Another Dornblueth 04.0
Well, this seems like a good a time as any for my first post here. Greetings all from Massachusetts.
Love this site, and hope I can bring something to the table to compensate for the knowledge and humor
that I have been (anonymously) enjoying.
For today, my Dornblueth & Sohn 04.0 in stainless steel and black dial. My daily wearer.....
-Tom

Tribute to Genta
And the shirt a tribute to NATIONAL DAY WEEKEND. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE !!...
By the way...
I think you posted the wrong watch for your title... Cheers and long weekend ahead.
Ok i get...
Well, It is Sir Gentra who is no doubt in designed the first high end steel sport watch Royal Oak Jumbo in the 70s. But i think posting a old series Royal Oak watch would then be a really true tribute. The one posted is a modern Royal Oak, it may looks th...
Genta history
Interestingly Gerald Genta, the man, was involved with a number of iconic designs in the 1970’s, some of which, like the Royal Oak , are clearly credited and others where the links are more obscure. These include the Patek Philippe Nautilus, the Bulgari-B...
Not VC
Just doing my bit to kill that myth...Genta DID NOT design the Vacheron 222 sports watch. Credit goes to a young Jorg Hysek according to VC themselves.
Here is a more detailed discussion …
I just came across this more detailed discussion on Mr Genta’s contributions which you may find interesting. Unfortunately some of the photobucket links have been lost Click here to be magically transported . A
could the 60's Omega piepan constellation be Gerald Genta at his best?
it must have been one of the first watches he designed and it is a true classic. G
Sophisticated steel for me ...
Breakfast and dinner ... and over the "sporty" day ... HAGWE Oliver...
Impeccable taste, Oliver.
Didn't know you also had this R.O.... HAGWE, my friend. Nicolas
If I have one regret . . .
. . . with regards to watches, it's not getting one of these while they were available. This special one is quite the handsomest . . . cordially, Art
Lots of Lambo posts recently from you...
LHD from I would guess the States last week. Now a RHD car I can only imagine is from the UK seeing as your cell is on Orange. Are you on the world Lambo circuit now? Love that super top secret Offshore. Best, Steve
This one for me but
no Lambo .... LOL as ride in a chauffer driven humble Toyoya van ...ha...ha.....
Quan, I would let the Lambo for the Toyota Van for this one! :)
HAGWE, my friend. Nicolas
i just love these co-axial chronographs
is that what they are called when the minute and hour hand totaliser use the same spindle? it is beautiful whatever its called and makes the display much cleaner. best Graham
Which wrist is which, Melvyn? :-)
That's a tongue twister! Which watch are you wearing, sir? Enjoy the weekend! Cheers, Daos
I'm wearing all of them.......
....er......except the perpetual calendar Royal Oak...even I cannot grow extra arms like Ben 10 can. Regards, MTF
Urwerk 103 for today & the weekend
Have been wearing a Santos steel bracelet for most of the time, but since it's not so hot today, time for the 103. GEO...
Ultra-Chron
This plain 40-year-old Longines just seems to do its job (i.e. tell the time) in a simple, no fuss manner. It has been sharing wrist time with a Constellation this week. Have a good weekend everyone. Andrew...
Andrew, this Longines is just awesome.
Very very nice watch. Understated, certainly, but how elegant! Best, Nicolas
I take that as high praise indeed …
Thanks Sam, you have great taste and some very elegant timepieces and I appreciate your comment Keep posting those wonderful watches. Andrew Ps. good to see Bobby as your avatar.
Hamilton Cufflinks
Thanks for noticing. They are Hamilton ladies watch movements from the 1950’s. The one on my left wrist is a Cal. 757 and on my right a Cal. 761. Both 22 jewels. Only a WIS would notice, but the Cal. 757 is slightly better finished and has a screwed...
Superb pic, Andrew!
Love the watch. Love the 'links. You are styling! HAGWE! Cheers, Daos
Another one among my favourite Pilot Watches, Richard.
