Dear friend Abel !.. Thx so much for your kind looking &..
.. the as ever so nice comments ‼️ I am glad you liked some of my entries and specifically the PP 5960, which has gradually emerged to one of my fav pieces; this also as it offers the combo of an all year calendar with a great Chronograph. Let me wish to ...

I rather like your description . . .
. . . of a go a nywhere, d o a nything watch. That may well be the theme of the next WristScan thread yours truly moderates. Intrigued, Art
Beautiful collection here!
The gold day date messed with me for a second… the foil under it looked like there was a pusher in the crown and I had to do a double take 🤣
Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Grande Réserve (extra grande taille case) -- plenty of Grand for this Grand Finale 😉
And my latest arrival Best, E. ...
Both from the grand maison 🙌🏻👌🏻👏🏻
The Geophysic is definitely on my list as well - deadbeat for the win 😊👍🏻
Such an underrated complication…
For so long. Recently I am seeing more and more watches with it out there…
I find fascinating the comparison between what attracts some people vs. what is mainstream.
The TS is mechanically an achievement, but it was not such a success and not really talked about at the time it came out. As soon as I saw it in 2015, I knew it was something and I instantly wanted one. It took me some time to get hold of one but now I am...
Unfortunately not enough people appreciate the complication…
And as the uninitiated often assume it’s quartz this puts quite some customers off. Unfortunately 🤷🏻♂️
Great pair of JLCs.
Enjoy wearing the True Second - a fab, but subtle complication. Cheers JML
Dear KM, I am chipping in with very likely the finale piece for me in 2024...
since the delivery of a couple have been delayed to 2025. Have a great holiday season ahead 🥂 ...
Extraordinary piece dear friend S F. An interesting choice to celebrate the end of this year. I wish the other two pieces will arrive soon next year as well.
Receive my cordial regards and best wishes of much Peace and Good Health for next Xmas and New Year 2025 for you and your beloved ones. Cheers, Abel
Thks much dear Abel!
Your series this week captures the holiday mood really well with your lovely pieces! Wishing you and your loved ones a great holiday season!
With the signature microbrew pairing 👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻
Congratulations on your latest incoming and curious to hear your impressions of it 🎊🎉🎈👍🏻
Thus far, the models coming from Otsuka…
have the rawness that appeared to have been put together with some random parts by a mad scientist😂
Hello dear friend KM!! Let’s celebrate a Grand Finale!!
Here my choices to be on my wrist during the last days of present year and during the celebration of Xmas and the arrival of the New Year 2025. Thank you for being our Host on this last of the year WS event!! I wish you and your beloved ones a nice Xmas a...
Thanks so much for your kind words and wishes Abel 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
And I hope the same come true for us all! 🤞🏻 And I see you are ready for the festive season with a lot of sublime shots 👌🏻👍🏻 The VDC is my favorite, could well be a grand finale for me as well. Just one question - the golden Rolex is from the 1980s, right...
Hello dear KM! Thanks a lot for your so kind comments on my shots and watch choices. Ah yes, a typo mistake I just corrected, of course it is a 1980 Date Lol!
I´m happy that you like the VC chrono. It´s a wonderful timepiece and you have the choice of gold case if you like more than the steel one in my collection. Very classic design and the usual high quality of this brand in the movement design and finish. Be...
I would ideally like to go for steel, too…
Both from the weight and general preference perspective.
One step at a time 😁
Watches are currently not the top priority but let’s hope to get there again soon😊👍🏻
Hello, my dear friend Abel !.. Great choices- you did it again !
All well selected and also so much „you“. This specially pertains to your Omega „Moonshine“; surely a signature watch for you ! - Well picked the Xmas Gold Rolex and the Explorer 1655; another reference we share ! Liked the pic with the green candies.. My...
Hello again my dear friend HS. Appreciate so much your too kind comments on each one of my choices. Always my pleasure to share these pieces with you as my horological twin! ;)
Agree with you that the VC CV is a superb chrono which every watch lover would enjoy so much in any collection. A Classic design with a high quality manufacture. Also I appreciate so much your warm good wishes for Xmas Season and New Year. Wishing you and...
Wonderful Moonshine ! …
Good to see you enjoying this beautiful watch. Best regards Captain
Thank you Captain!! We share the love for this wonderful watch!!
I’m happy to see you are enjoying it too! Best cordial regards my dear friend!! Abel
That is a true grand finale…
In all senses of the word 🙌🏻👌🏻👏🏻 And truly a rare piece that is so seldom seen 👍🏻
Meant in a positive way
Not to take away from all the beauties on this site, but I think this is my favorite. It would never fit me, nor could I even afford but I’m so glad you wear it and post it 🍻
Many thanks my friend
appreciate your words - and I am sure it would fit you. maybe one day we will meet to check this out ;-)
Festive grand finale …
Festive greetings dear KM and friends ! I hope everyone is keeping well and looking forward to getting together with friends and family for Christmas. Snoopy always fun any time of the year … Classic charm for the season … A personal favourite …now I need...

