and the view of them from the window on the side is sooo cool…Jim
Absolutely fantastic collection !
I visit regularly Vianney in Ste Croix and love his watches even if I am not as lucky as you are to own all these beauties. He is not only incredibly talented but also such a kind person ! Your VH watches collection is amazing, you must be the last person...
:-) Mike your pictures and photography are much better than mine…
I believe Vianney only made 10 of the platinum and this is the last one, he truly is a very kind man. Thank you so much for the congratulations what a wonderful watch world we live in!… Jim
Congrats! Seems you're only missing the Trio now...
...the only one large enough for my wrist. ...
Thanks amanico
Yes the Deep Space is special and the purple accents sets my apart…Jim
That’s right captain, the final frontier…
And the new resonance + the Deep Space resonance or something very special and different, I love his imagination, thank you so much for the congratulations… Jim
Wow absolutely incredible masterpieces
Huuuge congrats and your VH collection couldn’t look better . All grails imho. Wear them in great health
Much thanks Watchonthewrist
I can’t wait to receive the other resonance and what the final version of deep space resonance as well… Jim
The deep space is especially wondrous Riddler
The deep space is especially wondrous, when you look at the inside of the watch with a loop it is just like being in space… Jim
I Fab yes it was very generous of Vianney to take the train to Paris to meet us…
It worked out well for him as well as he and his girlfriend took a little vacation and are originally from Paris, I will enjoy these very much thank you again… Jim
Jawdropping Vianny Halters
1 is already so hard to get, and you managed to get 3. Nice box design for the Deep Space Tourbillon.
The fortune is all ours !
You’ve built a really incredible collection, not just these from Vianney but the others too. They are not children, so at some point we will ask you to pick favourites! But let’s let these new additions mature in the collection a little first.
Hi Obeez, I should get the resonance this year still…Jim
Thank you so much for your congratulations, Watch collecting is so special and the people on this forum are so fun to share with… Jim
Amazing! What a fantastic additions!
Enjoy them joyfully! I am fortunate enough to own a rose gold Antiqua and a yellow gold Classic; so I very much appreciate Vianney’s work. But I must say that platinum Antiqua blows me away. Just wonderful! So lovely your experience with him also. Makes i...
Hello Ed, yes the platium one is special…
And I was fortunate to get it, also fortunate to start a personal relationship with Vianney…Jim
Thank you for reminding me....
why I liked and enjoyed looking at watches in the 1 st place. This post (and your replies in the comments section) in current times is a wonderful read for me, the story, the man, but moreover, I can sense your emotion of enjoyment and fun – which is grea...
What a kind and well thought out response sc16!
You comments are humbling to me, people make watches of all kinds and for all kinds of customers. I started falling in love with the independant watch world about 5 years ago and never turned back because of the people maybe more than the watches. I’ve be...
Thank you so much HOROLOGY75
I am so fortunate to have so many grill watches, many have help me along the way to influence my decisions, my hope is for you to get as many griail watches as you possibly can, good luck… Jim
These are definitely fascinating time machines to say the least!
Vianney was really the first one to step out and show the world how big it really is when it comes to one’s mind and creativity. VH is go different than most watch makers but isn’t it cool that the likes of MB&F, FP Journe, GB and so many others followed ...
Hi Alex thank you for the congratulations!
Yes the Antiqua has been one of my grills for quite a while and sometimes timing is everything… Jim
Congrats on the ultimate collection in horology
Because that’s simply what it is - the last word. And collectors like you are so vitally important to support independent horology on the level of VH, so thanks from this enthusiast for doing that. Best wishes and best of luck with these extraordinary wor...