Will bring mine during my holidays... HAGWE, my friend. Nicolas
beautiful
wish it was 46mm. i'll be all over it but that will never happen at G O.!! Tony
Lovely Calatrava
wonder how long has it been in the vault as hardly see you post PP .... LOLOL
Actually, I love a lot this Calatrava, Quan
But I don't wear it all the Fridays. Best, Nicolas
Thanks, Richard
It won't really be a relaxing WE, but hey... Holidays are coming soon! Best, Nicolas
One of my fav PP, at least
A timeless Beauty, I agree. Thanks, mrsnak HAGWE, my friend. Nicolas
Beautiful!!
Very nice--a tasteful, understated choice with impeccable attention to detail. One of the most appealing watches of the current PP lineup, IMHO!
I love the different shades of grey in the dial!
An understated eyecatcher, for sure! (Even if the term sounds like a contradiction) The shading of the dial is a real pleasure to look at in the pictures, and I can only imagine how it must look in person. Thanks for sharing, Nico! Have a great weekend! A...
It's the whole watch, Alex
Which is an eye catcher... Did you see the elegant and subtle Breguet applied numbers, and these round indexes??? Huuuummmm! HAGWE, Nicolas
Classicly beautiful.
Lovely choice, Nicolas. This is the kind of watch that stands outside the boundaries of fashion, but is instead timelessly stylish and straightforward. Cheers, Daos
Wow, Daos...Nicely and shortly said!
I love the way you write! Are you ok for some lessons? Beeest, Borat.
Actually, it is mine for 3 years, now
You can't know all my pieces just like this... Best, Nicolas
your real Mcqueen is the real McCoy!
I had a chance to see Nicolas' example a couple of months back and I fell in love with the charm and utilitarian looks of the 1655. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend, Alex
Fantastic Lambo !!
Less power for me today.... HAGWE ! Emmanuel This message has been edited by Emmanuel H on 2009-08-07 00:22:10...
Great IWC, Pat
I think it is my favourite.... If I had to change it, it would be for a Jubilée...and I'm not even sure I would do it... HAGWE, my friend. Nicolas
my favourite portugiese Patrice
the sub second and power reserve give it a very balanced look unlike the model with centre seconds. best Graham
Collaboration between......
Kobold & Chronoswiss=U.S.S. Pittsburgh Chronograph on a hornback strap! Simply love this collaboration and the strap combo! Sorry for the bad quality pic...a wristshot!!! A closeup! HAGWE, all purists!!!...
We should do a G.O Senator Navigator Roll Call
In hommage to this beautiful watch, Peter! HAGWE. Nicolas
Another Navigator, but only half GO ...
Union Glashütte Navigator/Flieger panorama date: Regards, Marcus...
something alarming i picked up recently.
i'd like to buy a JLC Master reveil or polaris one day, but cant afford one now. however, i do want an alarm watch that can be used in most situations. i was lucky enough to pick this up recently. it will tide(deliberate pun) me over as it sounds as good ...
Love it, Graham!
Well, won't you stop one day, my friend? I can't follow your rythm! An " air de famille " with a watch I love a lot... Which one? HAGWE! Nicolas
i will be stopping mon ami. i have a plan
all i'm waiting for is the SM300 then buying no more until my 2 Azimuth BIT's arrive hopefully in september. then i plan to not buy, but save until i can buy something like a used Amvox II or something else on my wishlist in that sort of price range. the ...
An Amvox II, now that would be a super choice, my friend!
I perfectly see you with a watch lie this... Original, and technical...and you still don't have a JLC watch! Best, Nicolas
I have a soft spot for nautical Crickets
Ever since I won a copy of the Vulcain anniversary book I have been stalking a particular model. When the time is right I hope to read your review of the Revue-era version. Thoughts are with you and the family right now - I assumed that things were at six...
the revue cricket is very different to the Vulcain Ginger
the name might be the same but the movement is different. very long technical and legal explainaton. its a good watch for the few pennies it cost me and i will review it at some stage. i did reply to your email so will send it again. best Graham
It still works ???
LOL Graham, i can't stop teasing you ! I think you'll have to come over now so i can hear how it sounds .... nice pictures !!! Your mate ... Filip
