Somehow ... Nut by Omega
Here we go ... (Not my watch ... yet?) A great weekend to all, Nilo...
I wish but ...
The owner is like some sort of the "black hole" of a watch collector. What goes in ... never goes out. I'm working with him on a long term project that is to take pics of his watches and then ... who knows, maybe an ebook. Cheers, Nilo
Great dial on that piece
I hope you can share a few of your friends pieces here with us. It's great to live vicariously through others watches. I do it all the time! Andrew
Nut about Omega…?
Me too! Wonderful photos! Just wish I could find the right Speedmaster for me… Best Blomman
I love your winter light ...
... so dark and brooding. We are stuck in the intensity of summer at the moment. Not so many opportunities for great photos. The Rolex is the perfect accompaniment to winter. Andrew
A suggestion for the future, Livius: an . . .
. . . owl figurine would be a most fitting companion for your Minerva. Outstanding imagery, as usual. Cordially, Art
Ah, peanuts…
And Explorer II goes well together! Thank you for the effort, Fernando! Best Blomman
feeling nuts, but only dried fruit in my healthy snack pack
however, my watch is going backwards which is totally nuts i'm at the end of my second week of a big diet hence the healthy snack packs. despite the very filling slim shakes my stomach is going nuts and tying itself up in knots. it'll be worth the sufferi...

You crack me up G. What about a dalliance then ?
Is it the same as a liaison ? HAGWE. Cheers,dreamer...
Liaisons? . . .
. . . as in, more than one at a time? As we say in the States, "U da Man!" I'm still recovering from the last tête-à-têtes ;-) . . ....
just one would do me...
just one would do me Art. just got back from pub with great rock band. chatted to blonde landlady for ages (fingers crossed) and drank a bit too much to type. i did walk all the way there and all the way back though. G for gagging for it...
It's not worth it Graham...
the outcome can cause more suffering; if you know what I mean....
But like watches ...
... we keep lining up for more! Hope she's not YOUR landlady, G. Sounds more complicated that a Patek Sonnerie. ;-) A...
perhaps i should have said...
perhaps i should have said 'Publican'. she's runs the pub. what we over here call 'the Landlady'. it could be complicated, but at our age and 2 divorces everything is complicated best G...
Thanks for the clarification.
Most things translate well across to the antipodes, but i get it now. Landlords and landladies own the house you rent over here. Well, there are worse things than free beer. ;-) Hope she doesn't read PuristS yet. A
thanks Nilo, its one...
thanks Nilo, its one of those funky display jobbies, but is well built with a hefty 42mm steel case, 100m wr, eta inside. as for the diet, i think it will take a while. i dont understand how i got so fat as i eat loads of fruit and veg. 12 1/2 stone and 3...

thanks Anaesdoc. ' Very classy watch with a slightly weird touch '. i like that and fully agree about the similarities to a Nomos. the clean simple lines, numerals etc. very much like this one. best Graham...
LOL, yes…
That is a nutty watch! Best Blomman This message has been edited by blomman on 2012-01-29 14:54:33...

its just 'alternative' Blomman. ask Horo as i think he's got one as well. best G
i think your right, he...
i think your right, he got all of the asian ltd editions. i just got the standard brown dialled 2 hander and cream dialled single hander. both very limited (66 and 99), but some are still for sale. its a shame they couldnt get the second hand to go backwa...
Lovely 5513 Tyler
Is that a gilt dial, meters first with faded bezel? Did I miss anything? One day you have to tell me where to hunt for such vintage beauties. Best fernando
Spot on, Fernando.
This just came back from service. I can see you are coming over to this side of the waters. The good news is you will have amble choice of venue being where you at. Regards Tyler
Thanks. Not new, had it since last year.
I brought over to the GTG last year. I had it on blue bezel for a short while. This is how the watch look originally. I just have it service so I put on back the old bezel and a new pair of straps. Regards Tyler
...Not today......
.... we have snow since last night.., but SOON Hagwe and best to all Hans This message has been edited by hans_jorgen_1968 on 2012-01-27 03:51:54...
Two beautiful classics - just watching, no nibbling allowed!
Even if I miss the nut theme (probably because I am too nuts ), this is my pic for today: a vintage Seamaster and an orchid blossom - two charming classic beauties. If I had to choose, I would know what to select! Kind regards anaesdoc...
That would have been my guess concerning you, Nico!
Of course I would do so as well. Don´t know how people on a florist forum would decide though .
Thanks, blomman!
Yes, we watch nuts would go for the same things . Kind regards, anaesdoc
Okay, from my cheapy cell phone camera..
disclaimer: the watches are NOT mine, but generously borrowed for a few days Both at the office and I just couldn't focus on the job! HAGWE! Ken...
The cell phone is the only cheap thing!
Hi Ken, awesome watches you have borrowed there. I surely could where none of those at work (not meaning the possible damage): either I would constantly look at the tourbillon or listen to the MR - i.e. eyes and ears were diverted from there duties! My pe...
With the better camera....
.. although there is no "nut" here, I admit that borrowing and photographing this masterpiece is an act of "nuts" Ken...
Terrific image, J! I have to admit . . .
. . . that when I first saw your heading, soup came to mind ;-) . . .
I think it's because way back when . . .
. . . soup was the first course served in many American households, and nuts - usually walnuts, filberts, and almonds - were served after dessert, after the table had been cleared and everyone had retired to the living room. Gosh, I miss the good ol' days...
Rolex 1675 GMT pure classic - Jeans Chic
This one deserve a special post which I will work on. We talk about the classics which are out of reach. This is a classic that is still within reach. HAGWE. Bill Full report coming soon. Rolex 1675 GMT...
Bravo, Bill. Another power pic.
Every time I see a wristshot of yours I keep thinking about the book "Old man and the sea" Then I notice from another post that the hair is actually blonde not gray Here's to the "blonde man and the sea" with his GMT Regards Tyler
You are to kinf my friend
But I really like the connection with the sea part. HAGWE Bill
nice one Bill!
great dial and insert, superbe hands, love the patina, spectacular shot! It is true that some 6542 are spectacular but, but...a good 1675 does a good job too! Matt
It is the base when it comes to gmt's
A real work horse and a good place to start in the vintage segment along side a good old 5513. HAGWE Bill
Bill, you also need to post...
how you achieve those amazing wristshots! Great watch, look forward to your post!
1st generation matte dial?
Superb catch, my friend. Superb choice, too. Bravo! Nicolas
Mrs. CaliforniaJed goes nuts and checks in with a wristshot!
HAGWE she says! Best, Mr. MrsCaliforniaJed...
i thought you were talking...
i thought you were talking about me for a second Vlad, then realised you were using those words on a watch...
It will soon be your turn... ;) [nt]

Thanks all, it's nice to have a laugh...
...and this sort of qualifies as a vintage LE: it's a hand wind from 1987 commemorating the 35th anniversary of Mad Magazine.
LOL [NT]
