The watches to start with - hard for me to choose a favourite - and the pictures likewise. And thanks for the idea to source tiles

... Experiment with background materials and textures and it is another way to play and enjoy our watches! Hagwe! Abel

Hi All Wearing this for the commute this morning - seems appropriate as in preparation for the bank holiday it's pouring down. The only upside is a virtually empty train! Cheers JML ...  

Your Prospex will remain unfazed Have a great bank holiday, JML!

Had several already and the next one is the coming Thursday

A great comparison between new and old.... ...  

...  

. . . good un', Cap ;-) . . .

Both pieces are great and the contrast between the two is truly interesting!

Huge Congrats and wear it in best of health 🙏🏻 So if its a free theme i will go for my DB How i love these blue hands 👌🏻👍🏻 ...  

As you know I am a big fan I am very happy with the Railmaster so far and quite satisfied with the choice made. Have a great weekend!

HAGW 2u2 🙏🏻🤗

Now all I need is some rest

...sublime salmon dial. You know my soft spot for this one my friend 😉

From outside the office today: The road less travelled And attending / playing at a World Music festival at the weekend, so the Zodiac WT seems apropos: HAGWE all G. ...  

No message body

The dial has definitely been one of the main attractions optically. But the rest of the watch really gels, too

And to be seen fleetingly in Paris next week ;-)

I’m enjoying it a lot - regularly turning the bezel to UK / red hand alignment and seeing what other time it is around the globe. Seems India has had its half hour for 45+ years.

And it was great seeing both of them live. Looking forward to hearing more about the world music festival! Hagwe!

Pics of fest when I resurface ;-) Hope all is well again at home & an enjoyable weekend ensues! Cheers G. ...  

My sleep deprived brain playing tricks on me

Looks great and a super photo!

I owed it to Nilo to get one and finally decided on this one. Certainly not a resale value decision as it is a regular production piece without historical roots but then it really appealed to me and it sits nicely on the wrist

...  

and the Vintage 45 is a shared love.

The 45 has a lot of love here!

It's a beauty.

And hoping for a return as well Two great GP chronographs there, Padj!

And my sentiments as well.

It's number 2 of a LE of 8 pieces, that I was trying on at the Van Cleef boutique in Milan earlier this week. Hope you'll enjoy it too! ...  

Here’s crossing fingers that it soon will be yours

...  

And a great picture to boot! Have been looking at this one as well when making my choice but then again the first Omega will most certainly not be the only one

No wonder, you like that spell .. Cheers ! hs

Maybe not the conventional choice but I like it irrespective Have a great weekend!

... our Independence Day on Friday 25th so it’s fitting a freedom theme for us! We are having a long week end here so I have chosen several watches to enjoy on Friday, Saturday and Sunday! Including a vintage Gigandet chrono similar to that shown by Stefa...  

And the others ain't bad either!

. . . and after a brief search, discovered a link - tenuous, admittedly - to Breitling and Wakmann. Fascinating stuff, but as you probably guessed, my heart belongs to your Seamaster. ;-) Felicitations on Argentina's Independence Day, Abel - it's Memorial... 

Don’t think I will manage Indy but if I get a couple of rounds on GTS I will be happy already

. . . than watching the greatest spectacle in racing ;-) . . . ...  

. . . there's only one Maggie ;-) . . .

. . . in So Cal. Attended the first four California 500 races at Ontario Motor Speedway between '70 and '73. That first race was the last time a front-engine Offy won. Didn't know it at the time, of course, but Jim McElreath's victory over Art Pollard was... 

Definitely jealous...

though I only had chance to reach them through car magazine photos and newspaper news! Glad you were able to enjoy that gone era! All the best! Abel

. . . you'll see a '65 Dodge Dart front and center, with a British sports car to its right. I'll bet that's ours!

But I hear you, Art

... Had connections with Breitling and Walkman and even with Swiss Army brand, The present Gigandet watches have movements from Seiko and Miyota and of course they have nothing in connection with the original brand. Yes, I imagine the Seamaster would be y... 

... And as a matter of fact I was expecting you, Blomman or other experts here could throw some light on it. I promise a new post showing this watch this week end ! Abrazos mi amigo! Buen fin de semana! Abel

It is really nice and the dial has a bit more contrast than mine. The blue strap on the Omega is s fantastic match. I can’t remember having seen such a textile strap. Last but not least: congratulations on Independence Day! Best Stefan

... Straps of the Omega are made by Morelatto of Italy which is the only quality brand which we can find here in my land. It' s some kind of nylon canvas with leather lining. Very nice, sporty and comfortable. Thank you for your congrats on our National D... 

Have a nice weekend Stefan

Looking like a truly fantastic weekend is ahead of you First of all I hope you have a great celebration of your Independence Day! And with watches like these how could you not? And thanks for the kind words - I think Omega really nailed it with this one.

Agree that Omega did a great job with their new versions of their classic watch! My best wishes for you too! Cheers! Abel
