love your Reverso Bleu !
A wonderful way to start dreaming Gelato Monster!
And your dreams kept coming so beautifully!! Does your plant receive any special treatment to grow like this? Lol! Thank you so much for sharing your dreams my friend!! Hagwe! Abel
Oh my friend!! Another dream come true!!
Superb!! Keep sweet dreaming my friend! Cheers! Abel
Thank you. It is my simple dream for enamel
Perhaps is is nothing the. expensive ultra class brand enamel I can only admire.
Grail is something that led towards start of a new journey or something very elusive like a horizon...
in that way...everything started with this 'quartz' watch....but i still have it & whenever i see it - it brings me memories from 2009 ! I've seen this pic posted by one of our fellow purist (Credits to our fellow purist, but unfortunately i don't rec...
That LC is amazing my friend (looks like a Amanico pic 🤔)
The first watch is always something special. I still own my frist watch .will never part with it
Hello Dear Mahesh!! I love your definition of Grail...
Elusive as a horizon is so true in most of them!! Patience and perseverance and a dose of help from Lady Luck can make those dreams come true! Besutiful way to begin your journey. No matter movement type or price main thing is that it started the fire of ...
wow...Abel - i didn't know you've this one !
when i got a chance to visit JLC, i shared this pic and asked about it too... in deed it is a very very gorgeous piece - i often don't download a pic of watches posted by someone, but the pic i posted is at least in my phone for few years now ! when you'r...
Superb present Grail Watch dear Brauner!!
And an intriguing shot of the Grail you have on your sights! May your dream come true soon!! Hagwe my friend! Abel
Since "The Grail in "reality" is/was mostlikely a modest cup ...
... that turns live into a perpetual event, there can not be an end. Having said that and to refer to your points you have made to me a grail watch is rare. A limited piece in a relative low number from an haute orology house defines that category. Like t...
Beautiful definitions of Grail Watches you share with us...
... my dear friend Moritz! I completely agree with your thoughts... split seconds is a fantastic complication to have in a chrono ... and any of the grails you show ate Grails in my book. The Breguet La Tradition is in my sights since long ago. I was very...
Thanks Abel for a nice and thought-provoking theme this week! :-) Since "grail" has already been defined extensively (and in various interesting ways) by other friends in this thread...
..Let me also add my personal and very theoretical definition... My "grail" must: 1) Be created by my favorite watch brand; 2) Carry an iconic, 40+ year-old movement on one side and a masterpiece on the dial, authored by the most talented contemporary art...
Love the 4th photo, dual wielding some heavy wrist weaponry with an outfit to match!
And the last one as well, just perfect!
A breathtaking beauty indeed. A fabulous timepiece. May be next time you can connect with it or let it go forever. It is something strange...
... our relation with watches, and how we feel with our Grails. Thank you for sharing these great shots. Hagwe! Abel
Thanks, the thing with the 6102 is how much more amazing it looks in the metal than in the pictures! I remember I was trying it on inside, but they asked me to go outside under the sun...
If it was beautiful inside, it was literally *irresistible* outside!! We had a special appointment in Milano to discuss it again a few weeks later, after which and much consideration I (reluctantly!) decided to pass...but this 6102P is a true marvel, they...
I can well imagine that dear Fab. Truth is that the experience of examining a watch in the metal is supreme. Much more in the case of these...
... So important pieces which we consider Grails. This has been my own experience and it can be an exhilarating feeling every time we have in our hands and wrists the pieces we have been lusting through magazines, books, or internet pictures. Best, Abel
The 6102P is great, but I much prefer yours regardless
Far more attractive and wearable!
Thank you so much my dear Fab! So glad you like the theme ! I love your definition of Grail Watch and that you have fullfilled it completely.
Your sublime PP Bocadasse ticks all the boxes on your list. And is without doubt a Grail in any book. Not easy to find a piece which fills so completely our dreams! I wish you'll keep loving and enjoying it so much in the best of good health my friend! Ha...
Thanks my friend, the more I think about it the more I realize I got really lucky with this piece! :-)
The problem this year or in the near future will be to find another one that I will love as much, but this in a sense makes the search and the wait even more fascinating! Cheers.
My big pleasure dear Fab! I can well understand you: as much as we are happy to find such a marvelous Grail Watch at same time it sets...
