You are welcome m171616! I completely agree with your comments. And of course it is the little details (it is said "Devil is in the details") that make a mass produced object like a watch a bit ...
... different to what other people own. Sometimes so little that just a few know what it is or what it means but for the owner means an additional charm or enjoyment the piece brings to him. I know the feeling!
Thank you for your good wishes and same to you: have a nice day and great week end and keep enjoying your beautiful watches.
Best, Abel

Good to see you joining us...

Hello m171616! Welcome to our place. I wish you´ll enjoy so much participating here. I love my 14060m. In my opinion the last of the classic Submariners. I´m very fond of the Explorer 2...
... as well. I have been wearing my 14060m in daily office work, vacationing at seaside and in sport scuba diving which was the purpose it was made for. A superb reliable and tough watch as all Submariners. Having perforated lugs is a plus for an easy cha...
Thanks Abel for the wonderful response.
It’s fascinating that a lot of people really enjoy their own watches for their own reasons. But yes collectors, well as much as growing up, we little by little want to do or be something different among our peers of among other people in general. As child...

LGF
I also sought out an LGF and whilst it probably doesn’t trade much of a premium it certainly looks a lot nicer IMO. On Hulks Rolex went from the stubby f back to a longer f so I think the market must agree.
