Hello dear friends! Winter is arriving to our members living in the Northern Hemisphere and I wonder if our friends have a special fondness for wearing certain watches in this cold Season. Here in the South where I live our Winters are mild but I speciall...  

Friends & Team, 😉 Well, full Winter still is not here but Temps are falling and trees mostly have already changed/lost colors.. - So it‘s also some pics from before and some newer ones. Thus I‘ll mix them up a bit.. All Funky (70ies) Memovoxes here: Up/1:...  

... rotation so many wonderful timepieces on your wrist. And you share them is some great pictures as well. The first picture of your JLC family is really stunning and I´m specially fond of that shot of your E872 on a tasty chocolate bar and your superb e... 

I“m happy you apparently liked the selection and you so much as I do, there is always that bit of personal pref in showing but even more, in wearing a given piece on a certain day !.. it‘s with some natural pride, that we both consider us - despite all di... 

... in your collection and sharing the ownership of many of them as we have discovered along previous posts. Thank you for your kind good wishes and I send you same mine in return. Best cordial regards, Abel

😊

On the stingray is such a signature piece for you - always a pleasure to see (not that the others are not great, too) 👏🏻🙌🏻👌🏻

😊

Love especially the JLC E 872, the JLC Geomatic in RG and especially your last shot of the JLC E 855, which is simply beautiful. All the best Thomas

Love the visuals of this reference ...  

Thank you for starting the thread with this unique piece. Hagwe, Abel

Rose gold / multi-gold color case with intricate matching 'flip' top cover. Came with pin buckle from factory, yet mine needed the Patek Philippe Deployant (worn 'backwards') as the head is quite hefty and my thin wrist/shape benefitted from the Deployant... 

... I feel. The multicolor case and flip cover system makes it so special. Best cordial regards, Abel

That's very cool!

And love the closed till you need it approach - very wintry ❄️👌🏻

That’s a Patek I really like!! Love the very special appearance and the very romantic dial. Beautiful!!!! 🙏

My Yellow Submariner Ref 16808 from 1987. Its original blue dial turning purple under Sun light. My ref 1803 DD from 1969: Omega 145.022 1969 Tribute to Astronauts frim 1969, Breguet La Tradition and FP Journe Octa Reserve de Marche AP Royal Oak 15202st J...  

… which I don’t dare to wear with a short sleeved garment. It’s faceted bezel and bracelet center links are so shiny under day light that it telegraphs so loudly that I’m wearing a Rolex ! ...  

I specifically like the intriguing way of displaying the calendar ! 👍 Best, 😊

Anyway I appreciate it so much having the most complex movement Rolex makes today and offering an unique system to set time and calendar as well as complications of Annual Calendar (intriguing indeed) and GMT indication. Thank you for your kind comments. ... 

As you know, I truly love several of your great line-up; the 16808 is an amazing watch - I love its intense colors; yet I almost equally appreciate your following goodies not much less !! - Your Threesome of Omega 145.022 1969 Tribute to Astronauts /1969,... 

Glad you like my other pieces in my selection. I reserve them for the Winter Season because I don´t usually dare to wear them in hot weather and with short sleeves garments as our part of the world is rather dangerous for those who enjoy freely wearing hi... 

And it’s a shame that you cannot wear them all year around (but fully understand the situation). The white dialed RO is such a nice reference and your shots as always are superb 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

... been getting worst and worst year after year. Snatchers seem to identify an Oyster bracelet (bee it steel or gold) from a long distance. Rolex watches are the most coveted trophies for these guys. But lately other brands like Panerai have been a targe... 

🤣

Just because I didn’t wish to bore our friends here with so many watches dear Timeout! But here it is my CdeV which is in my wrist during since last Monday: Hagwe my friend!! ...  

You obviously appreciate the warmth of colored gold from time to time. I find your Day Date particularly beautiful. 36 mm? Cheers Thomas

... in a not visible way not only for the safety reasons I explained but also because I prefer to keep a low profile style in my daily life. Anyway I enjoy wearing them from time to time and indeed they add a touch of warmth when I view them on my wrist. ... 

Not that long ago, we were just talking about summer watches and now we are nearing winter again. To qualify as "winter watch", I will put them thru some low temperature testing and hope they survive 😂⛄️ And you have shown your fav that will melt thru sno...  

Not easy to choose just one shot or watch among these you posted as they are all awesome pictures but if pressed to do it I would go for your 1675 against mountains. Fantastic! Thank you so much for your kind comments on my own selection! Hagwe, Abel

my vintage GMTM are holding up well in such temperatures

But that first shot of the Freak in the snow is absolutely epic. As are the rest but the combination of the model and the picture really does it for me 🙌🏻👌🏻❄️👏🏻

under unusually cold temp and it is in my rotation for cold weather trips😉.

No matter the weather 👍🏻

In any case, it is a spectacular watch and definitely on my wish list. Cheers Thomas

Good afternoon, dear Abel. Let me start with vintage, as vintage fits always with winter time: White gold and winter shirt: A military watch with winter clothing and boots: I just noticed: must have been quite a frequent watch rotation that winter, as I a...  

The Futurematic is a watch I love so much. Regret to say I never found one here in my hunting grounds. A very unique timepice from JLC it is. The La Tradition is a watch I love so much. It had been haunting me for years till I finally captured mine a coup... 

With a bit of detail on how complicated things get! Cheers JML ...  

Nice shot! Here are pictures from real photographs of the movement in my watch: And another shot of it! 🤭 ...  

… in your collection!!

Great shots - especially like the Tradition one 👌🏻

I love the variety of your choices.

Beautifully captured watches! Cheers Thomas

I am sure, you will also do. 😉 Glad you liked the pictures, dear Thomas.

...  

Enjoy it so much and Hagwe! Abel

What a cool pairing 🙌🏻👌🏻👏🏻

Currently in rotation some strap watches as i pref to wear a rubber or bracelet watch for the summer. Just picked up these for the next month Hagwe 🙏🏻🤗 ...  

... the cold Season. The La Tradition by Breguet seems to be a very popular watch in our community and it has good reasons to be so. A very beautiful watch full of Breguet DNA and inspired in a real pocket watch made by the Master himself in the early 180... 

Getting more and more recognition it deserves. Lots of talented watchmakers told me this watch is one of their inspiration for there projects.

Is the Breguet a relatively fresh addition?

Thanks my friend 🙏🏻🤗

Really works well with the watch 👍

Wonderful wrist shots, dear Wotw!

Fortunately shots from previous years are. I do miss having snow in October, though 🤷🏻‍♂️❄️ ...  

But no snow as of yet this season 🤷🏻‍♂️ Although… at least I have experienced some already some weeks back: ...  

Was the trip to the Großglockner 😁👍🏻

www.watchprosite.com

Having worked in the industry that’s a definite - they came on two days after the trip but as it was still September and there was no prior indication that snow was a possibility I wanted to make the most of the summer ones.

There’s a link to the post somewhere above 😁

Find winter to be one of my favorite seasons - especially those with plenty of snow ❄️

… come to our help. You share some great choices and shots to answer the theme call. The GS high beat dial matches the snow color and texture of a sky slope! Fantastic dial as usual with GS! Hagwe! Abel

Hopefully some more snow will come soon 🤞🏻❄️

Like the Habring especially 👌🏻
