WristScan

... this Thursday evening here, i attended a JLC SIHH preview... finally managed to see and try many beautiful timepieces, of course including three models that i like most, i.e. Reverso TT 1931, DSA and MUT Moon. luckily took a wrist shot for this superb...

new strap gives it vintage feel. best, Horo

Best, Horo

.... i remember you was putting another Nato strap for your LLD.. then i wen to look for similar one for my LLD too. now you got another nicer one... can't catch up from you :-( by the way, this strap also looks very nice for your LLD on your wrist. well ... 

it should become the 'purists' nato strap of choice. the black looks good on the LLD G

Gotta go get me some brown ones Best Tyler

i dont like the buckle and extra strapping on the side so i've devised a way to wear it that cures the problem. hard to explain, but effectively you dont put the strap through the spare bit with the loop on, you turn that back on itself so it next to the ... 

just the plain old steel daytona...  

Best, Horo

Nice picture. You have encouraged me to get out my only white-dialed watch, a Mark XV from IWC, and wear it with crisp white shirt and jeans this weekend. Thanks! Andrew

of a static shot I promised to send to Nicolas, from our time at SIHH. A not often seen Le Coultre with the Memovox alarm. This watch has been repaired several times, still running strong. I actually do not know the date of manufacture, a real work horse....  

We have discussed Roman numbers over at JLC Forum this week. Please feel free to join in with yours! BTW, one I would love to add to my watch box… HAGWE Blomman

very sweet my friend.

That piece is a real winner -- must be great fun to wear, especially when that alarm goes off... Best, Gary G

when your iPhone got wet! Hope you are warm and Happy this weekend. Best, Tim

thanks for sharing. stefan

long ago. A true keeper. Best, Tim

i love to take random pics of the watches i am wearing whilst having a cuppa. gives me time to reflect on time pieces new and old worn that day, and its relevance to my current collection, and refreshes my memory on its acquisition and for me to once agai...  

Congratulation. If you swap the Antigua with the Classics. You have 2 classics. A watch and a kopi. Best Tyler

Perhaps not, but a VH Antiqua perched precariously across a mutton curry is rather frightening! Another superb watch. On my list since 2004, although I'm not sure I would actually wear it regularly and my taste has shifted away from exotica and 'statement... 

I swear there is still a whiff of coffee whenever I wear it. Best, Horo

I'm green with envy... Best, Gary G

Best, Horo

I would not get it near a cup of hot fluid - good for you! Best Andreas

With a watch like this, I think I better heed your advice! Best, Horo

Have a great weekend. Best, Horo

it has a "sweet girl next door" feel to it. let me know if you are keen,maybe do a group purchase? best, Horo

The novelties?! I wish they would come my way to show them… I just have to wait until JLC starts to ship them. The TT 1931 looks great on you! Your next Reverso? HAGWE Blomman

... particularly the size and proportions. Have JLC got it right for the 'modern' world? Andrew This message has been edited by AndrewD on 2011-02-18 02:33:50

A long love story with this Sonata: Best, Nicolas....  

Stunning, my friend! HAGWE Blomman

The most original being this one. Best, Nicolas.

Do you use it to wake you up in the morning? I have been doing it with my MMI Best Tyler

And I take it each time I go for holidays too. A delicious watch, which is a friendly companion when you travel with. Best, Nicolas.

I have to ask ... does the GMT function also change the count down on the alarm?

No message body

Looks great and shows off my other favorite horological finish: blued hands. And what hands they are on the Sonata! Lovely. Andrew

Can you imagine? 7 years of common life, in 4 months! Looks like it is a keeper. Thanks, Andrew. Nicolas.

First time I've seen this watch. Some wonderful looking complictaions there. HAGWE

It sounds like a minute repeater and offers a big date ( which can be set forward and backward ), a GMT, an Alarm on 24 hours, and the alarm countdown... A crazy watch, indeed. Best, And thanks. Nicolas;

I assume that the King has two queens... the Memo and the Sonata.... lol cheers

a diva at the opera: exceptional voice, but the appearance is (quite often) not everybodys taste If I would be an Ultra-HNWI, I would buy it immediately - just because of the pleasure of listening

The watch ( as the Diva ) has a too strong personality? Best, Nicolas.

and crisp photo! Nice! Andreas

... have not had chance to hear what sounds of this watch produce... but from the dial, am sure it must be top quality!!! stefan

Have been talking a lot about blue stuff lately… Felt so guilty for my old beater that I decided to dress her up in blue! BTW, anybody recognize the blue ball? HAGWE Blomman...

Curious little thing. I have a hard time believing it will work. Bought a metal case opener instead. Does it have lifespan? Best Tyler

But you have to be very careful, if any dirt on the ball – it might scratch the case back… HAGWE Blomman

The straps are quite eye catching too. And you chose this over the DSA!! Btw, a comment you made just struck me....you chose this watch on thurs evening, for Friday wearing? That demonstrates careful wardrobe planning. I am rather haphazard....unless ther... 

Thank you! Considering my “watch week” it felt natural to go with the Memo Compressor… Mo – TT Polaris 68 Tu – vintage Polaris 65 (LC) We – TT Polaris 65 Th – vintage DSA (JLC) FR – MCM I do try to plan one ...

And particularly in its blue shoes. HAGWE. respo

Is one of my favourite combos. The only colour that beats this IMO is red..! Thank you, Respo! Best Blomman

... it makes me to source some more blue straps for my blue collection too...LOL. stefan

A lot of fun to mix and match! Thank you! Best Blomman

This combo I like very much. Lovely watch! Regards Anders

I have become a horological boring old f..t. I am more than happy to wear the 5513 in most situations. Even my kids recognise it as 'dad's watch' which I really like. It gives it some meaning and life and it's not just part of a big collection. Anyway, I ...

Still runs within COSC spec....though the watch is not rated as one....  

On my wrist this week it is within 4 seconds of where I set it last Friday. That's a particularly good performance, although it's never out by more than 10-15 seconds in a week. Superb for a 44 year old mechanism. A

But I am waiting for something special from my watch maker!!!! Julian...

one time only Bond watch... HAGWE Cheers

"something special", because it belongs to you. The shown Rolex isn´t bad either, so at least we can wait

.

It's the default choice if one is too lazy to think of what to wear. It's like a trusty old screwdriver, when one is lazy to hook up all the new electrical screwdrivers to the sockets and spend hours pouring over the manuals...one just reach out to the ol... 

... and probably looks great even when it's rusty! A

I haven't worn my 1675 for sometime now, you have given me impetus to wear it tonight! Best, Horo

In fact I am now starting to look for one myself - and I used to dislike Rolex! HAGWE Andreas

We love to see your sexy plexi, Andrew! HAGWE Blomman

has a wonderful ring to it. I would wear it even more.

... their mum. So they thinks it's REALLY old. LOL Hopefully Son #1 will cherish it for the memories it contains one day. The F.P.Journe Octa RdM was 'born' the same year as Son #2, and he seems to have an affinity for that piece. So there's the horologic... 

... like your pic... it displays the powerful side of this superb Rolex vintage. my dream watch also, will get it one day! stefan

The best horological decision I ever made. It just took me too long to make it. Andrew

Next week. I'll have a chance to see the SIHH novelties in metal. Can wait My guess this will be the purchase of 2011? Best Tyler

.. and tell me what do you think all these novelties. stefan

While I'm gonnaa be wearing these two... Yes two watches! HAGWE Sam...
