Dear Abel,
your pen collection is to die for!!! Huge congratulations, I like the Montblanc Hemingway Collection the best! Currently reading the legendary "For Whom The Bell Tolls" from the Master.
And the Omega from the Museum's collection...
It has an automatic movement, am I right??
Truly yours and HAGWE,
Adam

WS Event 2-4th Sep “Limited Editions” is Open now
You are cordially invited to the event this week. To RSVP, please reply with a limited edition item and the watch you will wear this weekend. Come share your pictures of limited edition things, juxtaposed with your watches. It is now open. Bowling balls, ...
Come have fun
I’m still thinking what photo I will take for this week. Wow, Boris and Captain Scarlet’s LE items are so cool. A Marine Nationale bag, and Aviator items. Oooo
OK, I'll play. I'll be wearing this for most of the weekend:
Being a M.N. 22, I guess it qualifies as a limited edition, but in case not, I have also included its ancestor stamped M.N.80, which was definitely a limited edition. The other stuff, I got from the Marine Nationale online shop: the knife is the actual se...
Wow!
That is a spectacular entry Boris. The M.N 22 edition juxtaposed with the cool bag and knife, and the “ancestor” M.N 80. Love it so much.
Starting with …
Hello dear Cookies and the team ! Great theme ! This weekend I’m going to start with a limited threesome … The Flieger Verus 40 Vintage 95 limited edition is accompanied by a pair of Dunhill Spitfire cufflinks, made of metal from a Battle of Britain Spitf...
Wow!!
I laid my eyes on your sheepskin jacket, and Dunhill Cufflinks (made with the special recycled/upcycled metal) and Stowa watch. My eyes won’t move from the picture. Oooo la la!
Thank you dear friend 🙏 …
I’m pleased that you like them, I love a little vintage upcycling 😉
Great shot and Limited pieces dear Captain!
Stunning Flieger! And I absolutely love those Spit cuff links. Awesome! I would love to see your RAF flying jacket! Well played my dear friend!! Hagwe! Abel
Thank you dear Count …,
Something a little different can be good fun in a collection.
Uncle Bernard would've been pleased . . .
. . . to make your acquaintance, Cap. Serving in the RAF was a point of immense pride for him, to say the least. Art
I don’t believe he flew a plane
Or did he….he recently posted a pic of him flying a plane wearing a rectangular independant watch. Is it true he can fly a plane? The mystery deepens…heeheehee
My Uncle Bernard was a navigator on a Lancaster bomber . . .
. . . towards the end of the war, Cookies. He was stationed in North Africa and never flew a combat mission, if memory serves correct. He was a dear friend of our family; I referred to him as 'Uncle' out of a combination of fondness and respect. Art
Thank you …
I’m sorry to disappoint but I don’t have the jacket with me today as it’s 32o and no other photos with me. I will post a separate post with this jacket in a few days for you. Best regards Captain
Very limited
just one Manouche who is my son and a Nord Zeitmaschine Variocurve (just very few) ...
Very interesting Nord piece
And taken with a very special loved one too! I’ve never seen a Nord in the wild before. Very niche brand.
Nice theme
Probably only 12 made as salesmans pieces of caliber 560 in the 1960’s for the American market Limited one out og 90 made Hagwe Hans ...
Interesting Omega
Curious to see that the Seamaster and Deville were in the same watch. Seldom seen vintage piece there. Is that a Laco pilot? It looks like a strap monster
A topic right 'up my alley'....
Not only is the watch itself as limited edition as it gets (#64 out of 100), but the tourmaline in quartz stone is purportedly rare, especially in this color combination that happens to match the watch colors immaculately well ........ (yes, black and ora...
My pleasure …
Can you tell us anything more about the tourmaline in quartz stone. I love the colour.
Purportedly....
for those who are spiritually inclined to any extent, it helps bring strength and balance to one's life.... I wasn't specifically looking to buy a tourmaline-infused quartz stone, but it was frankly the one I liked the most in a large store that specifica...
