That's a gorgeous wrist shot, Nico . . .
. . . damn, I wish I was on vacation!
On the bright side, Scott has found a few interesting vintages locally, and we'll be meeting up today to check them out. One of them is a JLC ;-) . . .

In 30 minutes, it will be Friday, in Paris.
To celebrate it, a wrist shot of a watch which was one of my favourite companion during these holidays, and a nice reminder of a great time: HAGWE! Nicolas...
Last week ...
... i was ready to start the WS-thread .... BUT .... some crazy French guy did it before me .... LOOOOOOOOL .... Ze Biem
A little bit unusual to be on my wrist…
I haven’t had this one on my wrist for a very long time. HAGWE Blomman...
Naaah, Blomman, you also have a Panerai???
Pam 111? You're a man full of surprises! Best, Nicolas
I don't know who's more surprised, Nico . . .
. . . you, or me! It looks like Mr Vintage rolls with the Jet Set, too ;-) . . .
Mr Vintage…?
Is that a new nickname for Nicolas?! Rolling with the Jet Set..? Na, that’s not me! Best Blomman
Hey, Hawkeye!
Yes, it’s my PAM 111! Had it since forever… or at least 7 years… Usually one of my summer watches (on a rubber strap). But this summer she didn’t came out to play at all… I have many times thought that maybe let her go for something else. But every time I...
Well, it was quite easy, don't you think?
Did you stop your journey into Panerai with this Luminor Marina, or were you further? Best, Nicolas.
Well…
To be honest, the only brand I feel I can say that I have made a journey in would be JLC. All other brands I might been sniffing around but never taking a trip…! I really like the base models of Panerai, as you know I like clean dials. What could be...
Now it's friday :-) ...
Still deciding ..... My cat is a bit angry at you Nicolas !!! .....
Filip, have you posted about that F.C. in the middle before?
I'd like to see more and learn more about that one. The group shot is lovely. Best, respo
I did ..
... but just one or two pictures .... I'll try to take some descent pics this weekend. filip
Root...
A truly classic my friend... Your back ground was my watch lovely bed :o) HAWGE Best Chung...
You certainly know how to make holidays last, Nico ...
Great shoy of the RO and it's hard to believe that watch and design was so far ahead of its' time. Certainly looks great today, though! Andrew
I have become predictable ...
The Octa RdM is still on my wrist, but at least I can show you a photo you haven't seen. The darn thing is just so perfectly weighted and sized and comfortable. I don't even want to take it off in the evenings....
Well, perhaps you've found your perfect watch, Andrew . . .
. . . maybe it's time to quit while you're ahead ;-) . . .
This half is perfect, but ...
... the other half lacks that whirligig tourbillon thingummy. But the unanswerable question at the moment is: would I wear a Tourbillon Souverain all the time, or would it be too 'special'? And it's really too early to tell if this is the watch. But I hav...
The funny thing is ...
I just got around to re-reading my first post back in 2005 and I see that I had written: "Now I just to save up for the other watches that stole my heart in Singapore: the Lange 1815 Chronograph (the movement reminds me of my Grandfathers pocket watch) an...
Theme
One of the few watches I can think of where the bracelet follows the theme established by the dial. Stunning combination, Julian. Andrew
Even if I am not a colored gold fan, I can only admire this gorgeous PP, Julian. [nt]

New arrival about 4 hours ago...
My nephew that is... ................................... not the watch. HAGWE, Regards, Richard....
Congratulations....
May he have a long and happy life.... As a start, I think that you should promise him this watch, as it is his first wristshot, for his 18th birthday... HAGWE Cheers
Thanks PP...
Perhaps, but maybe for the 21st birthday. Depends on if the parents will allow me to turn him into a WIS or not. Regards, Richard.
Thanks Richard...
Absolutely a great reason (not that I've ever really bothered with reasons before). Regards, Richard.
Congrats, Richard!
And congrats to the parents! A great classic tool watch you got there! Best Blomman
IWC today
A really nice watch (not a vintage this week) that doesn't get the wrist time it deserves - a 34mm Portofino with gold Arabic markers. I am wearing it right now, but chose to photograph it on the unspoiled upholstery of a new piece of furniture delivered ...
The watch really pops out of that photo
Well done, really like that shot. GEO Sorry this line should have been underneath Nico's photo This message has been edited by Geo on 2010-09-02 23:44:50
Thanks a lot, Geo.
With such a bakground, the watch had to be at the same level... Best, Nicolas
Aaargh, Patrice...
If this one reintegrated my short list, it is all your fault! Best, Nicolas
Exquisite, Patrice . . .
. . . both the photo in aesthetic terms as well as the watch . . .
I'm afraid you might....
change your mind about the yellow metal once you start. Never knew you had such a lovely AP! Nice pic. by the sea;my favorite location. Best fernando
Well, Fernando, I have something in mind, and will see
In 2 weeks if it works... With a bit of luck, this time. Best, Nicolas
Don´t tell me it starts with a ...
C and ends with a t. If so, I wish you good luck Wish you good luck anyway. Oliver
Can't say nothing, my friend...
I have to make a deal with one of my friends, and as I am a bit superstitious... You now me well, obviously. Best, Nicolas
hi Richard
looking Good :0)) did you have the BP Serviced here in the U.S if i may ask ?!. cause my local AD told me that "in General" they send all the BPs to Switzerland. !??? mine looks like it needs a Spa as well (16 Seconds fast per day).. Cheers good weekend T...
Superb, Richard.
As per a funny coincidence, I played a lot with my G.O Senator Navigator, this week. A kind of close cousin of yours. Best, my friend. Nicolas
Yes, your piece wants to visit her American cousin...
So purchase a plane ticket for her Nicolas! ;-) LOLOLOL Wonderful piece you have my friend. It is really nice having the 5002 back on my wrist. HAGWE! -- Richard.
The big fly boy! :)
Looks strong, Richard! That one has been on my non JLC wish list for ages… One day…! Best Blomman
I love this watch so much, Matt.
We'll have to organise a photo session for this one! Best, Nicolas
In the meantime...
Here is a better, less compressed shot from this lot. Matt This message has been edited by MattS on 2010-09-04 10:11:50...
Very good looking Chrono, Livius.
One we don't often see, therefore. Thanks for the pictures! Best, Nicolas
Cousins enjoying each others company!
I had the fortune, to catch these two sitting side by side. HAGWE...
I really like the 5726 ...
and with a steel bracelet it would be impossible to resist Thanks for sharing. Oliver
Exhibit 'A' in the case for . . .
. . . simplicity, elegance, and proportionality. Very tasteful all the way around, and the strap is well matched, too . . .
Graham !!
I just got home ;-) ... this beauty reminds me a bit of my old Omega'aas and Alpina'aas in general ... . From 64? Really ? Filip...
of course its from 64....
of course its from 64. along with Omega, Bulova are one of the easiest brands to date. about an hour after i put it on and posted it something else arrived in the post. another 64, this time a Hamilton Thin-o-matic with microtor movement in goldfilled cas...
i suppose no watch is...
i suppose no watch is really 'simple', but lets leave the insides where they belong i do enjoy picking these up for a few pennies (comparatively speaking of course) and adding them to my ever growing collection of watches from 'the purists year' 1964. i h...
Well, Graham…
I can a sure you, that you are not alone! The problem is to find these “ few pennies “ watches and know what you gets! I would love to start building a 1969 collection. But I don’t have the knowledge… Best Blomman
hi Blomman, the trick...
hi Blomman, the trick is to start with something you know, like a JLC in your case, learn to read the seller, get all the information you can and make sure you have a safe payment system. most importantly you need to research research and research. it wor...