... a high standard for a next Grail to meet. Agree that this makes more fascinanting the hunt whichever the time it takes. Good luck with your hunting and enjoy so much your Boccadasse and your watch collection along your journey. Best! Abel
I only have one watch, and it's a grail that will be difficult for me to surpass...
I had been looking at watches for about 3 years and not buying any, but then I spontaneously bid on this Moritz Grossmann sight unseen in the last hours of an online auction a bit over a year ago. A perfect size for me at 36mm wide and 8mm thick. One of b...
I was thinking that I do not know this MG 🤔
The reason is simple: a piece unique. A very, very nice MG!
Hello Jleno! You share a very interesting and unique story and a fabulous timepiece. That's a different approach to collecting (a single piece) and to...
... define Grail. I remember reading a long debate discussing if a collection could be composed of only one piece. The debate was long, the conclussion was yes, it can. Because most probably it will became a link in a long chain of pieces which be replaci...
Thanks for your comments!
As cool of a 1-watch collection it would make, I'm sure I'll be tempted to get more. That being said, I don't see myself ever trading or selling this one!
wow...that dial is immaculate, elegant & very understated !
i equally like the 'side-step' sub-seconds dial...kinda quirky touch. Best, mahesh.,
Very late to the club. I hope, not too late 😊
A grail watch for me is a watch I love and adore for many years. A watch that appeals to all my senses. It has to be a piece I desire heavily. So intensely that I think of it before I fall asleep and when I wake up again. It has to represent core values l...
Never is late to read such a thoughtfull post dear Thomas! I share with you the feelings you describe about the Grail Watches we own or we look ...
... forward to own in the future. Now your Grails: a minute repeater is something which I have in my wish list since long ago. A watch like your IWC would be a sublime way to fill that. A marvelous piece which I have listened thanks to you. A marvelous ex...
Thank you for your kind words, dear Abel!
Yes, I fully understand your thoughts and feelings about a MR. It is such an anachronistic and romantic marvel. Both - a MR as well as a PC - especially remind me of the value of time and how fast it is passing... Cheers, dear Abel, and HAGWE, too! Thomas...
My big pleasure dear Thomas!! Absolutely agree with...
... your comments and share your feelings about MR and PC complications. Thank you for your kind wishes. Same to you! Abel
That's so nice!
You have made my day! And I just saw your pure Moser and the Moser of your „boss“ which are true marvels, too! Have a great Sunday Thomas
The grail is always...
the next one but perhaps this one at the time, I thought was the end all. Best fernando ...
Thank you Fernando for sharing your Grail Watch. This is a modt ...
... marvelous timepiece. I know well. I had a unique opportunity of having one on loan for a few days at home enjoying it so much. I showed in a separate post yesterday and intend to post more photographs soon. The movement is breathtaking with its tridim...
my mind is double-split between the dial side & the 'devil side'...sorry i mean the movement ;-)
& of course you're walking towards the 'hall of fame' in photography !
My current grail is . . .
. . . an Omega ref 2410 rg chronometer . . . . . . with grey dial. I believe this one belongs to Erich. The Omega central was a grail for a very long time; even if I could afford one today, it's possible I wouldn't take the plunge. It's still my idea of a...
I´m happy you found your grail dear Art. And I wish you´ll find your ref 2410RG Chronometre grey dial some day soon my friend. The Omega Central...
... is a fabulous watch I would love to own. But I ignore its price and have a lot of priorities in my wish list of Grails! Lol! Your black dial Connie is a unique watch related with your birth date and with a unique story behind which makes it more uniqu...
Hmm... defining grail watch. Well I have a few that could qualify but in an effort to narrow it down I'll pick the latest that might apply. One that's been a long process to aquire but has

Thank you so much InDebtButOnTime for sharing with us your Superb Parmigiani Fleurier! Elegant and classy... and thin enough to fit under your tuxedo sleeve!! Great!
A beautifully finished movement complements its regal dial. Quite a Grail Watch! Thank you so much again for your submission this week end! Cheers! Abel.
Here are my entries for grail watch
I was completely in awe from both the dial design and technical movement design perspectives when Zeitwerk was first released in 2009. Its dial design is deceivingly simple yet quite complicated. It became my grail instantly. It continued to wow me year a...
