TGIF - What are you wearing today?

 
 By: Alkiro1 : February 9th, 2018-00:22
Hi all, Still few hours of toil before a new weekend. What are you wearing today, tonight and maybe for this weekend? From my side, my Vacheron Constantin Triple Date Moon Phase and its gorgeous wavy pattern dial. Have a nice day. Best wishes Alkiro ...  

It is the heavy duty IWC Ingenieur 1832 today. Have not worn it for a while as the bracelet was a bit too tight after I had removed one link a long time ago, but I .....

LOL my friend ๐Ÿ˜ I lost weight too and when I took my Overseas yesterday, I felt the difference.

 
 By: Alkiro1 : February 9th, 2018-01:14
This IWC has really a cool look. Maybe not as known as a RO or Nautilus but definitely desirable. Have a nice day and weekend. Best wishes Alkiro

Great watch!

 
 By: Harry2 : February 9th, 2018-23:09
Glad to hear youโ€™re keeping in shape. Iโ€™m going the opposite

Very stylish!

Great way to start weekend!

 
 By: jml_watches : February 9th, 2018-00:44
I'm wearing the usual suspect And a sidekick! I'm sure it'll probably change when I get home, as this is currently running & getting some attention Cheers JML ...  

Perfect! One for each day until Sunday ๐Ÿ˜‰

Donโ€™t try to resist ๐Ÿ˜‰

Black Friday

 
 By: VinnieD : February 9th, 2018-01:40
In honour of the recent stock market correction, I am wearing an appropriate 'Black Friday' Swatch from 1989 Owned it since new and still like to wear it from time to time... it has clearly sparked my love for the Speedmaster. The Braun alarm clocks from ...  

Stick around long enough

 
 By: VinnieD : February 9th, 2018-01:41
And your three watches will become thirty in no time! So many temptations here... beware

Fortunately (or unfortunately for me!),

 
 By: sham1 : February 9th, 2018-01:44
I will not be able to afford 30 watches so my ultimate target is 7, five Pateks (1530A, 5099RG, 7200 London Edition, 5940G, 3878J), a Cartier tank cintree and a RW Smith The trick would be to be disciplined enough to keep to this 7!

this is a nice limitation you have set yourself

 
 By: VinnieD : February 9th, 2018-01:59
30 such wonderful pieces would be gluttony 7 seems to have been reflected upon: good luck in your hunt I personally try to stick to 5-7 which is more than enough indeed

Thank you!

 
 By: sham1 : February 9th, 2018-02:06
Well, when one has been accustomed to having two watches for a long time, seven would almost seem like being greedy! 2018 for me has been the most significant watch year so far by far and I anticipate three watches to be added to my two watch collection. ... 

I am tempted to accept your bet my dear friend!!! :-)

 
 By: sham1 : February 9th, 2018-08:18
I think if I want to add to my collection after seven watches, I will have to sell one just to ensure I win that bet!!!

You wonโ€™t succeed in this strategy believe me ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜‰

Howโ€™s your Scottish trip? Best wishes Alkiro

Just got home thank you

 
 By: sham1 : February 9th, 2018-09:28
Scotland was bliss. Drove 800 kms through the snow Will fly back to Kuala Lumpur on Monday. Will be here in May to attend a dinner by my AD. Incidentally, Patek Geneva at the request of a director at Patek UK (who has been terribly kind to me in the past)... 

Itโ€™s a very very good news my friend if they can do that for you. Very kind from PP. of course, that would be a great pleasure to take macro shots of your 3878 believe me ๐Ÿ˜‰

 
 By: Alkiro1 : February 9th, 2018-11:13
Regarding Scotland, I hope that was not too difficult to drive with so many snow. At least, landscapes were probably amazing. Best wishes Alkiro

Driving in the snow

 
 By: sham1 : February 9th, 2018-11:44
and through snow is always a lovely experience. On the 2nd day there, I decided to ditch my predictable, boring and unadventurous self and overtook more than 40 cars (I stopped counting after 32!) as the roads were so straight and one could see the road i... 

Wow my friend! Youโ€™re not Schumacher but rather Ari Vatanen if we talk about snowy roads ๐Ÿ˜

 
 By: Alkiro1 : February 9th, 2018-12:27
Patek is top without any doubt and even if I donโ€™t own one (for the moment) but a watch coming from an independent like Voutilainen, Grรถnefeld... is not too bad too ๐Ÿ˜‰ Best wishes Alkiro

Voutilainen and Gronefeld

 
 By: sham1 : February 9th, 2018-12:35
are two independents I would not hesitate to buy from. Unless any rich relative who loves me a lot leaves this world, I will have to stick with my small collection! May they all live a long and healthy life (and my relatives too )

Yes I agree

 
 By: sham1 : February 9th, 2018-13:44
that part of the joy of buying a watch is actually saving up for one. It makes the whole experience that much more special and memorable. I must confess if push comes to shove and I am 'forced' to choose one independent watch, it would be the Gronefeld Re...

You probably have more will-power than I do, but I find that the acquisition momentum is difficult to slow down once it gets going.... ๐Ÿ˜

Willpower is hardly through choice

I think for many of us

 
 By: sham1 : February 9th, 2018-13:41
we can't afford to go on spending sprees every year so we have to take a break for one year (or even two) if we had splurged in the year before. This is an addictive hobby and discipline and willpower are quite necessary to keep things in check especially...
