My 3

In bronze -  appropriately AP's Bronze Bartorelli diver.







In silver, shown here with an earlier purchase but an interesting comparison none the less, the AP Grand Prix.




The standout winner for me in honey gold - AL&S Moonpase. 




Best and seasons greetings to all.

My top 3 for 2011.....and yours?

 
 By: Baron - Mr Red : December 23rd, 2011-10:15
For the watches i bought in 2011, my top 3 would be quite easy to define. In third place, and somewhat surprisingly for me I place the Pam 195. I own only one other Panerai and tend to enjoy my PAM days, but putting all that pressure on the 36 seems unfai...

Since I purchased only one. But it has had a tremendous amount of wrist time. The most comfortable watch because of the wonderful bracelet design and weight distribution. But I love your JLC! J....

Hi, 3 rd place would go to my Chronoswiss Regulateur 24. It’s a simple hand-wound piece using a caliber from the 1950s and is symbolic of 25 years of Gerd Lang’s work. It is incredibly easy to read and probably gets more comments than any other watch that...  

That J*D is too cool

I love your ALS Langematik Perpetual in PT (I have the RG version and am starting to regret that I didn't go for the PT in the first place) and the FPJ CS is a classic. Best Sam

 By: donizetti : December 24th, 2011-01:28
First, I think I finaly found my perfect perpetual! I have searched for quite a while for an example just like this, with the pusher and the German dial. Had it at the Glashütte Spa where they replaced the old moonphase disk with the new one which is...

The milgaus is a really good catch...congrats mate Best, Horo

Not everyone but hey I forgot to mention you.

 
 By: TdotBean : December 24th, 2011-17:02
Talking to you often enough almost always lead easier justification to add more into the collection. Thanks for chaos Merry Christmas Tyler

As a fan of both the chaos theory and random walk theory

 
 By: Hororgasm : December 25th, 2011-16:57
I can only conclude one should collect everything - It's been a great horological year for a lot of people, yourself included, I know....life is good. Cheers matey, on a cloudy Boxing Day. Off to the rolex shop for my regular New Years day advance purchas... 

Please not the 2011 daytona novelty. Choose the Explore 2 instead.

 
 By: TdotBean : December 25th, 2011-17:22
Oh yes. Black dial please. I have a feeling I be seeing you soon. Regards Tyler

I bought the Explorer 2 black dial already mate, from Wempe :)-

 
 By: Hororgasm : December 25th, 2011-17:41
It's gonna be a real strange choice for me now...it's the YM 2 half steel half gold!!! Never thought I will be attracted by the two tone Rolex ever...at one stage, I was rubbishing them!!! Age? Yes, seeya soon. Best, Horo

Don't for the love of god. Get the white gold version instead, please

I am NOT! ;)

Hey, T-bomb! I am not sure I follow you here – to blame Nicolas… Well, yes - that is by default when ever getting a new watch! But to blame little old me..?! I don’t even have the Milgauss – new or vintage! So to redeem yourself after this false accusatio... 

Hehehe ... ...

 
 By: TdotBean : December 25th, 2011-15:59
I say one word: Pair. You gave me the idea of having the watches in pairs. That's the reason I have both TT DSAs and New/Vintage Milgauss :-D No false accusation. As for sending you the milgauss ... let me think about it on the next millennium;-) Happy ne...
