This week's vintage pickup (hommage à Tony C.)
Just got home from vacation and *had* to make a stop at my watch seller's. This one was the "throw-in". One of the nicest alarm watches ever.
I have a few Vulcain crickets but never fell in love, although they are fine watches. This one came with box and original buckle - circa 1960 - and it would pass Tony's condition standards.
Best,
Ginger

That looks like a great diver
but what is it in reality? The bezel is counting backwards like a mission timer. And what are the pushers for? I do not see and chrono counters or additional hands? Could not find it on the Sinn web page. Anyway, it is looking great to me. Best, Martin
perharps one of the best divers
The pushers are to activate the chrono ( lemania 5100 caliber ). I used the bezel timer to cook ( penne rigate 11 min ) click here
Thanks for the pointer
A pity this Sinn is not available any more. I like these clean tool watches a lot and this is certainly one of the best exsamples. After reading the page you pointed to I remembered that there is a similar watch by Tutima, called Einsatzuhr. It differes f...
Love these Sinns.
Bulky, super resistant, and very nice looking. Best, my friend. Nicolas
Route 66, a classic! :)
Thank you, my friend! Hope you will enjoy your weekend with your new catch Best Blomman
You had me there for a moment...
I thought maybe you were visiting us. Great photos and awesome strap. I love that color for summer. HAGWE, respo
Unfortunately I am not in the US…
You like? Thanks, one of my favourite summer straps! HAGWE Blomman
I thought that first picture looked a bit dangerous ...
... what would happen if a car came along?! But nicely done images. Thanks Andrew
Andrew, if a car came along…
I would be very surprised!! :-O Since the background of the photos is a picture from JLC yearbook 1… Best Blomman
I was fooled by your first photo for a few seconds
And then I saw the second photo. Clever work Blomman! Regards, Richard.
I didn’t intend…
I didn’t intend to, I just wanted a background that matched the colours! But the outcome was more surprising then I could ever imagine Thanks Blomman
I love this kind of pressure on our Judges...
Maybe we can send them Poy's 2 Monstruous Dogs? Best, my friend. Nicolas
Just wait till Art taps you on the shoulder ...
... to be a judge, then you will feel the pressure and responsibility! A
Thank you, Graham! :)
Happy you like it! I think we all are winners each weekend – to see so many beautiful watches lined up! Pure pleasure Best Blomman
Nice catch, DeNico!
Looks good on your wrist! In which movie did "Bobby" wear this one? HAGWE Blomman

I am looking for you...
...been scanning the wrists on Rittenhouse Square, PeaceFrog. Looks like a friendly meeting. respo
Fortuitous coincidence, PF . . .
. . . I'd probably faint if I ran across another G O in the wild! Not once in nine years :-( . . .
I just saw two guys in the elevator
one had a RG Big Bang King with diamond bezel, the other had a WG PanoInverse (XL I think.) I've seen quite a few nice watches here recently, but that G.O. looked stunning, wow! Have a great weekend all
Even more beautiful and much more ...
understated with the leather strap, but less "extra cool" as well Oliver
Gorgeous!
Hi Nicolas, I do not know enough about watches to grab the historical significance of this watch, but it is simply stunning. It looks like it breathing a lot of history. And the movement is something to be enjoyed thoroughly. What is the meaning of the re...
As it was a Pilot Watch, Martin
My guess is that the red triangle was painted a a repere, to allow the pilot to have a visible reference. This is a cool watch coming from the 40ies / 50ies. I needed to find a Sister to my Speedie. Best, my friend. Nicolas
Joining Blomman with orange
Waiting for the football word championship to start. Anybody else also? HAGWE everybody! Martin...
Pocket watch week ...
Started carrying this today and will be using it all week. Join me if you wish; it certainly feels different ... Andrew...
Andrew, you had a quite different Friday...
... looking at the dress you wearing seems you must be attending a great function this Friday? anyway, it is always good to wear something different. stefan
Hey Nicolas! I am trying to nap here...
Nice catch. I like it! I am still wearing this piece from last week...Why change? HAGWE everyone! -- Richard....
You're absolutely right, Richard.
Why changing such a beauty? Thanks, my friend. Best, Nicolas
"Why change?" Well, maybe your son ...
want´s it ... Just kidding. This is a very nice watch, which I tried several times. Unfortunately it doesn´t look that good on my wrist :-( HAGWE Oliver
Richard...excellent choice!
Hi there, I cant agree more with Nicolas remarks.....This is really a simple beauty! BHK9
Ouch...Fernando is showing some heavy stuff!
Havey but so nice! Have a WE of perpetual pleasure, my friend. Best, Nicolas

How cool is this? Much cooler than only "Automatik", isn´t it? Fits you very well. Oliver
