What about....
my only GO ...
... but on my wrist every weekend since it came back from service with its new glass back:

That's an interesting remark, Andreas . . .
. . . I thought that the sapphire back exchange period ended last year. Did you ask G O to switch the back recently? Cordially, Art
that is correct ...
... got it exchanged last December, but as I wrote it has been my regular weekend watch since!

Sorry, crabman - ya gotta tough it out and hope that . . .
. . . the judge sees merit in your submission. I'm reminded of President Reagan's story about the boy and the pony ;-) . . . cordially, Art
Senator Week
Thanks for the nice gesture - Art & GO.
My attempt with my favourite GO - the Senator Week, I am attracted by its clean and understated dial:
Goh
Why not?
And one of the most technologically advanced pieces made in Glashütte, the 2005 Watch of the Year:
Wonderful, Ray! One little favor, if I may . . .
. . . please drop one of the four photos from consideration, and let me know which by private e-mail. I really hadn't considered the possibility of multiple entries, so I've just added a second rule limiting the contribution to three photos. Thanks much, Art
I do like to be one of the winners ......
Please accept my participation with these pictures
Nice photos...
Among my favorite for pencils...
I am a big fan of Graaf vonFaber-Castell pencils, I would love to own a 0.5mm mechanical pencil or a 0.5mm mechanical pencil from Caran d'Ache. I truly don't like using my 0.9mm Montblanc pencils (which are never used).
The pen of the year
2009, from Graf von Faber-Castell is a masterpiece. Had it for 6 weeks now and I like it better and better.
The next in line will be a Tibaldi for Bentley fountain pen and perhaps a MB Ingrid Bergman for the wife
With your passion for MB – you should check out the Mahatma Gandhi LE
(sorry for the off topic, Art)
Best Jarle
Veering away from watches to pens is quite alright, Jarle . . .
. . . as for myself, I do appreciate fountain pens, but fortunately for my pocketbook and my sanity, I'm entirely satisfied with my modest Sailor . . . cordially, Art
Nice pictures
As a former Leica Collector (had to sell my collection when I purchased my first house, had serial No 1158.. which I should never have sold) do I really like your pictures.
For me you are the winner

Thanks hans_jorgen1968
You are to kind J but I really appreciate your nice comment
Btw - I do like Leica Cameras & lenses a lot – but I’m a bit sorry that my new M9 has to go back to Solms for focus issues. Just want to use it during the holiday before sending it back
Happy holiday!

Leica rules
I had also a focus problem on a M4 and a M6. Mainly when using the 50mm/1,4 Summilux lens.
Arh I miss my Leicas. I am actually trying to find a srew mount Leica 1 or the fixed with a Elmar. Anyway.
Merry Christmas to you and you

Hmmm . . . it never occurred to me that anyone would post . . .
. . . so many. Silly me - I should've known the enthusiasm of our forum members! Please select your three favorites, Jarle, and let me know which they are by private e-mail; I'll pass your final selections to our judge. Amazed in a very pleasant way, Art
