HAGWE, -- Richard.

But only regarding the watch. (Though the sky has been grey and ugly for days now.) Happy to report myself back to Wristscan Friday with a more usual strap. I am wearing it today to celebrate Nicola's Giant Leap and to acknowledge that the Speedy has serv...

Photo – doesn’t matter, it’s a great photo! HAGWE Blomman

the worlds first bi retrograde automatic by Longines Wittnauer. HAGWE Graham...  

no, its relatively old as i've had it about 18 months. december 2008/january 2009 if my memory is correct. the pic however was taken only yesterday. you need an HDD attached to your forehead to keep all the bits of info you've taken in and cast aside :-))...

thanks Blomman, just one of my funky pieces that get very little wear. motorcycle racing on TV this weekend so i'll be busy. best Graham

When did you get the new handle (G99)? I like it.

thanks Ginger, although you've seen it before at my kitchen table. i changed my id last week for personal reasons, but dont expect it to fool anyone. i think i've just past my 6000th post with no big post. oh well, roll on 10,000. have a good holiday Grah...

i'll say thankyou Poy as i hope your referring to my Wittnauer :) best Graham

Yes, I do like your watch a lot, most of the models that have an expression of the 70's put a big smile of my face. And, it drives my mind insane in thinking as to what we could make them today look if inspired by them. Yes, you to me here have a nice pie...

thanks again Poy, yep i know its a futurama, but i forgot to put in too many details as i posted it at length when i first got it. your totally right about this sort of design being left by the wayside as time progressed. perhaps it is because they only a... 

never seen something like this before! HAGWE Andreas

thanks Andreas, its one of my many funky and fun pieces although it has a place in history as the first bi retrograde watch released. quite desirable in certain circles i understand(crop circles i think). best Graham

Hi Everyone., Took this one while in the car.... Have a great weekend everyone ! Good Hunting Bill...  

mine or PP's? Maybe if we were both dyslexic... see? everything is context, context is everything!

depends on how you read it.... cheers

AP's on the wrist - better than steroids! and healthier too! Photo courtesy of a Gentleman Purist...

Congrats! Do you which year it’s from? Best Blomman

sorry Blomman, i do not know which year of it produced because i do not have tool to open the caseback :-( however i saw there is someone selling similar model in other website, from that watch, the year of production would be around 1969. i have been wea...

Close in age and taste in watches! Which year? Best Blomman

Just classic in its case, dial and proportions. It doesn't come much more perfect (apart from a '60's Constellation, but we are all allowed our biases!). Nice. Congratulations. A

Not a today's shot, but I am today wearing it * Hagwe *

...  

one of my favourite PP's Poy. i love the idea of the chronograph with the hour and minutes on the same subdial. very clean and minimal. i love the case design. what i dont like is the price :-)) why dont more people make what i understand is called a co-a...

Masthead for this week goes to you, PoyFR. Well done. Lovely watch, lovely shot.

I really wanted to catch the blue numerals on the dial....

A beauty! I assume that is a Breitling Crosswind as I have one almost identical here in S.C.

.... this ... On my wrist for over a month now - still totally enchanted with it. Have a good weekend all, Andreas...  

Wear it and show it as often as you want, Andreas. Do you always leave them set at the same time? Do you consider it as a 'travel watch', or is it something else altogether? Andrew

. . . but not photo du jour . . . . . . cordially, Art...  

Any quick French Classes before the D.Day? A bientot, mon ami. Nicolas

. . . "more beer, please" and "where is the nearest pissoir", and I'll be fine . . . trust me ;-) . . .

dont worry Art. i know how to say the first bit. always ask for 'grande bier' or 'pression'. that way you'll get a large draft beer and not an overpriced small bottle. a veteran of many euro 2 wheel roadtrips. G

with some wrist Love HAGWE all !...  

A great watch, perfectly worn. HAGWE, Nicolas

Great building and grate photo! HAGWE Blomman

works of design.

more info? Thanks, TM...  

It is my understanding that the military wanted to have a watch fit for the infantry that was ", non-maintainable, non-hacking, general purpose" and at the same time did not need to be terribly accurate. Obviously the Airmen and Seamen needed more precisi...  

But I think A will like. I think Emilio has got the same one, recently. Personally, I like a lot, and to say all, I'm re discovering these American Military Watches. So you will be able to say " Hey, A, this is one Uncle Nico doesn't have "... RMLOL. Best...
