" . . . covet thy neighbor's w . . .
Ok, guys, you all know the feeling: you're scanning PuristSPro, and all of a sudden, wham! - a watch pops up that you're just nuts about. Except, it belongs to someone else. Damn!
Here's a few of your watches that drive me crazy. First, a Glashütte Original PanoReserve (on bracelet, yet!) . . .
. . . that belongs to Bob, an infrequent poster who owns the current G O I'd most like to have. Make mine grey, with strap, please, Watch Gods, and I'll be a very happy camper.
Another poster we haven't seen for a while is tempusfugit, who outfitted his Dornblüth 04.0 most tastefully . . .
. . . in rose gold with a black dial and raised rose gold markers. Absolutely delicious!
Fred's ? ref 2648 . . .
. . . could make me forget Black Connie; eterna-fan's chronometer . . .
. . . and Pruzzo's immaculate CK2914 . . .
. . . are never far from my mind.
Let's see the watches that belong to other members of the community that strike your fancy, along with the watch . . .
. . . you're wearing today.
Cordially,
Art

What a topic...
Great Topic!
First watch that comes to mind - Nicolas's 7924 BC. But he knows that already!
Additionally, Bill's 5510 BC. And yes, he knows that already, too!
Other than that, there are some very rare and very nice watches on this site, but none of them are ones that I "covet".
Actually, one more - Dr. Strong (Jeff's) 5513 Tiffany Dial. What a rare watch and such a beauty!
Any one of those three watches on my wrist and my collection would be absolutely complete. A 16600 Sea-Dweller and one of those three watches - what else does a man need?

MY watch du jour?
That's easy - a 16600 for daily use. Also have a 1665. That's the whole collection. Both great pieces!

Well, my friend, you have good taste. I may have something to post which will
... Please you!
Best,
Nicolas
Looking forward to it!
I have a feeling it will either have a Big Crown or a "Submariner" in the title. Or both!

Do you remember the Eastwood classic . . .
That should've been the title of your movie!
That is one of my hottest targets... We'll see if I can do it this year! [nt]
This is an easy one for me as Nicolas knows!
. . . nuthin' better than . . .
I want to be a fly at a NorCal Gang GTG
This Dufour is my lust:
The gang just are tremendous collectors. I got to see Jeff's new Voutilainen Chrono in person here in Philadelphia. Just incredible.
But I also could shop till I drop with Samwan's inventory! Too many to show. I think Sam's taste is just impeccable.

Oh, how could I forget:
JLC TTP 65. I do not know who to give this pix credit to, but I just love it. It seems like the entire community has this watch except me. LUST !!
That is a verrrrry familiar looking reflection in the bezel of that watch!
Without calling any names...
Art, I am not sure I am comfortable with this theme...
It opens up a lot of "old wounds"...
And reminds me of many watches that I have repressed and finally got out of my primary focus!
This is far from all watches here in the forum that have caught my attention....
Just a handful that itches my mind on regular basis...
In no particular order....
Look how perfect she sits on my wrist...!
The watch I will wear tomorrow:
HAGWE
Blomman
You've been blowing my mind.. What can one say.. Grrreat selection !! :)
Let me sleep about it, whether its better to stay silent or
"..whether to weapon oneself against a sea of plagues.."
(Ref: Shakespeare : Hamlet )
Almost too much for a Padawan's delight !!
