Horological Meandering

Hello Purists, I haven't done a census of the collection for about 15 months. The last time, people sent me lots of private messages, telling me how happy they were that I showed all my watches arrayed on the table. This enabled them to point to me as the...  

If my wife saw these pictures, she would forbid me from ever consulting PuristSPros again. Figuring thaty I might catch the bug (but that is already the case). The problem with your pictures is that all the watches come out kind of small and I have a hard... 

Thanks! I pondered doing a larger version of each shot, but that irritates people when the photos bump into/over/under the ads on the right side of the screen. Anyway, it was the experience. My fingertips hurt just typing now! Cazalea

That is why I appreciate you so much. You're nut, totally, completely, absolutely nut. Impressive get yourself together, my friend. Best, Nicolas.

Now you should post a list with a full descreption on every single watch ... . Filip

Hats off......90mins well spent though!! Best, Horo

I had make the post, convert the movie up to YouTube, clean all the glass in the cabinet, pick up all the watches and put them away. Then take the dead ones down to the watch factory and get new batteries. I have managed to use up the whole day! Yay! Ther...  

Thumbs up....a most worthwhile day spent. Very impressive mate. Inspired by you, I am determined to do something similar! And "document" the process. Best, Horo

A fine project and a fine narrative (and certainly many fine watches).

1. I AM NOrMaL! 2. Over here we the SOTC in a more deliberate and tedious manner compare to other watch fora. cen@jkt

Who's there? U.da U.da who? Uda man!!! You the man Cazalea! Great post. And a lego watch. Fantastic. Regards, Richard.

of 30 minutes per watch must be conducted now that you have everything wound and running. Wow! Amazing collection. I have to say you had me with the Muhle Glashutte Marine chronometer. If you just showed that, it would be enough for me. Congrats! (hope yo... 

I opened it to take a watch out, and I was stunned by the volume with nearly 100 watches (including the pocket watches) tic-tocking away. I'd never had them all running, so didn't recognize the fantastic sound that would come echoing off the glass and mir... 

Fantastic post, truly amazing - thanks for taking the time and sharing with us all. I can't wait to show my wife, just to show her that I am not the craziest (it won't help change her opinion, but then she is probably right anyway. Any chance that we can ... 

I put the camera into the watch cabinet, closed the door - took a video, then discarded it. Tried again about 5 more times and finally we have a keeper. They were all vying to get their faces and backsides into the film! There is a stop-watch still runnin... 

In a way it reminded me of a crazy GTG we had last night but instead of one person doing it all, there were about a dozen doing the arranging & rearranging for the table shot etc. I remember showing your previous collection pics. to my wife. She doesn... 

but what an enjoyable way to spend 90 minutes for a WIS.. LOVE it! amazing collection...and I too have to keep the wife away from this thread...

I don't have that many but it has given me an idea when the clocks go forward to set all mine....at the moment the battery ones are half winter time and half summer time and as they don't all keep perfect time they could all do with resetting. Thanks for ... 

I really enjoyed tht post and also the ticking and tocking on the video soundtrack - a true treat! Clearly you go it bad - I find that inspirational. thanks Andreas

...and see if they get above the roof of your house! or lay them across the wall say and take a pic, that'll be interesting. Saw a few Grand Seikos, IWC, Breitling, an ORIS, Jacqut Droz, and many more. Nice.

Thank you for this great display of watches! You have a great collection! Thank you for sharing with us! Best Blomman

It looks like you really enjoyed that, I can totally understand why How are you enjoying the Ochs&J - I'm really interested in them Thanks for posting Best Christian

I am always entertained by your SOTC posts! It's such a treat to see all those watches at once! Cheers, Daos

. . . if Cazalea's effort is rewarded by a stint at the Masthead position? . . .

No message body

of course i know you are proud of it. one for every occasion, every day of the week for about 4 months. as Horo said, time well spent. best Graham

... only if I had such a wide floor, so many watches to check periodically, and understanding (or not) wife, on a rainy Sunday. Boy, I am with you. Where is the Hublot? Just kidding Nice job! Ken

Great post. Love the clock. How about some close ups of the groups Zoloft has some effect for OCD.
