The Havana is not as versatile as other dials
The few that I've tried so far...
At long last, it’s FPJ Friday! Let’s see them beauties
Is it time yet? The double barrels are locked and loaded, but 6 odd minutes to go At long last! It’s Friday. Hussam ...
That means a lot, coming from you!
But I can’t take credit for designing the watch, just for picking it. Have a good weekend ahead, my friend
That’s the more versatile version. Love it.
“Simpliciity is the ultimate sophistication”, someone is quoted to say
Super clean watch!
The backdrops to your photos were interesting. I would not give the sumo wrestlers a snowball's chance in hell against that stern-looking bell captain M4
Yes, he stands no chance; the high split is just bluffing.
My sister is currently touring Japan with her husband, so I pulled out this coffee table book to learn more about the country. Then came the FPJ Friday theme. Thanks for looking
Great kick off, my friend. I love those pictues of your beatiful CS. Fun back ground 🤗
. Here it is still early morning here but this is what Im sportting today.i have completely fallen in love with it all over. Happy Friday to You all. Christian ...
Thanks Christian. I can only imagine the crispness of the morning air, where you are. It’s getting very hot here.
The CB is a super icon at this point. I could have joined you back in 2015, but the priorities were different back then Have a good weekend ...
Yes, lovely crisp and mild.
We have all had to prioritize in life and many things are much more important than watches. I have to say that it looks great on you nonetheless. HAGWE
Well the only option now is secondary market.
And while the prices have come down to around 85k usd, it’s still a bit much.
Market value is objective and value to oneself is subjective, but I tend to live by a “one watch per brand” rule.
That being said, a close friend’s CB’s is one text away if I’d like to call it mine (and I know how deep a discount he got on it back then 😝)
This is what’s great about collecting.
I’m exact opposite. Except a few pieces that have emotional meaning to me, I’m only focused on Rolex, Patek and FPJ. While there are other watches I’d love to add, my next watch is likely to be a Patek (just need some event to make it work 🤪).
Sorry not sorry 😜🤪😝
Truth is that pam0010 has a sentimental meaning for me. While I still love the brand, I do feel like they aren’t being true to their roots right now. So I’m not so into the modern day iterations. But I still love the military style watches they make.
Btw, a very suave patient of mine today saw the CS on my wrist and immediately said:
“Cool watch, undoubtedly a Patek!” I didn’t correct him, and took it as a compliment (I don’t personally own any Patek’s - got the wife a 6119R)
I’ve seen so many amazing watches on patients.
Especially those from mid east. Things I’ve only seen in magazines and watch blogs.
That makes the count: 2 CS’s and one CB.
Let’s see how things progress for this roll call
Wish Siri could tell stock from stuck …
I guess I’ll be watching the market closely today 😜
You know I love that one.
I have that Monocle book too 😂 Here’s what I will share. Admittedly from earlier this week as I have the Octo (see my post this AM) on the wrist today. The CB did get a lot of wrist time this week and over the last few weeks actually. ...
Knew more CB’s will surface, and you wear this one very well.
Still miss your CTS, though. Funnily, I’ve worn that same strap on my CS before
It’s a great strap for your CS.
And I like it a lot on my CB too; for those “all blue” days.
Beautiful CS!
And Japan is the top of my list for travel destinations. Cheers to all, and have a great weekend. ...
😮 😮 🤯
Very happy to see the new addition (if I’m not mistaken) still commanding some wrist time. Looks at home in this casual snap. What are you double splitting (chronometrically)?
Thank you very much. The honeymoon is still going strong.
It’s been hard to take off, honestly. Really enjoying getting to know it. Nothing being split here. I suppose I just like to remind myself of the ability to do so. 😄
The elusive olive strap. Fantastic.
That makes it 3 CB’s and 2 CS’s. More must be lurking around
Knew you’d roll by with an FPJ, or two or three
. I’m curious as to how your Havana handles different [colored] straps
My oh my 😍🤯.
Huge fan of that Havana. Does that make it 4 CB’s and 3 CS’s, or does the Havana command its own category?
I love the Havana dial.
Esp with platinum as you have it here. I begged for it but it’s so hard to get from FPJ. Just beautiful. Very unique.
