. . . on my radar many years ago, Livius. Simple aesthetics, manual wind with small seconds, eight days reserve with indicator, and affordable - qualities rarely found together. Seiko (Brightz) and Dornblüth (99.2) had those characteristics other than ext... 

I think that Eberhard & Co. is a very overlooked company. Eberhard has a fascinating history and they have made a lot of nice watches over the years. I remember the blue dialed version, it was very elegant. Best Regards Livius

It's was a heavy burden to find. IWC Aquatimer Vintage Collection. By sheer coincidence, I got a book of Omni Magazine covers, as a father's day (last Sunday here) gift. Some covers are very influenced by "Heavy Metal" / "Métal_Hurlant" ("Howling Metal" l...  

Borrowed a good friends' Deepsea and had to wear it on my (thicker) right wrist ... but a tad too heavy for my taste .... And now i even have a longer right arm :-) ... THAT is a very heavy story Mike :-( ... i can imagine the old man being really upset. ...  

for my friend...for fear of upsetting his grandfather, he also avoids these things. My dad NEVER talks about his service in Vietnam. Sorry to hear about your family's loss, Mike

HAGWE Best Patrice ...

It doesn't let you forget that it's right there on your wrist, but I like that! :) Best, Alberto

Here in Maine, another 2 inches of rain today :-( HAGWE, Mike

Sorry to hear that in Maine it's not so..! Hopefully the weekend will be sunnier! But even if it's not, I just hope that you will have a great time! :) Best, Alberto

What else for this theme (for me) than the Mighty Double Split in Platinum? Especially with its solid platinum deployant, it's always a left arm workout in the making. The only mildly "heavy moment" for this watch was when I received it from the auction h...

.. One,obviously as " heavyweight" in a class of tic-tacs, heavy by what a piece weighs.. .. Two, "heavy metal" as some accumulation or mass of pieces & on pics.. Guess, there will be a number of other interpretations, but alas: - let me try to chip in: a...  

Thanks, Mike

HAGWE!!! stefan ...  

. . . in anyone's book, Stefan! Even friends who aren't into watches are aware of the Rolex. Art

I must now reconsider... Thanks for sharing Stefan, Mike

It is one of my fav. pieces. Clean & classic, for all times. Cheers, Tim

in fact I remember seeing and trying it on here IIRC 2008 seems so long ago. But it was great to have met you, Allen, Dom, and JC ...  

Quite a selection of pieces that night. Cheers, Tim

Although a small no-name trench watch this one drew me because of the weight of it's story. The trench watch was the birth of the modern wristwatch, born of a need on the battlefield to be able to tell the time without having to draw a pocket watch from y...  

Love your caged beast Would you be so kind and tell what's the movement inside Sincerely Damjan

. . . who found T E Lawrence's Omega in a Welsh pawn shop? That would be the ultimate accidental grail . . .

our Graham? :) Regards D

. . . if there's any justice in this world, Graham will end up finding Ringo Starr's first watch in an antique shop. He deserves a moment of Omega fame!

Thanks for posting, Ubik.

Heavy for its history Heavy for its weight Heavy because it has a piece of metal on top of metal Thanks Ubik Mike

Heavy Metal Kettle Cazalea ...  

Now you have to show them both again, Cazalea!

...who perhaps was a little heavy, but still my brother. My wife and I miss him dearly (the one on the left; I inherited the one on the right). ...  

My PAM with a rather large heavyweight behind... (Snapped last night on my phone) Cheers Andrew ...  

Thanks for sharing. That is what I call "heavy" Cheers, Mike

didn't have any internet connection...Heavy...here we go: Matt ...  

. . . as opposed to weight, Matt? I would've guessed the Eterna KonTiki as your heaviest by the gram.

My heaviest watch is this Seiko C153, their first, and the world's first LCD digital calculator watch. As an early '80s baby, these calculator watches, along with the Casio Gshock, for better or for worse, were my first introduction to horology. These cal...