One rare bird
As Nico often says of rare watches. I went to read on Amvox LE’s and yours in a beautiful and very limited edition. Is it the Racing edition, as he wrote here: www.watchprozine.com
Sincerely....
appreciate your sentiments, yes, it is precisely one of the grand total of 224 'Racing' AMVOXlls - 100 black dial (mine), 100 black & white dial, and 24 for the Paris boutique (b&w dial but in a black PVD case, like the black dial that I have). Thanks for...
Here are two I have out right now
One I was wearing at work (rado) Ghost Captain, one for dinner (mb). They are also extremes in my collection for size and price - the rado at 37.3 mm/ steel, the mb at 43.5mm/WG. Rado is out of 150, the mb out of 58. ...
Wow that is a low production number
58 is almost unheard of these days. I always see LEs in the hundreds in the major manufacturers. That Rado CC is a stealthy limited edition.
Bronze …
Something else that I have enjoy collecting, bronzes and the odd Patek, hope you like this one… ...
A great theme for this weekend!
Here are two watches I have that are limited edition models. The first is the Sinn U50 mother of pearl dial limited edition of 500. It is a perfect watch for swimming. The other is Lang and Heyne Hektor that I am wearing now. It is one of 99 and if you co...
Ooo the L&H Hektor
That is a very beautiful watch, front, back and sides are equally stunning. Love the Sinn MOP dial too. That is very tropical, like a holiday in Hawaii.
Thanks a lot Cookies for the compliments!
Yeah, agree with you these are beautiful watches and I cannot stop looking at them . Take care!
Hot off the presses!
My new-to-me LE Seiko Turtle “Sea Grapes” arrived this afternoon from Singapore, 3 days early via DHL! These days if FedEx could just manage to deliver on time I’d be very happy. Certainly will see a lot of wrist time over the long Labor Day weekend. Have...
Very good design in this diver
Orange hand which is so legible. I like the curved case too. Love the day date function on it too. I actually don’t mind the assymetry of dials, as the function is very useful. The colour really resembles sea grapes on a cloudy day’s dive.
The hand is actually yellow as is the bezel
Here is the watch next to my Habring² with orange hand for comparison ...
Haven’t seen that Habring before
This Habring is beautiful. Could you tell us more about it?
Hiho Cookies
Joining with a couple. The BP is an off catalog Wempe ed. The Hektor somehow is just a run of 99 which can well be a regular run sports model offering. ...
The Hektor shot is sublime
Dark, succulent and it highlights the motiff in the centre of the dial. That’s one rare BP too. I was too late to get a BP I always wanted. The aqualung big date. Prices are off the charts now for that piece.
Thks pal…on the Aqualung, cant explain whats driving the price movement.
Other than Putin, rare to see one on forums/social media.
If I am allowed a second entry, I thought this would be cool
My trusted 16570 on tropic style strap, with a background of the first edition of the Rolang Garros yearly poster. This one was signed by the artist, Arroyo, number 145 of a series of 150. Sorry for the reflections, it's a bit difficult to get a good shot...
The more the better
Roland Garros makes very nice posters. I am going to read more about his works tonight. Wow!!
Let me respond to the Captain's call (your Patek collection really never ceases to amaze me! ;-)) with a couple of limited editions that I was lucky to acquire recently...and which I still MADLY love like on day one! :-))
Perhaps interestingly, both watches are part of the same, new Calatrava reference 5177G featuring a hobnail bezel --- a choice that I find great looking and also historically significant for Patek. It's probably well known that my favorite watch EVER --- ...
The jawdropping arts
Oooo, ooooo…my mouth was making an Oooo expression when I saw the School of Fishes. From a distance it looks like a peacock feather motiff, and close up, it is magical like a underwater scene from Pixar. I’m gonna revisit the pictures again later to admir...
Hello dear Fabr!! Your Patek Limited editions collection is just awesome!!
Not easy to choose just one but I can well understand your love for the Boccadasse and the Fish School ones! Sublime pieces!! Keep loving and enjoying your unique collection so much!! Always a joy to view them! Hagwe! Abel
My big pleasure dear Fabr. I can feel your big love for these…
… marvelous pieces and for the brand and it’s easy for me to understand that considering they are indeed true Masterpieces. I wish you’ll keep loving and enjoying them so much my dear friend. Best cordial regards Abel
