Not this one but ....
This one has a display back and I believe it is the Manual wind Unitas 6497-1 with Cote de Geneve finish.
My other one has no sub seconds dial and has a solid back with a 1969 Fountainmelon vintage caliber ST96-4, mechanical manual winding movement limited to 500 pieces. I will post some pics.
Good eye my friend.

When Harry Met Sally......
Have a great weekend..... Fall in love again Best, Horo This message has been edited by Hororgasm on 2012-01-12 10:43:05...
Awww! Never realized . . .
. . . you were the sentimental type, Horo . . . and Valentine's is just around the corner, too! Well, if Ms Horo can borrow an MB&F, the least I can do for black Connie . . . . . . is to get her . . . . . . new shoes . . ....
Confidentially Connie...
talking about shoes...there is a scene on shoes, if i remember correctly... - Sentimentality...like morality has become a relative measure, sadly. best, Horo This message has been edited by Hororgasm on 2012-01-12 11:26:53...
. . . and I thought . . .
. . . I was the vintage movie buff around here. Never even heard of this one, and I'm a fan of Walter Slezak . . . one of the finest character actors, ever.
it hasnt quite reach cult status.
i cant appreciate Walter Slezak, havent watched many of his works. I only know Hitchcock's Lifeboat(?). strange thing is i like to watch classics when i am ill. Best, Horo
You are ill?
CNY is around the corner and aren't you suppose to go to Geneva? Or do you mean ill at heart .... Regards Tyler
medically fine, horologically sick
I am pissed off because of work flow issues, I have to skip SIHH... best, Horo
NOOOOOOOO!!!!
Skip SIHH? Skip our planned assault on the watch industry's female ankles? Skip days of hororgasmic musing, not to mention free drink and grub? Aaaauuugh! You will be missed, my friend. Best, Gary
i feel really bad, and pissed off at the same time...
only "good" thing was my secretary getting me a airfare credit. i even bought new winter clothes. you enjoy yourself, and snap lotsa pics. disappointed, Horo
Do a few ankles for me, and drink my portions for me...:(
i am actually quite pissed off with myself and certain characters for making me miss this. i was sooooo loooooking forward to this. sadly, Horo
(WARNING - bad taste response)...
"The biggest issue with having a colostomy bag", she ruefully observed, "is finding shoes to match". No such problem here, Art - what a marvellous early Valentine's gift for 'Connie'! That is a beautiful and utterly sympathetic pairing. Details please. Ch...
Lightly padded ostrich shin leather . . .
. . . over a layer of shell cordovan. The scale pattern is more varied than lizard, and was chosen to complement the engraved dial. There was nothing wrong with the previous shell cordovan strap, but since that one complemented my latest Constellation to ...
New Connie is lovely, Art!
I keep hearing you and Snak have a secret list of local sources for vintage pieces, and I am dying to go on a shopping excursion with you! Best, CaliforniaJed
Just a brilliant pairing, and nicely captured in these images.
Black Connie just got better. No higher praise. Look forward to seeing it one day. A

When Harry Met Sally... anno 1965!
Or like they said back then: When Polaris met Dolphin! HAGWE Blomman...
So, finally, you found one! Lovely little baby you have here.
My daughter is crazy about this one.... For the next generation? I would keep it with pleasure. Best, and congratulations, my friend. That makes me think that I must have a review on this one, hidden somewhere... Nicolas.
Finally..! :)
Yes, found her some months ago… Please post the review – this one I think is from a late batch. Markings and crown are different from yours. Thank you, my friend! Best Blomman
I do my best, Horo! :)
Some themes are easier than others… Thank you, - yes, I have been looking for Sally a long time! Best Blomman
No time to meet Sally, nor tomorrow, nor this week end, nor next week.
But I need to check the pace of all the things i have to do, in my real job, as well as in the virtual world... Plus, and more important, some family activities. So, for the next days, I will wear my toolwatch, one of my very favourite one, one which coun...
My second fav UN, after the Freak
Hope all work out well, timings and otherwise. Me going thru same thing now. Best, Horo
I don't know if I would say AFTER the Freak...
