WristScan

It is always nice to see such a nice movement, indeed. Less historical, more aesthetical. That sounds like a rap song. Best, Nicolas

Congrats on a fantastic watch. Drew

This has been on my wrist for two weeks now... Have a good weekend everybody...  

Congrats, Steven, for such a superb PN. What an amazing condition! Best, Nicolas

yours might not have Rolex on the dial, but if i'm not mistaken you have a tri compax with V72 calibre in it which i think i'm right in saying is the same as this lovely Rolex. thats not detracting from the superb Rolex, but at this vintage era many used ... 

. . . the Daytona, Steve. Any comment would be superfluous . . .

Sporty, Dressy, Superb. Best, my friend. Nicolas

I am really impressed with the effort they put into the details on their watches! HAGWE Blomman

Cool shot of the town! Have fun, ED. Best, Nicolas

It's a fascinating place to visit and I highly recommend it! Regards, ED-209

Yes , custom made both side...  

The date bubble really annoys me on mine… Often I start reaching for my E II but in the end I put on the SD instead, just because of that one! Thanks for sharing. Best Blomman

Funny to see it on an Explo II. The first one I see in the flesh. Best, Nicolas

there is a big need for custom made display backs especially for some vintage watches. i have one on my 321 calibre speedmaster and would like one for my handwind omegas, the 601 and 286 calibres. the movements look great and deserve to be seen. best Grah... 

I just love this watch......  

with a fantastic movement. Great pic. Drew

If you still have it on your wrist, you should bring it back to DB as soon as possible... Soemone's ringing at your door? Best, Nicolas

I'll come to see you guys soon...We'll talk about it.... Mo

Great news, my friend. You're more than welcome. Aaah, by the way, I had a dinner with a common friend of ours... Best, Nicolas

is that one your considering for the future or discounting it due to the size? best Graham

thanks Oliver, yep, its another one i dont wear enough so i've been wearing it for the week. i'm on a mission to wear some of my higher end beauties over the next few weeks. best Graham

this style of watch was very popular in Russia prior to the revolution and Omega especially. in 1915 Czar Nicholas II presented the mayor or Petrograd with a watch like this. it was, as it turns out, the last watch he presented to anyone (as far as is kno...

my pleasure Blomman, we're all here to impart our small bits of knowledge to help others. best Graham

I'm heavily into Russian culture and history, but I'm afraid my knowledge concerning Omega is very limited. As we know the city of Petrograd, it's founding and current name St. Petersburg, was founded by Peter the Great. Peter was instrumental in bridging... 

I love it even more now i see it clearly ... Filip

. . . has one, Graham, so I get to see one every so often. It's my second favorite from the Museum collection after the sublime 1948 Centenary, which, I believe, was also in your collection before "The Great Shuffle" . . . cordially, Art

But very unusual number style. 8 looks like an hourglass. 7 looks like????? The 2 in the 12 is different to the single 2. The 1s in 11 are longer than the others. Regards, Richard.

thanks Richard, i cant remember what they call it, but there is a specific name for the way the numbers are bigger at the long ends. a bit like a starburst effect. the 2's are only slightly different probably due to the sizing. the 7 is very odd indeed, b... 

thanks Stefan, its the shape that does it for me. i'm thinking back over the last 6 years since i bought it and i dont think i've ever seen another one either on a forum or in the flesh. i wonder where the other 1914 pieces went too? best Graham

very nice! stefan

i also live a fairly relaxed lifestyle so none of my watches get harsh treatment. the shape, is as you say, beautiful. its the main reason for me keeping it when all the others had to go. best Graham

I love it. Best Drew

a great dial indeed. best Graham

Never seen one like that before. I like the shape! HAGWE Blomman

Sinn U1 Snow white. Just another in the collection of U1's. As some may know I am a fan of this tank of a tool watch. I will try and do a proper photo essay on the puppy soon. Very cool for the summer. The white strap variant wasn't for me. J HAGWE Bill...  

These Sinns are very nice...a little big for my small wrist, but am looking forward to your post on your experience with them Richard

The other is they wear smaller than you might image because of the lug shape. The rubber strap is great for all conditions and marries the wrist well. The problem always with Sinn is the availability to find AD's so you can try the watches on. HAGWE Bill

They do wear comfortably. I'm fortunate that my AD here also holds Sinn's and I have tried them on (more than once too) - they are comfortable, but still feels a little too big. Perhaps one day, I can condition my mind to accept that Size and proportions ... 

A nice LE as well with the white face.Good move on the strap Bill.

With the Standard, The Sincere LE, Phantom and a few more the Sinn's the U1 family grows. The Sinn family pic will come mid summer. HAGWE. Bill

i've got a thing for black watches and all black dials if i can find them (and afford them) best Graham

Snow white ... ??? The AR coating and the black lume turning green in the dark is pretty cool. Best Bill

HAGWE & stay cool! fernando...  

You'd wear your latest catch! Hot...Very hot! Best, Nicolas

prefering this one over the GMT IIC .............at least for now
