Andrew, on the subject of shirts..
i've noticed that some people wear lovely shirts
with initialled cuffs. beautiful quality and very appropriate in the
environment in which they work. i dont have the pleasure of working anymore so
have no need for a shirt like that, but still love the look of a classy watch
poking out from under the cuff. my wife who is a bit of a seamstress had a great
idea. she thought she should make a cuff with initials and a bit of sleeve on
it that i could put on for my wristshots whilst still wearing my normal T
shirt and jeans. a great idea, but i'm true to myself and happy with the bare
armed shot. i'd also feel a bit like a bunny girl at the playboy club
:)

i cant seem to get the hang of wristshots anyway
so it would have been pointless.

I was lucky enough to see this new baby in the flesh,
And it is really a great catch. Even if now, I'm a bit worried for your other Vintage Dayto... But this new one has so amazing brown counters... I fell in love with it! Big congrats, Jeff. Best, my friend. Nicolas

It's a beautiful and sunny day from my window
And a perfect day for golf... so wearing my golf watch once again.......

i'll be wearing my Freak in 2 weeks on Freakie Friday the 13th. RG, special number and not for sale in my lifetime. Graham
Agree, VP Reg
This is the one to hunt... The nicest, the Purest, ( without this writing on the bezel, located under 6 o Clock ), and the first one! Good hunt, my friend. Best. Nicolas
Freak Fever
Just curious to find out who started the Freak fever. Was it Bernard with his passionate postings/
VP, it was Ludwig Oeschlin...
VP, it was Ludwig Oeschlin who started Freak fever by inventing it :) i've wanted one since i read about it in 2001 after its release, but it was reading Bernards post (via google) about it that got me onto the forum 18 months ago when i found mine for sa...

Nice Vintage looking Portuguese, Bernard.
And awesome pics! Didn't know that you also own this one... Best. Nicolas
Thanks
One more in common? :"> I think many purists here do have this one. hard to resist.
Speedy goes exotic this week
i fancied a change and had 10 minutes to spare the other day so i swapped the bracelet for this strap. i dont expect many people will like it, my wife hates it, but i think the colours match quite well. Graham...
Your wife is, as usual, right about the strap:))
Dear Graham, The problem is not so much with the ensemble, although it is a little monochrome, but in the way it looks on your pale English arm. See how much better it looks on the dark pavement. However, part of the fun of having a collection that is in ...
A Beauty of past and should be revived
That is one beauty of a Gondolo model of past year that in my humble opinion should be continued production.
Patek 5010G
This one also appeared around the same time: Another manual model with AB buckle in YG Perhaps I'll wear this one at night....
lovely DR. STRONG!!
I had the same watch...some crazy frenchman bought it off my wrist 3 days later!! Rolex fans are funny!! Thats gorgeous!-- congrats! Cheers- Ian This message has been edited by donzi22 on 2009-01-30 08:47:17
Hard to decide...
if I want to go retro-avante-garde-faux-tribal or timeless classic......
Nice watch band…
Hi Thomas, Nice bit of alligator on the VC. Perhaps cut from the same hide as this one? Great picture and nice watches. Thanks. Andrew...
The shirt…
Thanks Thomas The last time I posted a picture of this shirt ( with a Seamaster ) someone else also commented. I wouldn’t say it is my usual ‘style’, but I guess it’s nice to mix things up a bit when one is relaxing, and it seems to be an appropriate prin...

Mix and match
Hi Graham, It is a fun idea having a ‘photo cuff’ but ultimately you have to be true to yourself. In the past it has been the ‘posers’ that have given some great brands a bad reputation. I think it’s great that you have a range of watches from formal/dres...
Change of plan, new aquisition arrived at lunchtime so i've swapped watches
i've been waiting for this to arrive for about 10 days so it was nice to get it at Lunchtime. i've had a chance to take some pics for your pleasure. Ladies and gentlemen please give a big hand (or wrist) for a 1960 Gruen Airflight, the only 12 hour 24 hou...
Wonderfully quirky vintage, Graham! I've never seen anything . . .
. . . quite like it before. Is the switch between AM and PM instantaneous? The hour hand is remarkable, too . . . that style is not often seen, and off the top of my head, I can only think of UJ and KV that use similar designs . . . cordially, Art
