Awesome!

I love this report on a watch I have admired for some years now.  Your excitement and enthusiasm is contagious, as I am now wanting one of these for my collection.  :-D   I have come close several times.  The Ploprof is an unmistakable icon, as you noted, and what a history!

Thanks for sharing this GTG.  Am I correct that all of these four are from among the original Ploprofs and not the re-edition from a few years ago?  Do any of these owners also own the re-edition?


Best,

respo

Great to see all theses PloProf all in one space. I am a big fan also but I can only match your with three. At least all the bases are covered. I need to put a report together. Bill Ps the ray was happily released. ...  

Bravo, Bill. That is such an achievement. Bring one with you, please.

Great pictures and it looks like the gathering was a lot of fun. Always great to spend time with some good watch buddies. I have always been intrigued by the PloProf. Just so much history and such a unique watch. I have always wanted to pull the trigger o... 

Watta stack!! . . .

. . . usually, I find watches approaching this size to be unmanageable on my wrist, but the Ploprof is one notable exception. It's immense, no doubt about it, but . . . . . . the asymmetrical plinth-like case tends to subliminally minimize the impression ...  

Thanks for joining with the reissue Art...

The Polprof is much better for stacking than the Polaris! :) Best Blomman

The secret of Polaris stacking...

is like for big crowns...horizontal stacking ;-)

Agreed, a very risky game, with the Polaris. Couldn't stack more than 5.
