all that sun is bad for the skin and fades the dial of the watch
thats my excuse for my pale appearance anyway 
lovely watch Patrice. diving alarm watches are a superb combination. mine might only be a cheap version, but it doesnt matter if it gets wet and the alarm wakes me every morning.

It is Friday (at least on the East Coast of the U.S.)....this one for the weekend...
I continue to be intrigued, fascinated and infatuated (if not more) with the ABR... HAGWE tempusfugit This message has been edited by AnthonyTsai on 2009-08-24 09:58:41...

I wonder if we have any Purists living in the UTC +14 time zone? Strictly speaking they should start off this weekly thread. That’s the Line Islands in the Republic of Kiribati. I have never visited, but I used to collect stamps from Christmas Island when...
I have tried both--the red and the black....
The black is for more "formal" wear (to work) and the red is for play (weekends, etc.). I also have others including leather and stingray but I do like the silicone straps. Changing them was a pain initially but they seem to get easier with use. Living on...

...but Christmas Island is NW of Australia - about half-way between Broome and Sri Lanka. Like its 'sister islands' some distance to the west - the Cocos Keeling Islands - it is an Australian protectorate. Its history is fairly interesting, but the histor...
And next you’re going to tell me …

Not my watch and what a stunner this is
Last week I had a chance to see and try the new Senator Sixties Square and I must say that this watch is really my cup of tea. Everything is right; I love the size, the domed crystal and the back of the watch. But I must say that I prefer the version with...
Other combinations?
Thanks Geo, I really like the Senator Sixties line and this version looks very nice. It doesn’t hurt that you captured it brilliantly in this image. Both the silver dial you link to and the black look good; personal choice. My favourite round Sixties is t...
I agree
Hi Andrew, the time only is gorgeous too. These classic re issues are breath taking. GEO
.... but the black dial ...
fits perfect with the color of your shirt Thanks for the wonderful picture. Oliver
the square senator sixties is a very very nice watch.
the square cushion design is now an unusual sight so its nice to see it faithfully bought back by GO. looks great on your not too slim wrist as 19cm is over 7.5 inches. best Graham
A perfect picture of WIS delight
The peeking cuff shot is one of my favorites. Great watch! Larry
Hi, Geo - could I trouble you to post this photo on the G O forum? . . .
. . . thanks much, Art
The watch benefits greatly...
...from your usual stylish photo Geo. It may not be yours yet, but we suspect it may be soon! Cheers, pplater.
Have to agree, Geo
This one is really sexy, and is even more beautiful in the flesh! HAGWE. Nicolas
not quite Friday here in California, but
here's my contribution anyway, from a visit earlier this week to a familiar destination in Anaheim: And this may not be the best wrist shot you've ever seen, but I bet it's the best wrist shot you've seen taken from an iPhone into a mirrored surface on a ...
LOL!
You win my favorite post of the day award! Hope you had fun at "the happiest place on Earth." I work for a Disney competitor, so must temper my enthusiasm. LOL! Cheers, Daos
JLC Today
Raining cats and dogs here in Singapore. My mood remains cheery every time I look at this piece of pure beauty and simplicity....
With such a JLC on your wrist, Flamenco
Even a rainy day is a Sunny day! Best, my friend; Nicolas
With some embarrassment...
...today's companion is an unacceptably dirty little piece. Wicked pplater! The VC Malte chrono deserves to be treated with a little more care: Cheers, pplater....
One of my Favs !!
And I do prefer the WG over other precious metals as well ....... Nice Photo !!
You must have a green thumb then!
Lovely photograph, my friend. Hope you enjoy the weekend! Cheers, Daos
A cool & relaxed picture like we ...
now them from you This AP is a real classic and rarely seen in this days. Thanks for sharing. Oliver
great pics, as always! Very nice to see more AP's showing up in our community!
Mind if I use it sometime for the AP forum masthead on ThePuristS? TM
Very colorful!
Your PPro ABR is very festive on its red strap! Here's my choice after wearing the Stowa all week. HAGWE! Daos...
Thanks!
This one is ok, but I'm hoping to post some better pictures soon! Hope your weekend is going well, so far. Cheers, Daos
The "plain" beauty ...
of this special watch is covered very well. Thanks for sharing. Oliver
another watch i'm very tempted by Daos.
its nice to see a pic of just a portion of the dial rather than every shot being on the wrist. i must start taking more interesting pics. best Graham
Hi, Oliver!
Thanks! I'll have to share some other macros I've taken recently over in AHCI. I think I have a few better efforts. I'm certainly enjoying the watch, and appreciate your kind words about it. Cheers, Daos
The Habring is quite striking....
And yes, the red strap is for festive wear. And it goes with my black dog and his red collar--we make quite a pair when he takes me for our regular walks! tempusfugit
You'll have to take a picture...
...of you with your red strap and your dog wearing his! Cheers, Daos
blue for me
I m so happy to have my baby back after an intense Rolex revision... have a good weeked everybody !...
Fantastic!
What a rare bird--all blue bezel--excellent patina--perfectly matched hands and dial! (not to mention the UAE coat)
Good to see this Beauty back home, Ryan
One of my ( if not MY ) absolute favourite 1675! Best, Nicolas
Me LUC Regulateur again :-)
Just rewound it today after 8.5 days with the LUC winding tool. Little bits of fun I had this am....
i'd really like to see a pic of the winding tool attached to the watch
i think its just like a cranking handle, but would love to see it in action. best Graham

