I simply love this watch ❤️

(This shot was just made today)









It’s been two and a half months since I was allowed to add this gem to my collection. And I still can't believe my luck!! 🙏

A huge step for me that surpasses everything I have acquired so far as a passionate watch lover.

It definitely wasn't an easy decision for me to make. Some of our friends here have followed this directly and also supported me a lot. A heartfelt thank you to all of you for that.

Finally I don't regret this step for a second. It was the right decision.

All the best
Thomas

Congrats to you again!

So glad you were able to acquire this one. I know it took some time/deliberation — I find the research/process so much fun, almost as exciting as the actual acquisition.

The decision process was fascinating, interesting and …

 
 By: MTR : September 5th, 2023-14:03
… demanding. My easiest and most difficult decision, at the same time. Easy, because I was very, very sure about the watch. Difficult, because with this watch I've moved into a price range that I haven't entered before. 🙏 Thank you so much for your kind r... 

Oh that is so nice!

Congrats again on the right (!) decision, it's an awesome watch. Really love this piece! Cheers, Alex

Thank you so much, dear Fab!

It’s definitely a mile stone in my collection which I enjoy immensely. All the best Thomas ...  

Happy for you that you enjoy owning and wearing this

That looks great on your wrist Thomas.

A real marvel, and a feast for the eyes! Kind regards

Thank you very much, dear Kurt!

 
 By: MTR : September 6th, 2023-18:37
I can hardly believe it and always look at this beauty with great admiration and awe. On the other hand, I have absolutely no inhibitions about wearing the watch normally during the day. The wearing comfort is heavenly.

looks incredible

Thank you so much for looking!

Definitely very nice, dear Yacomino!

Thank you for rejoicing with me. ☺️

That is the clearest sign that the watch is beyond any other thoughts or feelings, like yes, or no or the price tag. I know this feeling, too! 😀 Looking great on the wrist to casual, sporty wear!

You have great empathy, Moritz ☺️

Thanks a lot for your kind comment. And I have to say that I'm now in a (new) phase of life where - although still fully in business - I've said goodbye more and more to traditional business clothing. Everything has it's time… I questioned that just like ...  

amazing masterpiece 👏enjoy it!

 
 By: christianch : September 4th, 2023-19:25
I think the time after a purchase is very critical: only after a few months one can tell if the love is still there. Gorgeous piece and I am happy to hear you are enjoying it a lot! Christian

 Thanks a lot, dear Christian!

 
 By: MTR : September 6th, 2023-15:43
I completely agree with you. In this case I have been very sure after the first minute that I have made the right decision. You have a very eclectic collection which I appreciate immensely. Has it ever happened to you that after a few weeks or months you ... 

yes, it does happen 😅

 
 By: christianch : September 6th, 2023-23:28
In honesty I think I need some time to judge a purchase, say 2 weeks at least. Nowadays it is also possible to buy some high-end watches online with a 30 days return policy which I think is great for people like me. Somehow you need to live with a watch f... 

I completely understand you.

 
 By: MTR : September 14th, 2023-17:50
You really have shown us some very nice new watches this year. I think it's good to get rid of one or the other piece every now and then if you no longer wear it or value it enough. Even if you lose a little money in the process (which you do almost every... 

That is a super cool watch.

A super cool miracle…

You have very good taste!

 
 By: patrick_y : September 4th, 2023-20:00

I now think the watch chose me….

 
 By: MTR : September 6th, 2023-06:30
Thank you, dear Patrick! ...  

Hahahahaha

 
 By: MTR : September 6th, 2023-18:33
That sounds like talking about a love relationship. 😁

What a fantastic choice!

 
 By: hanke : September 4th, 2023-20:42
A true masterpiece! Congrats

A masterpiece and marvel from every angle…

All the best Thomas ...  

This dream has come true, mon ami!

 
 By: MTR : September 5th, 2023-14:22
I am very humble and thankful about that. It's really hard to take good photos of this watch, especially if you don't have the skills like you. Maybe we'll do a photo session with this watch together? I would be happy. ☺️ All the best Thomas ...  

So

 
 By: MTR : September 6th, 2023-06:19
something to look forward to, mon ami! ☺️🙏 Maybe you'll be in Vienna one day? Or there is a larger get-together in Europe? Anyway, I'll be in touch with you the next time I'm in Paris!

We will find a way!

 
 By: MTR : September 6th, 2023-18:33

Can't wait!

 
 By: amanico : September 6th, 2023-21:11

Thomas, I shouldn’t be talking to you because you sold your James Cameron 😩, but this GP is beautiful!

 
 By: GWIS : September 4th, 2023-21:35
I saw it a few weeks ago in Bucherer in Interlaken and as great as your pictures are they can’t capture the depth of the watch in real life. Just stunning! Congratulations again. All the best, Jon

Hahahaha.

