Congratulations!

 
 By: Wooster : October 17th, 2008-05:03
Beautiful watch with an equally imposing bracelet. I am myself hunting lately for what I think to be two unver-valued vintage gems - eventually I'll find the Kontiki and the Polerouter I'm looking for...

agree Both the UG and the Kontiki are classic

 
 By: Bill Sohne : October 17th, 2008-08:39
Hi Wooster My focus is really on vintage timepieces. i totally agree with on the Polrouter and the Kontikis. here is a Polrouter Super and a Polrouter Sub... and a bumper polrouter chronometre !! Thanks Have a great weekend! Bill Sohne...  

Thanks a lot, Bill for these UG pics

 
 By: amanico : October 17th, 2008-11:50

One of my favorite versions of the Reverso, Nicolas . . .

 
 By: Dr No : October 17th, 2008-00:26
. . . perfect in platinum with a grey dial, although I believe there's a slightly simpler version, too. The Reverso has perfect dimensionality and proportions . . . cordially, Art

You mean this one, Art?

 
 By: amanico : October 17th, 2008-01:17
Reverso platinum RDM, in the GT case, while the 70eme is XGT... Very nice, too! Best. Nicolas...

How about the Equation of Time? Added bonus is that the EOT is getting close to its max (right now it's at about -15 min). Sorry for the image quality, but it's a difficult piece to photograph -- lots of shiny surfaces both flat and curved. HAGWE, Gary G...  

Finally, an EOT!
