My DNA …
By: AndrewD : April 22nd, 2010-17:03
With all the discussion about DNA on HoMe recently, this is the watch that I feel most ‘comfortable’ with. It feels like it was designed just for ‘me’ and perfectly reflects my personality and what I want from a watch. And it’s like slipping on a pair of ...
Gorgeous, Andrew.

Out with the Persol’s. I don’t usually wear sunglasses at night, but I feel like I need to! Great lume shot, Richard. What did you ‘charge’ it with or perhaps it’s just the 10-sec exposure? Andrew
Super charged...

with a Streamlight scorpion torch. Its a small torch that was advertised as the type used by the FBI and like you see in TV shows such as The X-Files putting out those really high beams. Supposedly provides around 7000 candlepower. No half measures here. ...

Sounds like a treasure chest and great fun, Aaron. Hope you took a few shots for us to see at some stage. So this one has a Longines movement? Andrew
That is a BIG watch! :-)

An optical illusion?...
By: pplater : April 22nd, 2010-22:40
Great shot as always, Geo, but it looks as if the watch is actually reflecting in the huge buckle beneath. What's the story - Gulliver wears Cartier??? ;-) Cheers, pplater.
Thank you pplater
By: Geo : April 22nd, 2010-23:16
It's in fact the watch leaning on my belt buckle (that's why it's so large) and some reflection. Glad you like the shot. GEO

Chronometers
By: AndrewD : April 23rd, 2010-15:10
Actually it would be a very difficult choice for me between these two chronometers. If it had to be one, I would still choose the Connie, probably because the dial gives it a touch more 'dressiness' and versatility, but I love the sober analytical side of...
Dressiness versus " intellectual simplicity "... :)
By: amanico : April 23rd, 2010-23:01
Difficult to choose between these 2, indeed, except that, MAYBE, the movement on the Geophysic is above, IMO, ad it is one of the nicest Chronometer movemement ever made, with the Peseux 260. Best, my friend. Nicolas

I really misunderstood your post, my friend.
By: amanico : April 23rd, 2010-14:38
I thought you were on to let it go. So, IMO, you'd better follow your heart on the Memo way, and to attack some rare vintage birds... Such as the Deep Sea Alarm, for example. Best! Nicolas
Yes…