Great photos! There's a lot of character . . .

Did I miss something, Fernando ?
Or you just added this lovely monster in your collection??? If yes, congrats! I must admit that it is growing on me more and more. Will just have to do the wrist test... Best, my friend. Nicolas
AP for today, ...
but the picture is not from today as it is raining here. Looking forward to a cosy weekend with some time for reading ... ... if I don´t have to look at all these little details ... HAGWE Oliver...
I tried that very watch on this week...
Very tempting. Yours looks beautiful! I am torn between the 15300 and the 15202. The timing of your photos is perfect for me. Thanks! respo
that book has a very modern appeal Oliver
the search for eternal youth fits well with todays addiction to health and beauty. you look so young that i think you already have a picture on your hard drive which is ageing as we speak best Graham
LOL! they tortured me...
LOL! they tortured me and forced me to tell.........honest :) G
The question is: V8 or V12
Both are very nice and I also went through this process. I choose V8 for several reasons: Probably lower service efforts Seconds hand No frame around the date "old" movement has to come with an "old" watch (A, ... Series) ... Anyway, you cant´t go wrong. ...
All good points
Had not noticed that about the date window. Not so interested in the central seconds hand and the additional thickness of the movement/watch. I did try on the 15300 this week, as I mentioned, and it was lovely with the blue dial. It just felt great on the...
classic decision, Respo, I know of a forum where you can lots
of different points of view on the subject to help you sort out the decision! ;-) TM
Thanks, I have been lurking around there and doing lots of reading...
...and research. been speding some considerable time there lateley. LOL. I think I have decided, but now need to find one.
Nice one!
I really like the look of the RO. It's a super successful design IMO. I'd be pleased to own one someday. What size case is yours? 36mm? 39mm? Nice wristshot BTW. Some heavy reading too -- The Portrait of Dorian Gray in German (maybe)? HAGWE! Daos
Well, my WE are excellent, as they last a whole Week
This is the most perfect definition of " Holidays ".. Best, my friend. Nicolas

its that hat thats important Jeff. my dad who is 80 has had several large melanoma's removed from his balding head after years of working in the garden with no hat. on another tack, a funny story. the landlady of one of our 2 pubs is in her 50's and has N...
LOL!!!
If she gets exposed to the sun only 4 measly times a year, I am assuming that she must be pastier than plaster!!! LOL!!! In my neck of the woods you get so used to the sun that whenever I travel someplace and I do not get to see it for a week or so, I sta...
too funny
I won't complain about that. Overcast today so we go out tomorrow. Spend three days on the Island "Catalina" last week. Being on the water is like heaven on earth. A+
back to the drawing board for me this weekend
