Thanks everyone for your commendation!
It´s really well restored and cleaned.
Special thanks to Andrew for your restoration thought as this is really hard to bear: imagine someone being fussy about his watch being 15 secs fast or slow per day is going to renovate a house .... 
.
BTW, the Telekom technician did not turn up as scheduled so I´ll be offline for some time now :-(.
Kind regards,

29 July, The Happy Watch.
The one that make you smile when you put it on. Doesn't have to be intense but just a sweet pleasant joy. Like meeting up with an old friend. Here is mine, the mermaid has surfaced This time I went all out and got help to make this photo. HAGWE Tyler This...
Hey, it's Thursday morning here! I'm still wondering . . .
. . . which watch to wear ;-) . . .
Huge congrats, T Bomb! :)
Great to see this one on your wrist! Still waiting for my call… Until then – this one makes me smile! Like a wet dream! Best Blomman PS. Very early start this week – maybe I will have to post another watch tomorrow…...
That first photo is outstanding! I can tell . . .
. . . this is going to be a very good session for wrist shots. I've decided to wear my regal Glashütte Original today . . . hopefully, the usual seaside location will be conducive to producing a worthy entry this week.
You where right, Art!
This week a lot of great WS! Thank you for your nice words. Best Blomman
Me too!
Guess it will be a very big one! Even bigger then the Polaris roll call?! Thank you, Tyler! Best Blomman
Hey, some of that photo is mine alone...
... I leave it to you to guess. Hint, I've been trying to lose a little weight lately...
I hang on with an "early Friday"
A Longines Conquest 1961, 18 carat, which I rarely use but I really like it when I wear it. URL=http://forumbilder.se] [/URL] HAGWE Anders...
Beautiful, Anders!
Here is an almost matching ad from 1960 (December 9). Best Blomman...
Thanks Blomman
This ad, I have not seen before. A Swedish ad. Interesting to see what they cost 1960. They had movement 290-294. 291 was probably the most common and that is it with dates. Sometimes the date is placed at 3. But I prefer at 12 Regards Anders
Thank you!
Tyler, Matt and Art. I try my best to get a harmony in the pictures, although I not always succeed, I must admit. The watch is quite a rare model with a date at 12. Regards Anders
I don't know if this is a happy watch but I'm happy with it
Two pics of my Seamaster NZL-32: Now I only need a yacht and, of course, an ocean to navigate. Cheers and a great weekend to all...
A very nice Omega Nilomis
I really like Omegas from the 70's / 80's, I find your watch beautiful as it make me think of the beauty of a 1970's dial with a touch of modernity. A really good balance I think. Best, Mark
Shared pleasure, Geo!
Aaah, by the way, where is this superb Tank you showed me? Next tile you come to Paris, let me know! Best, my friend. Nicolas.
It's been a while, Geo ...
... but I still love this Urwerk. Like the Antiqua it is aging very well. Thanks for the great picture. Andrew
Lady bug makes me smile!...
Especially the last picture makes me smile, I hope it makes you smile too!!! Have a happy friday and a great WE! Matt...
Spectacular photographs, Matt!
"The beetle has landed" came to my mind in slight alteration of the famous line. Thanks for sharing, anaesdoc
Perhaps the ladybug . . .
. . . saw her reflection in the second frame, and took off in fright!
I suspect it to be in collusion with you in exchange of polen
Very nice "water drop" looking glass and beautiful patina Matt ! This message has been edited by Borale on 2011-07-30 08:13:10
staying with vintage
Hi All Still with this at the moment - though thats no bad thing! HAGWE Cheers JML...
Crickey !
Finally it landed onto your wrist Laurens ! Can't wait to see a full photo-essay ! Filip
That Gerber looks swell on your wrist Andrew
That dial is truly mesmerising.The dial really pops with the dark out of focus background.HAGWE cheers,dreamer
Thanks. Taken with ...
... diffuse afternoon light filtering through Venetian blinds, which you can just see reflected in the crystal. I liked the moody effect as well. Regards Andrew
Just as yours is ...
The DSA looks great. Perhaps thanks to Nico, but the TT Polari, Reverso's and DSA's seem to have become community watches as well! Enjoy it. Andrew
Happy for you Tyler!
Looks like you got 'professional' help with that WS - excellent! Love the texture on the dial. cheers & congrats fernando
Not mine but on my wrist
actually, not taken on a friday as well but close enough.. Again... NOT MINE. Just a prototype actually......
Even if it's not yours, Arthur . . .
. . . the few moments you were able to wear it created memories that will last for a very long time.
A good moment for sure !
Is it not to heavy ? (yes I know I have only one quesition about this beauty and it concerns the weight :p ) Best, Mark
It is Mark
a very heavy watch and for the small wristed, I will say not the most comfortable by a long shot BUT.... for those few minutes, I guess comfort is not on the mind
Exactly
I read quite much about this watch and if I have the opportunity to study it for 2 minutes I know I would it would be from every angle. Happy you had this opportunity !
The Beast!
I tried the proto (maybe same as you?) and it was huge on my wrist! But it’s a stunning watch! Best Blomman...
Grinning . . .
. . . from ear to ear with that one, Fernando! If ever a watch could be said to have a "happy face", the Papillon would be it.
Ouch Tyler, that is a killer shot! i will join you with this..
3 weeks, 24/7 and accurate to the minute...
Happy watch, not so happy owner ..
... today ... got up at 02,30 .... Hagwe Purists !!!! Bim...
Something like that ...
... had to pick up my daughter from the airport ... in Liège , 80 miles up and back, then drove to Antwerp, Courtrai and back home, later on the day to Ghent ... you could call it "Tour de Belgique) ... did some 300 miles today ... oh yes and some 30 mile...
So true ...
But this afternoon i think i'm going to stay at home watching some DVD's ... about bikes and cars ... Filip
I wasn't quite happy ...
.. with the result, looks a bit treble to me ... but then my view was also treble since i'm not used of getting out of bed that early Filip
and the Tiffany at back is .... ?
I would think a burger is a happy thing. At least to me HAGWE Tyler
Thats an amazing watch
still on my long list As for a subject - thats the third or maybe 4th one I got - this one will stay since its almost perfect - so after so many attempts to get it - and I really love this design its hard for me not to smile from time to time looking at i...
Now this is a funky beast, Rafal. A specimen in excellent condition.
I noticed that several of them come, nowadays, in almost NOS condition. Like quite a lot of watches from the 70ies, by the way. Which is a great thing for us! Best, Nicolas.
Thank you Nicolas Thats one of them - nos :)
I got it with original bracelet and price tag (400 usd ) - couple of storage marks - otherwise perfect, I just do not want to resize barcelet so it went on the band Funny story I got 2 of them last week - this nos and one other - this other unfortuantelly...
