Sounds it was the right thing for you to do as well.

You have only two wrists so if you want to give every watch a fair amount of time where you actually wear the thing then the amount of watches in a collection is limited. Of course there are watches with sentimental value and some watches that are the cor

Thanks for mentioning that point!

This is indeed something to consider. I am, however, very very lucky to have a very good watchmaker at hand who is specialized in vintage watches - he has even serviced watches for me with bad parts availability like multiple Universal Geneve Microrotor M

I adore that watch Tim!

Thanks for posting it and mentioning the fact that UN supplied Marine Chronometers to the US Navy. I just happen to have one from WW2 that I thought I would share as my first post on WPS. Here's a few photos to start. I am certain that many visitors to Wa

Thank you very much,

I really fell in love with this model. The Marvin Flying Dutchman was to the Dutch KLM what the Universal Geneve Polerouter was to the Scandinavian SAS, so it has a really cool backstory as well. The fact that it is still under the radar and an incredibly
