As SOMEONE so eloquently put it: PuristS have to be a shining beacon of Hope....perpetually. So be it. Admittedly the quanty of pieces that turns up this year was not comparable to last year, intentionally so: home.watchprosite.com The PuristS spirit was ...

What made this year even more special was that it wasn't a leap year. Enjoyed very much the extra day that our pepetuals had to advance through. Until next year!

And we all know

So, one of us finally put his hands on the 5970P, which seems to be an unique piece? Impressive, indeed! A great selection of watches, too. Thanks for the share, my friend. Best, Nicolas

Gotcha Nicolas..... :)

That was a 5074J black dial minute repeater perpetual.... Unfortunately, I am not the owner Haven't seen the 5970P in the flesh yet. Sam

You're a bad boy, Sam

Since I saw a pic of this bloody Watch, I see it everywhere...Even in my dreams. Best, Nicolas

Would have loved to see the 5970P in flesh

 
 By: Jester : March 5th, 2009-05:11
but that 5074J was out of this world. Especially the sounding. Yet that lucky owner was still b*tching abt. the lack of legibility of the dial.

If he wants

for the time to put us together. Anna for the wonderful place and Daryl for the professional photos. I will start saving now to buy a new watch for Perpetually PurtstS 2010. ;-)

Hey, missed you guys this year!

Though I had a great time in LA (very nice to meet some new PuristS and see old friends, one of whom I am so glad to welcome back to the fold!) I also missed my friends in HK. Hey, Scribe, unlike all of the rest of us, you just keep looking (and dressing)... 

Yeah mate,

 
 By: Jester : March 5th, 2009-08:37
