Well, Bill
The watches that came and went in 2013 were and are just amazing. I must admit that I was sad to see a couple of pieces in particular leave your stable, but I am getting more used to your "nothing is forever" collecting. ;-) I can't wait to see what is in store for 2014 as well as the return of the two currently out for service.
When I can get my act together in January, I will try to start a VC ephemera thread as I did manage to add a few new non-watch items during 2013.
Best wishes for 2014.

My 2013 Watch Year in Review
For the past several years Ive been giving annual state of the collection reports about what has come in and out of my collection over the past year. Please indulge me in my 2013 edition of my year in VC. First in was the Overseas Chronograph North Ameri...
You have let the " Les Historiques " Black Dial go???
Damn, that is a big surprise! I would have bet on the keeper side of this Watch! Best, Bill. Nicolas
Did Bill say that Nicolas?
I didn't interpret it that way but I may be wrong. In any case, I recall we asked him to sell to us first if ever he wanted to sell haha. That was when he posted hos acquisition of this magical timepiece Cheers Robin
I fear, yes...
" It was a pleasure to own this reference again (long ago I had a yellow gold Historiques Chronograph with silver dial), but it too found a good home on another forum member’s wrist. "
Noooooo. ..
You are right Nicholas. I thought he meant the yellow gold version found a new owner initially. Cheers Robin
I did let the black dial Historiques find another home.
You snooze, you lose. :-) Bill
I only took a quick nap!
That was quick Bill! But then again... with such a fantastic timepiece, once you put it on sale, it would be have found a new home within a quick nap's time! Yes I snoozed, I lost :) Nonetheless, I can always look back at the post and the beautiful pictur...
a very good year for you Bill
Thanks for sharing your posts in 2013. The VC brand forum and the VC brand have always been one of my favorite here. Happy new year to you too Bill! May 2014 be an even better year for all of us VC fans! Cheers Robin
Quite impressive
A fine series of VCs Bill. Looking forward to what you share with us in 2014. Happy New Year.

Good year for you, Bill.
Hope 2014 gets even better. Wonder if you could share a wristshot of your XXL vintage? Sorry to learn about the saphire on your PW... do you have any suspicions how this happened? All the best, my friend!
XXL wristshot
Hi Radek, It's good to see you on the forum. I'd like to see you back into the VC game soon. :-) Bill ...
Looking good...
Let me know when the time comes to part with it ;-) I reserve the right of first refusal or as they say around here the right of first night ;-) By the way, I have a little surprise up my sleeve for SIHH.
Shocked!
Radek desires a yellow gold watch?!?!? Can't wait to see what surprise you have in store for the good folks at SIHH (Since I'm not attending I think a private email revealing all is appropriate). :-) Bill
