And a very nice Speedmaster! Maybe it helps a little with your diet to know that you are not alone with it. Since three months I am on it too (with noticable results). We can do it!

Actually I was beyond 100kg. Hoping that you will start loosing pounds at a higher rate soon, Art.

This morning I am sitting at the terrace of a little Hotel at Lake Como and I decide to go back to the buffet looking for a little treat to close breakfast. What I found was a little apple patisserie, by concidence just like the Captain described it. It t...  

Hello Martin, That’s a fabulous view with your delicious apple patisserie … well played ! As you say, well balanced between sweet and fruity is the real deal ! Best regards Captain

But meeting someone with much in common is the greatest pleasure of all. Best Captain

The watch was a giveaway for sure! And enjoy the family holiday 👋🏻

I´m happy for both of you. I´m sure you had a great time. I would have loved to join both of you. Great shots and watches and enjoy so much your annual treat! Happy weekend! Abel

We really had a great time. Maybe, one day, we can reach you "at the end of the world", I've never been there and I'd really love to... Have a great weekend too!

May be I can fulfill my dream of diving in the Mediterranean some day and you can be my buddy there or you may visit my Country of course which I feel you would enjoy. Enjoy your weekend! Best, Abel

;-)

The value of time is immeasurable. Two seconds in the right place with dear people and the perfect watch can't be surpassed by anything. ...  

Time in itself is a treat in life. Good shot of your Lange, do you have a wrist shot to tempt us with ?

Is a treat in its own way 🙌🏻👌🏻

Have the best weekend. ...  

Love your matching the dial to the cover 👌🏻

I love the dial and your choice of book. Good looking combo !

Sam Adams with your lovely life partner (wife) in a vintage scenario (198 years old place with a 54 years old watch)... nothing beats quality time with your beloved ones ...

Hello Ludi, It’s good to see that you both share the passion for watches. Your shots look very good especially the last shot of you both together, very touching. Best Captain

...  

Enjoy a nice and relaxed weekend dear Bill! Best cordial regards, Abel

Have a wonderful weekend.

The food, the wine and the watches, all perfect as treats for living the good life ! Your choice of watches are sublime. Best Captain

Hi all Just indulging my sweet tooth If we're talking treat - that still leaves booze Cheers JML ...  

Truly fabulous shots, making me thoroughly hungry 😁

Might be that I too many alarms, but not convinced about that. Remember n +1 is the appropriate number Cheers JML

Oris and a cherry bakewell, Reverso and double macarons ! You are living the dream my friend ! Best Captain

The beer shots are a whole other category & there are many of them 🍻

… but all of them make life better! They can be delicious and tasty treats like cofee, drinks, chocolates or meals… A treat can also be relaxing and reading a book… Of course to drive an special car can be a nice treat too… But best treats are those we ke...  

And a fabulous raft of shots to demonstrate them 😊👍🏻 Great watch / treat combinations indeed!

Each and every one is a treat, both your selection of watches and treats gets my approval, but especially the last one 😉 Best Captain

As some of you know, experimenting with straps is a treat for me… 😂 As is driving. Road trips are best but even the daily commute can be fun 🏎️ Exploring new places… Or revisiting old ones… Reading… Spending time with kids 🤹🏻‍♂️ Enjoying nature… And winte...  

Keep enjoying your weekend and watches and treats my dear friend. Best cordial regards, Abel

Tomorrow it’s cleaning the car of the signs the children left over the past six months, so I can return it on Monday 🤦🏻‍♂️ But it’s holidays from Tuesday onwards, so there’s something to look forward to 😁🤞🏻

Have a great Sunday in spite of the cleaning session! Best cordial regards, Abel

. . . that's one of the off-the-menu specialties at The Rainbow Bar and Grill. Miguel made it a few times while I was present for a regular customer who also fancied raw beef. Remind me when you visit LA. ;-)

Will certainly not forget 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Hello my friend, Your colourful straps are a treat for us to see. I particularly like the pink strap combo on your Laine. Best Captain

...  