Those shots are truly sublime dear Captain 🙌🏻👏🏻👌🏻

Hello dear Captain! Stunning shots for a Grand Finale with some extraordinary watches on your wrist. You know my big love for the Moonshine Speedy and I´m glad both you and me...

My big pleasure Captain! Thank you for your kind message. Yes, we are planning a family gathering for the next festivities. I wish you´ll enjoy a nice and joyful festivities ...
... with your beloved ones. A big hug for you my dear friend. Abel
Here’s my entries…
We still didn’t get around to putting festive decorations this year so I will need to improvise somewhat. Grand Seiko… Grandest (also size wise) Seiko I have… Grand timing, with the snowflake just hitting and not yet melting ❄️ My grand watch… Grand ingen...
Hello, dear KMII ! - A fine list you have picked and lined up !
Although I know a few of your choices, I always tremendously enjoy shots of your VC; what a wonderful watch with this bewitching dial ! - Your GS-picks are always special and the JLC Amvox really is a quite special choice; a reference we both share !.. My...
Glad you liked them 😊👍🏻
As said, given that the decorations are far from up I looked into the previous entries to see what could be found. The Chopard LUC 8HF is indeed an interesting piece, at least to me, liking high frequency movements and all 🙌🏻
You really know how to celebrate a Grand Finale my dear friend KM! Sublime shots you share here to show us your great choices. Always with well matched straps in colors and textures.
A feast for our eyes. Your VC is your signature watch I feel, such an elegant classic timepiece. And love the red touches of your Raqueta. Interesting to view the texture on dial of your Habring well paired with those red leather straps. Great combo! Alwa...
Thanks so much for the kind wishes Abel 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Which I can only reciprocate at this point - may also your country achieve a state again, where you can comfortably enjoy your retirement, without having to worry about what comes next 🤞🏻 The Raketa is a nice combination of a classical design of theirs re...
My big pleasure dear friend KM. Thanks to you for your kind good wishes for my Country. We are expecting that big change. And yes, I´m willing to enjoy my retirement next year.
I´m 76 now and I know I need to enjoy life out of daily work. Interesting to read about the Raketa details. Regarding the Habring2: you made a great choice with that red straps. I really love the looks. Keep enjoying all your beauties so much dear friend!...
Glad you like it - bringing some freshness to horology…
And also a watch that allowed me to save other watches during one of the last moves - a story for another day 😊
You got me with the fabulous Vacheron 😬
You know how much I love this epic watch. Best regards Captain
I really like it!
and am still on the fence for it, just need some time to pick up to other pieces before
A new incoming and you left it on the bracelet? 😱
Scandalous! What will the neighborhood pterodactyls think of you? 😤 Great / grand choice for your final incoming and hope the coming weeks will be peaceful and relaxed for you my friend 👍🏻🤞🏻
For Dino’s sake…
I hope you stick to that promise 😂😂😂 Great seeing you here and a truly lovely piece 👏🏻👌🏻🙌🏻
Hello dear Mike!! A sublime choice for a Grand Finale celebration. I take your word no dinosaurs were harmed during the shooting of these stunning shots! Lol!
Hope you are doing well and I send you my best wishes for next Xmas Season and New Year 2025. Be it with tons of Peace and Good Health for you and your beloved ones. Best cordial regards, Abel
