There are many faces!

I agree but that's exactly why it's playful It is stealthy but when light hits it in the right way it just glitters all of a sudden. Same with the back, I'm amazed at how much detail is in the rotor. When I looked at it under a loupe I noticed the PG logo on each rotor is not just a single etched hole, but there's lines inside it! (Sorry not sure how to better describe it). I could play with the rotors all day

The salmon strap adds to the character and matches the watch perfectly. I'm having a huge task to find an alternative strap that won't look too different. Even the presentation box is pleasantly unusual!

The contrast with the Habring is interesting. The Habring is simplistic, classy yet houses a rare complication sort of 'in secret'.

Thanks and congrats to you too Andrew! We the lucky owners owe this to the talented Herr Gerber and the amazing PuristS exec team for bringing this to us! Thanks again!

Two very different watches but I adore them the same! The Habring will still be my daily wearer, while the more whimsical Gerber P10 is going to be for weekend enjoyment! Both have lovely features to stare at all day long - the jumping seconds on the Habr...

Always great to see someone's growing collection of independent pieces -- your choices show real discernment. Best, Gary

Independents are very addictive...

.. almost like drugs Good thing they're not harmful to your health (but to the pocket). Thanks Gary! It's a very small collection of Indies I have but I'm taking time to enjoy the experience with each one of them!

Congratulations

Have you finished the chocolates already? Regards, Richard.

Not yet!

Thanks Richard! Actually I haven't even opened the box yet! Too consumed by the watch itself I like the black lume on it. It takes a little while to light up in the dark but is pretty amazing. Still trying to work out a strap alternative!

Congratulations, Sidney ...

Actually that's a great pair when you see them side-by-side. Interesting that you describe the Gerber as "whimsical", because I am seeing many sides to it. And many more than I expected. It has a stealthy side with the black lettering and 'industrial' cas...

"... there's lines inside it"

By: AndrewD : July 20th, 2011-18:11

"... there's lines inside it" reminded me of Dave Bowman's line from 2001: A Space Odyssey when approaching the Monolith: "... my God, it's full of stars!" But thanks for pointing it out, Sidney. It's not visible with (my) naked eyes, but obvious under a ...

Congrats!

Those are two nice watches which complement each other very nicely. Congrats on the PG P10.

Thanks Davo!

Have been a very satisfying year for me horologically!

They look like long lost cousins!

By: Hororgasm : July 20th, 2011-22:41

Great pair mate, congrats. I guess it's too early to tell which is your favourite? Best, Horo

Hard to pick a favourite

By: sidneyc : July 20th, 2011-23:56

Thanks Horo! You're right, in a way they look similar yet so different. When I ordered the Habring at the beginning of the year, I would not for one minute think that I would end up with 2 watches with black hands and markers, and in the space of a month ...