 
 By: MTR : September 5th, 2023-14:12
I'm really sorry that you don’t appreciate my decision regarding the Rolex Deepsea James Cameron. But it had to be. ☺️ First, one of my principles is to screen my watch collection from time to time and only really keep the pieces that I wear regularly. I ... 

Two had to go.

 
 By: MTR : September 6th, 2023-15:52
1. Rolex Deepsea James Cameron 126660 (the newer version with the modern movement, wider bracelet etc) 2. Moser Henry Double Hairspring. Two beautiful watches. But I have no regrets either. ☺️ ...  

So sorry. 🙏

 
 By: MTR : September 6th, 2023-18:32
But I had to prioritize. Having too much property bothers me. Finally my DD 40 fits me better and is a lot more comfortable too, and when I'm on the water I prefer BP or Panerai.

I totally understand, though.

 
 By: amanico : September 6th, 2023-21:12

I think I will get a good Rolex

 
 By: MTR : September 7th, 2023-13:09
again, if I want/need it. Regarding the Moser I still own - for me - one of the most beautiful versions (Purity PC) that I have always preferred to my Moser Henry. Cheers Thomas ...  

Thank you so much, nasseriq!

Looks great!

 
 By: TeutonicCarFan : September 4th, 2023-23:50
Top class.. Love the high horology with some casual vibes. Looks good. Also, now you are eligible for a rolex! I kid😂

LOLLLL

 
 By: MTR : September 5th, 2023-14:16
OMG. You will laugh. Or not. But I have to confess I ordered a Rolex as a present for a friend in July (after the purchase of this GP), and the delivery time took just 4 weeks…. 🫢 And I have to say, after many years of rather conservative clothing, I now ...  

This is a good one!

Happy for you Thomas ☀️

Wear it in good health always

Wow! Such a nice comment.

 
 By: MTR : September 6th, 2023-06:27
Thank you so much for that, my friend! And it's always a challenge to capture this miracle in one picture with all the reflections. Another try yesterday early evening…  Cheers Thomas ...  

A very special one…

 
 By: MTR : September 6th, 2023-06:22
I definitely need to try more rear shots. Thanks a lot, dear Ecchi! ...  

Wow! 🤩

Watch this video

Tim Mosso talks about the amazing finishing of GP haute horology Hope you enjoy the video Thomas. ...  

Thank you, you made me very happy! 🙏☺️

 
 By: MTR : September 17th, 2023-15:41
I watched the whole video. Not just starting at 37:27. GP seems to be the epitome of finishing. It “takes no winners and embarrasses it’s competition with its 9300 movement.“ According the wheel finishing: Tim Mosso apparently “had never had the chance to... 

I’m glad to have found the video.

 
 By: SingaporeMarc : September 18th, 2023-09:34
Of course, GP high Horology and GP “normal” are two different departments and price points.

Of course.

 
 By: MTR : September 18th, 2023-10:12
But according to Tim Mosso GP high horology regarding i.e. their 9300 movement seems to be higher than high horology of others well known and appreciated high horology brands. ☺️

Agree 100%

 
 By: SingaporeMarc : September 18th, 2023-15:59
9300 is High Horology and blows some of the other brands out of the water … and Tim knows what’s he’s talking about.

The interesting thing:

 
 By: MTR : September 18th, 2023-20:12
as far as I remember Tim said „all of the other brands“ and not „some“. That's quite an announcement...

Maybe a figure of speech

 
 By: SingaporeMarc : September 19th, 2023-09:43
You can ask Tim. He is quite active here …

Aaaaah, ok! ☺️

 
 By: MTR : September 20th, 2023-09:47
What alias is Tim on WPS?

I’ll send it to you via PM 👍🏻

 
 By: SingaporeMarc : September 20th, 2023-10:16

Present

 
 By: Tim_M : September 25th, 2023-02:46
The 9300 work is excellent - among the best I've ever seen. If I said better than "all," then that's my mistake. It's at Greubel/ Ferdinand Berthoud levels and better than **almost** all others. Best, Tim

Thanks Tim ☀️

 
 By: SingaporeMarc : September 25th, 2023-06:29
You are correct that you did not say “all”. I didn’t think you said “all” either. You just said that it is the best you have seen under this magnification etc. ☺️ ...  

Ok. Thanks for the clarification.

 
 By: MTR : September 25th, 2023-09:00
I am still happy with this. ☺️🙏

Spectacular pictures

 
 By: penfriend : September 5th, 2023-15:51
I am very glad for you that you are so deep in love with that gorgeous watch! I guess someday I have to come to Vienna to admire it in person 🥂

Yes, please do that.

 
 By: MTR : September 5th, 2023-20:04
Feel welcome. And thank you for your nice comment. All the best Thomas