I was never able to choose between these 2, by the way. Good luck, Horo. Thanks! Nicolas
I just figured it out, Consiglieri. You're going to . . .
. . . set the alarm at the same moment your opponent in court is making his pitch to the judge. Dddrringgggg! He loses his train of thought, and Voilà! - the case is closed! Am I right? Don Turo
Nico, you know how to enjoy life despite of your busy life...
... wearing this Sonata along your busy work, you can listen and enjoy the nice melody from her! great choice indeed! stefan
Great companion during a stressful week!
The “Sally” of all alarms! Have a fantastic week, my friend! Best Blomman
Not exactly on the same mood ...
My wife and I are seeing a lot of 40's/50's movies (Art, you are not alone), mostly on the "film noir" class. My pics this week reflects this mood: A wonderful weekend to all, Nilo...
That's the name of the game ...
Only recently I was able to learn that the "film noir" style was created because the scenarios were poor and someone decided to use this style of shooting to hide it. No "glamour" but plain and simple lack of money.. Cheers, Nilo
Not from the camera ...
Nicolas, You need to shoot RAW and process the RAW files using the application that you like (Main contenders are Apple Aperture x Adobe Lightroom) There you convert to B&W in complete control. A PuristSPro should never shoot JPEG (lol) Cheers, Nilo
A bit less idyllic ...
... but the watches are nice ... When Bimbeano met Ares501 ... HAGWE guys ... Filip...
Great wristshots....and that's a familiar face in the background..
Best and HAGWE, Horo
And the Englishman in the background is saying...
..."I'll have what they're having!" ;-) Cheers, pplater.
That's no English gentleman!...
That's 'our' Graham... If we must have film clips, then we must have THAT film clip. Folks: ego destruction alert - www.youtube.com Cheers, pplater.
I did smile at the response ...
... of one witty poster: "Women can fake an orgasm. Men can fake a whole relationship!" A
you got a very obliging missus...
some are very reluctant....and very cool and warm shots...thumbs up bravo, Horo
It is a hard hobby / passion to kep to your self
It is always fun to share with family and friends like here on the forum. HAGWE Bill
Great theme, Horogasm! (And great pic!)
True love is often a little blurry! (It was the best I could do on short notice with an iPhone!) Best, CaliforniaJedandWife...
sometimes...spur of the moment shots mean more then choreographed shots
and thanks for sticking to theme...i too own a Moser One...and wore it on New Year's Eve. cheers, Horo
I know I should....
It clocked 10 days in it's first month of service back in Q1 09, and have seen sporadic wrist actions, maximum once a month. And it went into the safe for over half a year, and came out of hibernation for a photoshoot, and it was loaned out for another ph...
Thanks, Nicolas.
I've been wearing and very much enjoying the Moser all week. Mrs. CaliforniaJed is most often seen with a Rolex on her wrist. Best, CaliforniaJed
Sorry I can't answer your theme but I hope this one is OK...
HAGWE. Regards, Richard....
My version of Harry met Sally
And will be wearing this for the weekend... HAGWE Sam...
Cool pic with a great background selection ...
A classic picture, by my book. Cheers, Nilo
your love of Diver vintages are well documented!!
and another round of excellent static and wrist shot!! bravo, Horo
thanks Oliver...
for your warm words, but there are some great masters around here! Matt
Funny, this dial which turned to brown. love this one!
Mine developed the same color, but it has, like yours, to be exposed to high light. Best, Nicolas.
Ah you know Italian lights!!!
I took the picture in Asolo, a beautiful medieval village where I like to stay! We know the warmth of the Italian sun from your famous roof pictrures, looks like it works in the winter too, incredible -5°C, sun and blue sky! and I will be back there next ...
I was supposed to go to Italy for Xmas... I ended stuck in Paris. ;)
But you're absolutely right. They have some excellent light, there! Best, Nicolas
On theme, if not a wrist shot...
Just to keep you going (if this link works). Surprised that there's no Harry Winston yet. Cheers, pplater....
how i long for a warm embrace.....sigh
what watch is she wearing? do we know? Best, Horo
