Hi Elliot,
I haven’t seen one up close like that (the statue not the watch). I did want to see the ABR being worn and used in the pictures, so yours is perfect. Oscar makes quite a good night watch stand as well. Seriously though, being unlikely to receive one myself, what are they made from, how heavy are they and is that real gold (18K)!

The PPro ABR roll call
Hi fellow Purists, It has been more than six months since the first ABR Purist Edition watches were delivered. Many owners’ watches have been posted in various locations since then, but I thought it was about time we had a pictorial thread that brought al...
come in #99, your time is up!
with a non standard mesh bracelet on it i suppose this is as highly modified as things will get. best Graham...
Thats a nice bracelet....
Hi there I like that bracelet alot...didnt have time to look up for it yet. Meanwhile here is mine... Regards...
pm me if you want seller. its very local to you i think.
i'll also explain the technique to fitting it. best Graham
Hey Graham!
I'm glad to be right next to your number! Too bad I can't make it to London this year....
My #99 was specially chosen...
My #99 was specially chosen to match my Freak and hopefully the next one will be #99. its a bit pathetic, but i'd quite like all ltd ed pieces to be 99. no real reason, but it looks good when you line them up. best Graham
So that's the reason.
It does look good indeed. Great pair of 99s. Looking forward to your next #99 watch!
017 Checking in
It just hit me that my work desk have been surrounded by a certain color combination. Now , I am no longer surprise why my PP ABR is fitted with a red strap Cheers Noel...
Here's mine....
Hope everyone is enjoying theirs as much as I have with mine. My PPro ABR has been used and abused but held up without any problems. The PVD is still looking new. Lume shot: -MW...
No favourite shot but ABR is one of my favourite watches
I just wore it during a business trip in Indonesia 2 days ago and it attracted a lot of attention due to its "four hands" appearance. Regards Ling
Nos. 58 and 61 here...
Started life together... But while #61 (like its great namesake Bordeaux vintage) has been 'laid down', #58 has been getting around and having a whole lot of fun - These were a great idea and a lot of fun. Thanks again to the design team. Can't wait for t...
PPro ABR #8 checking in! **video inside**
Keeps on ticking despite all the abuse I give it! Cheers, Anthony Ultimate PPro ABR shock test - see video below...
Great photo, Mike!
Nice to see the PPro ABR in its natural environment! Cool action shot with the running water! Cheers, Daos
Cool!
BLOOD! A gross (but fun) post! Somehow Andrew I bet you knew I'd love a post like that. I particularly like the shot with the scalpels post surgery. I am currently playing a game on the Wii called Trauma Center (or something similar) that lets me use the ...
Andrew, I'll come up with some more pics if you like.
I'm in the operating theater on Thursday! Best, Mike
The more the better, Mike …
I love all photos of watches being used for their intended purpose and the ABR is particularly unusual in that regard. Don’t forget to ask permission from the patient! A Ps. although quartz, these washable silicone rubber fob watches are popular amo...
Really there is a game like that! Cool...
you get use to the sight of blood very easily...its the smell of surgery that gets most people. Then there is trauma surgery which is a whole world unto itself. Women make better surgeons...there is a scientific paper on this Cheers, MIke
Great idea, thanks for the roll call!
#00 (first test production piece) cking in. Tied up without easy access to pics and links (PDA only) sorry no pics. I figure cking in without pic is better than waiting until I can post pics and missing the thread! ;-) Cheers, TM
This is great, Don!
A nice shot of your own handiwork alongside the PPro ABR! Hope all is well! Cheers, Daos
Far from mother ship, no. 6 checking in.
Am far from watch but figured I'd check in and say hi to all. Mitch
Fingerprint
Great image, Steve; thanks! With the random stray strands each dial must be unique – a sort of fingerprint for each owner. Andrew
PuristSPro ABR,... here's mine
Another ABR checking in: And my ABR next to the prototype: Regards, ED-209 This message has been edited by ED209 on 2009-05-11 20:10:36...

my dear Andrew, a nice DayTime watch stand, but not at Night
fyi, 12+ pounds of 18k (real) gold plated Lead. yes, lead. heavy but very nice to hold. glad you enjoyed the picture. cheers, elliot
I had no idea …
… they were that heavy. No wonder the happy recipients clutch them so firmly! Lots of memories rolled up in that I imagine, Elliot. Thanks for the insight. Andrew
#81 with new son
I was wearing my ABR when my son arrived a bit early. He's home now and doing absolutely wonderfully! The ABR glows nicely during 2am and 5am feedings Regards, Ira...
Enjoy both …
Hello Ira, Great to see your son and that watch. Meticulous hand hygiene is critical in an area like the neonatal / newborn care unit. The perfect environment for a disinfectable watch! [Even though many units now have a ‘naked below the elbow’...
Growing baby
Hi all, I'd thought I'd show you how well my son has been growing along with my other (but much less precious) baby, a drool-proof Rolex GMT-Master II C. Regards, Ira Drool-proof watch...
Nice!
Hope you and the family are well. HAGWE! -MW This message has been edited by DRMW on 2009-05-15 15:22:54
Seven months down…
Of course we want to see a series of wrist shots as he grows into his 42mm PPro ABR. Congratulations again! Fun times. Andrew
