Practically all missed...
I guess that’s the disadvantage of a late birth, and entry into the hobby. But maybe with some railway watches in the portfolio I may be more punctual next time 
The one that I seem to have gotten just in time is the Minerva Pythagore. Not a watch that’s likely to appreciate in value much but one that’s become increasingly difficult to find in the last year or so...
Have a great weekend!

WristScan November 16: "On or off the train" starts now!
With recent auction results, I think it's fair to say that the Omega Railmaster left the station... ...that train have gone! So, our theme this week is: "On or off the train" - Which "trains" did you catch? Which did you miss but wished you were aboard......
I think you caught almost every train that ever left any station.
Cool theme, will need to think about some...
Perhaps, here are two...
The Gyromatic with Crosshair dial. I found one very early on and then this second one almost NOS. That's a train that is going to pick up pace very soon. And perhaps the original Vintage 45. Found at an antique dealer shop for absolute peanuts. That is a ...
Hello CC !.. Two great GO choices: that Crosshair is really pure class & the Vint 45 a pretty cool time-machine.. Well done !! :))
As you also so well know, i‘ve been very lucky (& also quite grateful, to be honest ! (to have been able to join in for such a Chrosshair, thx to this very good friend - You know, who you are.. Best & HAGWE ! hs.
Missed and taken....
Missed... After so many trains left, I even lost the station... Best, Nicolas ...
Wow dear friend! Indeed a full station you got here!! I wish I had photographed my own missed trains myself! I guess I have many more trains missings than what I presently remember!
But I´m sure you have many more trains caught than missed, judging for the wonderful collection you own! Have a great week end my dear friend Nicolas! Abrazos desde las Pampas del Sud! Abel.
This could be a painful theme.....
So instead I prefer to focus on this year's positive. One train I definitely caught....... It had to be. ...
You got run over by this train 🚂
And then it backed up and slowly ran over you again. Stopped, went full speed ahead hitting you for the definite kill. Now you are the train.
Hmmhh.. Let me see which „trains“ to catch..
Glad I could catch the MMV Paris Boutique Edition, from 2016 My Vintage 2915.. Love it ! The latest catch: JLC Polaris Geographique WT, 2018 Pleasure on the wrist ...
Thx for kind looking, dear friend !.. Cheers !! :))
PS: I had by erroneous typo misquoted the Ref as 2915, but of course it is 2914; thx for correcting ! Well.. I guess Padawans have still got to learn..
I remember the Rail from three . . .
. . . (was it three?) years ago, h. Yes, you caught that train before it left the station! Well done, from a guy who should've known better and acted sooner ;-) . . .
Yep, thank you !.. You have a very good memory !.. Indeed, it was a quite lucky find (1/2016), even somewhat at that time..
- Thx for your kind words, Best & HAGWE ! hs.
A train I caught a few years ago, ....
... the (in)famous Speedy express. Alas, the ticket prices are rocketing to the moon since and economy class coaches are no longer in operation along this railway. Hopefully, dreams are for free. Below, a 145.022-68ST, from april 1969 (a perfect match wit...
Good with trains - but have missed the boat on a couple of occasions
Hi Taking the train term literally! But in terms of missing watches Most recently SLA017 - was sorely tempted & should have pulled the trigger. But I can't have everything & where would be the fun if you could!? It makes you think about the watches that y...
Caught the Flightmaster train . . .
. . . just in the nick of time. This train . . . . . . isn't even on the schedule anymore. Seriously. I've only seen one other exactly like it; there must've been others, but how many, only Omega knows. Caught the jumbo train earlier this year . . . . . ....
Wow !.. Really amazing choices !.. My absolute fav is that mesmerizing 2nd shot!..
What a black Connie !.. Never had seen one, except yours ! - Bravo & well played, must be pure pleasure to look at & wear !! Best & HAGWE !! hs
I've seen only one steel ref 2852 exactly like it . . .
. . . plus another that was cased in 18 kt rose gold. Yellow gold variants are relatively more common, but still highly uncommon in toto . Hope all's well with you, h . . . we've had our share of excitement here in So Cal recently. The view from my balcon...
Wow !.. What a nice set !.. Even more Congrats to you & continue to wear it in the very Best of your health !
Cheers again ! hs. PS: A very tough & sad time for so many.. Glad you & yours are safe, Art !
Drove to Arizona to acquire it . . .
. . . from the original owner, j. Twenty-plus hours round trip. And yes, it was definitely worth it ;-) . . .
I would love to get on the train to GF one day
If only the tickets weren't so expensive 😬 ...
