New Companion : E875
Dear friends,
Thanks to our own Nicolas, I was able to source a watch I had been quietly considering for about 18 months.
That said, it is only my second watch: I am in no way a collector but more of an enthousiast.
Anyway, enjoy these few pictures.
This is the beast, along with my TTGeophysic, which I just love. The E875 is really in such a pristine condition, I never thought I'd get one in such a shape. 
It came with the original strap & tang buckle, which is nice but
not really up to my liking. Feeling the urge to wear the watch, I went
to Camille Fournet to order a strap fit to me. 
In the meantime, I got a NATO strap so I could get some time with the watch. 
I love the color but I wish it was just a regular strap, with the NATO way (!), the watch really protrudes out of the wrist. Im the kind of guy to bang the watch everywhere, if you really want to know.
I went to the JLC boutique in Paris to compare this oldie to the recent Memovox boutique edition. They are indeed really different in sprit: one has to get both (if possible, of course). 
Got this strap from Hodinkee, I really like the color & fabric, I wish I could have one made to my measures. 
The CF strap eventually arrived, and so it is. I didnt really though much about what to pick so I went for a blue alligator. It looks really dressed up, but I like that. I'll look around a bit more before getting something else. Im using a folding buckle, I find it very comfortable. 
Im trying to use the alarm on a daily basis, not necessarely to wake up but more randomly during the day, depending on my schedule.
Cheers to all and thanks again to Nicolas!

Great watch.
Big congratulations Sebi. Very nice JLC and beautiful pictures
Congratulations on the new watch!
Ahhh yes, I love that blue strap, it's my second one. It's a custom made from Camille Fournet, the fabric is "toile St Germain", but they told me that they dont have this fabric anymore...
