3rd place would go to my Chronoswiss Regulateur 24. It’s a simple hand-wound piece using a caliber from the 1950s and is symbolic of 25 years of Gerd Lang’s work. It is incredibly easy to read and probably gets more comments than any other watch that I own by non-WIS who notice it.



2nd place would go to the Jaquet Droz Hommage Londres 1774 Chonograph GMT that I most recently picked up. There just aren’t many manual wind, no date chronographs with lume. It is also nice to have a 13 mm chronograph that is sized to fit beneath ones sleeve



1st place this year goes to my Blancpain Leman Ultra Slim Grande Date. It is just a classic sports watch that is comfortably sized with a date sized for us with failing eye sight. It is flawlessly finished.It is subtle, the more you look at it, the more you see the detail.
