WS for August 17-17 Weekend - Free theme ...

 
By: nilomis : August 17th, 2017-09:06
Team, Let's go! Post your watch(es). Free as in freedom. I start with a single wrist shot of my Speedmaster Co Axial Rattrapante: Let's see yours. Cheers, Nilo ...  

I'm left handed and this means ...

That I'm terrible clumsy. Any handwork to me starts with the removal of the watch or else. Cheers, Nilo

My weekend wear....

will be these two: A day and night theme you might say... Best Blomman ...  

Classic by all counts ...

I miss my GMT(s) but where I live ... no Rolex for me. Congratulations, Nilo

Great combo PP5170G!! Though I have always been more fond of Oyster bracelets on my Rolex...

 
By: Subexplorer : August 18th, 2017-12:35
... I must admit the Jubilee is more comfortable due to its flexibility, and also that I like a lot how it looks in the GMT in particular. As a matter of fact I wear a couple of my GMT with Jubilees. GMT´s look beautiful with this bracelet I feel. Enjoy y... 

Thank you very much Abel!

 
By: Freccero : August 19th, 2017-04:22
The oyster is more sporty and heavy so I like to balance the already sporty watch with a more elegant and light bracelet. Maybe with the submariner an oyster is better but on GMT's the jubilee is perfect IMHO. Enjoy the weekend! Best.

Hi Shot of my Futurematic at work & more unusually me wearing a shirt! Cheers JML ...  

Beautiful Futurematic...

Here where I live, they only shows to sale in gold or gold plated. Cool piece. Cheers, Nilo

Thanks

 
By: jml_watches : August 18th, 2017-01:14
Was lucky to find this - took a bit of searching. All Futurematic s are good - some of the Lecoultre ones have really nifty cases and lugs - all very 50s. Cheers JML

I can't figure this out.

A chronograph with date and a 24 hour subdial/second time zone? And what are the two central hands? I am confused, Obi Wan.

Here is the color version

 
By: Clueless_Collector : August 17th, 2017-18:32
The Red central hand is Chrono seconds, the white central hand with red triangle is the Chrono minute but it moves slowly, which doesn't make sense. The 12 o'clock ring is date, 3 o'clock ring is the seconds hand, 6 o'clock ring is Chrono hours, and lastl...  

You know this is one we share

the same Club Italia edition. One of my absolute keepers for some reason, just love it every time I wear it

Loving the blue.

 
By: fernando : August 17th, 2017-21:05
My most accurate watch to date! On the wrist the date window is very subtle. Better without of course. HAGWE! Fernando. ...  

First time I see one ...

 
By: nilomis : August 18th, 2017-02:32
And I like the design. You need to tell us more about this welcome Visitor. Cheers, Nilo

The Visitor watch is an independent

 
By: timerider : August 18th, 2017-10:34
Watch company run by Phil Rodenbeck. The case design is unique, and the watch is thoughtfully designed for a very reasonable price.

A daytona for the weekend

The green is actually very subtle comparing to the official photos. <3 Have a good weekend everyone. Cheers, Vin ...

By: nilomis : August 18th, 2017-04:43
Of a cool watch, that (believe it or not) never saw one "in metal". Cheers, Nilo

Hello dear Nilo!! The ratrappante complication is very interesting...

 
By: Subexplorer : August 18th, 2017-06:33
... and tempting for me. I'm looking for one chrono with this feature for my collection but haven't found one yet. I feel this Speedy could be a nice answer! Will check it! I will be wearing my PP 5110 G this week end. This is a Magic watch! My grail watc...

Between Los Angeles and Sydney. You go to get very bored looking the GPS map (blue and blue - only ocean) until you see Fiji and then New Caledonia (after some time). Noumea is there! Cheers, Nilo

Ha ha ha!! True my dear friend CC! I would have much preferred...

 
By: Subexplorer : August 18th, 2017-12:16
... that PP had kept Buenos Aires among the cities names on this dial, as it was shown in the earlier versions of their World Time. I´m glad you like this watch and thank you for your kind comments! Hagwe! Abel

Thanks a lot my dear friend Alkiro!! Appreciate your kind comments on watch and pictures...

 
By: Subexplorer : August 18th, 2017-12:20
... this is my Grail Watch and crown of my collection. I really love it! Though I tell you I´m in the hunt for another grail... you know the brand and model! Hagwe my dear friend! Abel

Ahh! Regrettably not yet my friend !! Just made a few calls to my local contacts and waiting for their answer...

 
By: Subexplorer : August 18th, 2017-14:34
... not very easy to find that timepiece here. But I know my friends are doing their best! Will keep you posted of any news! All the best! Abel

You bring a heavyweight to the weekend ...

 
By: nilomis : August 18th, 2017-07:03
Abel, Wonderful Patek. Congratulations. About the Omega Rattrapante, it will be a hard chase. It was released, if I remember, around 2010 limited to 300 or so pieces. Cheers, Nilo

Thank you so much dear Nilo! Glad you like this watch which I love so much. ...

 
By: Subexplorer : August 18th, 2017-12:24
... Ohh! You give me bad news about the Omega indeed! Guess it will be a rare piece to get! You own another rattrapante I like so much: the IWC Pilots chrono in rattrapante version, but I feel it is also out of catalogue since some time now. I feel my sea...

Great watch and drinks. Question: that clear stuff on a glass is water? Cheers, Nilo

A horizontal evening:

Wondering if it's too early in the year to fire up the white beast But after one of these first And a second one - maybe I'll just stay horizontal Have a good weekend all. ...  

Great GP and...

 
By: nilomis : August 18th, 2017-13:06
Please, send the fireplace to here. Abel don't stop sending cold to here! Cheers, Nilo

Horizontal's good.

 
By: TheMadDruid : August 18th, 2017-13:53
Horizontal's good. Especially with that watch and plenty of those "blonds".

Ah great!

 
By: willski : August 19th, 2017-14:37
I was going to post some pics and initial thoughts but if you're working on something I'll wait

I know.

 
By: TheMadDruid : August 20th, 2017-04:00
I kept on clicking on your "post" all day yesterday and got told I'm not important enough to see it yet. So get a move on.

Nice, Willis.

 
By: TheMadDruid : August 19th, 2017-15:48
When you get a break from your fatherly duties please post some info. I just saw this one the other day for the first time.

Geophysic hands

 
By: Prodyutb : August 19th, 2017-22:28
Hi Alkiro, Glad you noticed! The apartment and views around obviously existed well before the watch. But I thought it would be interesting to get a wrist shot at 6 pm when the one of the hands face north. Both the roof in view and the hands of the Geophys...
