Pure Fun Watch
Here's an old friend, my first JLC, and guaranteed to elicit smiles. Of all the JLCs I've added since this first, none attracts quite as much sincere interest and compliments.
It's big, colorful, cheerful, and playful. While other watches I've owned draw the inevitable questions about money from strangers without specific interest in watches, this one almost always draws questions about where I found it, who makes it, whether can I help with finding one, and, of course, earnest expressions of admiration: "cool color, cool watch, neat alarm clock!"
In short, it's a big watch without the baggage and a great summertime companion when paired with the rubber strap.
Big, Blue....
... and gold.
Best,
Tim

The watch you are proud and having fun owning.....
The title says it all for this week's theme. This is the one for me. More than 40 years old, but it is never "classic" look. Can wear for very wide range of occasion - from business to casual. Very thin, could be stealthy, but with polo shirt it doesn't s...

Colorful, playful, and joyful!
Understandably fun one for anyone! Thanks for sharing! Ken
That is one we don't often see, even in the JLC Forum!
Time to write soemthing about it? Best, Tim. Nicolas
Perfect strap, Tim ...
... both for colour matching with the blue dial accents and for comfort with the thick JLC case. No wonder you get so many compliments. Nicely done. Andrew
Another great topic. I would have to say that an
older JLC is also a fun watch that I travel with and really enjoy. It is always well received by fellow travelers and the vibrating alarm has done its job of waking me before landing, getting off on the right train stop in Japan and catching a quick nap b...
I still can see how much fun you have had with this one!
Nicely worn and that must be pleasure for the watch, too. Thanks for sharing! Ken
Very Cool
That Grand Reveil is a very cool watch. I think that if I had to pick just a handful of watches to introduce a newcomer to JLC, this one would be be in the mix. The combination of a steel case, dual-mode alarm, comprehensive perpetual calendar (years and ...
Dear judges. I just now recall that this picture was
sent to me. It is my watch but cannot be considered for judging. Best, Tim
Don't need to think about it
This simple watch is the watch that I wear most and like the best, because it is so versatile and ideal during travel. It goes with any outfit and it gives me the least problems. HAGWE gents! GEO ...
Very, very nicely taken photo, and of course the watch!
I have to see this model with different eyes from now on! Thanks for sharing! Ken
A classic, Ken! :)
Wonderful watch - would love to add one, one day...! :) Best Blomman
A watch that is great fun to own....?
This one! Why you might ask... Because it's a tool watch... ;) And I think Girard-Perregaux really nailed it with this one.... ;) On the wrist it's all sunshine... ;) And for me it's pure LOVE! ;) HAGWE Blomman ...
The right props ...
... really set off a great watch. Love the photos, and the GP. Thanks Blomman. Andrew
This is easy for me....
It puts a smile on my face every time I get her out.... Great theme Ken, Andy. ...
Cheers Ken...
Your original is also a stunner and in beautiful condition. Yours, Andy.
Thanks Nico....
I sometimes can't believe how lucky I was to be offered this piece which is a complete dream piece for me. Yours my friend, Andy.
Would it be cheating, KIH...
to post a picture of a watch you cannot wait to own, one that you know you will be proud to own? Because surely the CHopard LUC 1963 Chronograph PuristS Edition fits the bill! If it has to be one I own, it would surely be this one: I knew from the instant...
Cheating! But if you are surely proud (I am sure you will)....
... that's fine, too :-) Wish you could have taken your own pic, though :-) Hope it get to you as soon as possible, my friend! Ken
This one....
is connected with fun even subconsciously :) I had such a great fun these few day with friends in Paris when I received it from land far far away... land that A.R.Wallace described best ;) Best & HAGWE Damjan ...
I DO like this one, too!
Thanks to you, my friend, I have realized this model. A very nice fun watch! Ken
After all the great watches
most of them Langes you helped me realize this is least I could do Thankfully Damjan
That's quite a magical ...
... photo, and a watch with a lovely story. Pleased you enjoy it so much. Andrew
By pure coincidence...
I found out that my Nokia Lumia 920 makes perfect "light tent" :) Yours truly D
Very interesting hands on the at one...
I was not aware of this version of the GS. Looks great! Interesting hands on this watch. The seconds hand has the luminous dot on the short end. Not often seen! Best Blomman
Thank You :-)
Its true it is interesting to see the luminous dot on the short end, why do you think that is? S
With the emphasis on "fun"....
. ....as there are times when ONLY a Panerai will do.... ...
Great choice ! .. Is this Titanium or just photo-effect ?
Anyhow, a watch for many seasons.. Best & HAGWE ! hs
Wow a PAM 36
We do not see these ones very often! Stunning watch of the first/second commercial launch right? GEO
Yep....correct
Have owned it for 4-5 years now. There are days when ONLY this watch will do.
i have changed style a bit....
....rather than change daily, i change weekly now. Enjoying that process more.
How do I love thee: Let me count the ways...
Mickey has been blessed over the years to have worn some of the very best: PP, VC, AP and Lange. However his first love has always been Omega. As we know you love the one you lost the most ;-( Mickey has owned and traded away 2 of these in the past. He re...