Nice shot in company of a tasty treat. Enjoy your weekend. Best, Abel

. . . with the first coffee . . . . . . of the morning? ☕️ ...  

... our beloved Flightmaster isn´t it? Enjoy your Sunday my dear friend. Abel

. . . had to wait until now to wear it because it requires a scarce 20/14 mm strap. Finally sourced one this week, so it's getting its maiden voyage on my wrist this weekend. Best, Art

It has a lot of character and presence on the wrist. Very interesting. I’m happy to know you’ve found the correct strap and now you can enjoy wearing it so much! Have a nice Sunday Art! Abel

. . . combined with an equally odd dial (no minutes markers) and a movement that was a joint venture with Tissot. They were made in the early '70s for just a few years. On my wrist now for the third straight day, and enjoying it more than expected.

I didn’t see one at the Omega museum in Switzerland.

. . . (or Cobra, as it's also known), here's a macro . . . . . . for your viewing pleasure. Notice the absence of minute marks, unusual for a cushion case design. Tool watch case, dress dial . . . not often seen. ...  

Nice choice of watch for this shot, it looks excellent with your coffee. Best Captain

A couple of treats - one for consumption and one for the ages - 350th Anniversary coming up in a few years😊 ...  

Lock & Co was founded in 1676 and has been making hats at its location on St. James’ Street, London ever since. Well worth a visit - even if you don’t wear a hat. This particular model is the Fairbanks Trilby - of which I have 3. It’s a bit less overpower... 

I remember that companies used to have hat codes as an element of the dress codes 😊

Your hat shot is my kind of quality treat. Superb ! Best Captain

I just put the CDV back on its Serapian strap for the winter. The summer months here are hot and humid so I generally go for straps with a natural rubber lining.

... and your preference for rubber lined straps. In my personal case my skin doesn´t bear rubber straps contact for long periods so I can´t rely on them in my watches. That´s truly a shame. Keep enjoyin this beautiful chrono so much! Best, Abel

I think you get the idea!😉 ...  

That you enjoy mandalas? 😂 What a raft of superb watch shots 👏🏻🙌🏻👌🏻

. . . well. 🤑

This amazing barista has finished college and has moved on to greener pastures!😢 ...  

. . . in the Museum of Modern Art.

There's some great Seiko's in there! Cheers JML

So many wonderful watches (with some of my personal favorites among them) makes difficult to choose just one... or two. I´m specialy in love with your Chopard with its stunning dial. Enjoy them so much and have a nice and relaxed weekend. Abel

Good to have you with us Mach. I absolutely love your watch choices and it’s difficult to choose just one. Your Chopard looks particularly nice with a coffee. Best Captain

It was just another typical late evening last night, until.................. Beware the scarecrow! . . Within Sin City, the Zombies are hungry for brains! . . . Evil Sexy Nurses are trying to seduce humans with alcoholic jello shots! ..... i... i... i can...  

Seems that the fantastic lume of your Panerai kept the Zombies at bay. Have a nice and relaxed Sunday! Abel

Hope you have a great week ahead.

Your Panerai was a perfect choice 👍 Best Captain

The PAM 1118 seemed like a natural with all the blacklight and glowing spooky scenes. The X1 lume is sooooo bright that it doubled as a flashlight within the five Haunted Houses we visited.

Plus many of the usual park lights were off, so rollercoasters were far more fun. If you have the time, well worth it imho.

and absolutely loved it. “The body factory” was seriously scary 😧… and a lot of fun.

My brian hiccupped as we go to both.

Treats. Hello Captain and friends. Well the superb Indian Summer we are experiencing here is a real treat for me. Every Saturday (weather permitting) is a treat I look forward to Spending time with like minded friends And my trusted timekeeper close and s...

Relaxed treats look wonderful in your photos. The first shot is dreamy and reminds me of my late afternoons spent fishing. Best Captain
