Hello Mo....
Hi Mo,
I saw this and fancied joining in so here's my current fantasy wish list:
1. A nice vintage ultra thin dress watch and the names that spring to mind are Piaget and Vacheron.
2. I still love Speedmasters after all these years and the dream would be a 2915 with metal base 500 bezel and arrow hands - awesome!
3. I have always liked the Lange Datograph Perpetual with the grey dial - German watch engineering at it's finest.
4. Would an MB&F HM1 Ti be too much to dream of? His first and best to these eyes.
5. An Audemars Royal Oak 5402 'A' Series with logo at 6 (I could then swap my C series for something else!). It's thin, sporty, a beautiful and classic design with a wonderful movement. Glad to see the Jubilee on your list.
There are others, too many to mention, so I'll keep them on the 'B' list for now. These spring to mind as the top five on this years list. Strangely enough no new releases from this year (I've got the one of those I was after).
Fantasy and speculation but harmless and fun.
Oh well - lottery draw tonight.
Very best wishes.
Vernon.

Without talking about DeBethune, the VC chrono QP is marvelous Mo ! Funny as we all have our wishlists, evolving month after month. Here is mine as of today (tomorrow is another day :p ). The first one, above all, the DB 25 Silver dial (even if I love the...

More 2012 focus list than Xmas wishes
Great idea, Moc! It is great to broaden one's horizon and get inspired by others aspirations and dreams. Her is my list for the year to come: Vintage first: Omega ref. ck2077 is top of the list Omega ref. ck 2042 in second place but more likely Longines' ...
Anyone as I can see would settle for a Lange..
not a bad way to end the year at all..... Thank you Mo
mine
patek 5270 patek 5131 de bethune DB15 Journe CS but these will stay dreams ... But I'll be happy wit a Panerai 372 / 382
Here is mine!
Urwerk 202S: I loved each second when I wore it! Greubel Forsey GMT: De Bethune DB28: HW Z6: That's all! Fx...
That is surprising FX.
Not a single classic looking watch!Well chosen if you ask me even though I prefer the regular version of the Z6.But I d be happy to settle for the black too. DB28 is hot! Mo
I really need to score one/some of these over the next calender year
All images taken off the WWW. there is one brand that is particularly represented!! No Independents or AHCI, first time in three years. No Pateks, first time in five years. my wishlist also reflect certain views I have about marketing fluff and over prici...
Glad you like the little game Horo
I am still in love with the 1921 as well,but there is a little but.... As far as Lange,well as you can see its almost in everybodys list...talking about quality... I think we should start arranging that trip in Glasshutte......no? Best my friend Mo
I really like optionc's way of categorising the wish list..
So here's mine (sorry to copy the format): Wish (likely to come true): Somewhat Attainable (may come true only under the most optimistic conditions): Dream (not just for 2012, but for the forseeable future, sorry I don't have an Aspirational category hehe...
Again Lange and De Bethune in the list..
I am very happy to see that....with a pinch of Kari which is always good to admire. Hope your Horodreams will come true. MO
that's my watch!
Mostel, As the owner of the actual watch in the pic. I can tell you first hand, it is worth every penny. I've always dreamed of buying a Roger Smith Series 2w/ the dial as I was unaware of the open dial option. But once I saw the 40mm open dial w/ the 'im...
Aghk!! Option and Moc
WOW!! I wish we lived close in this world so that we could get together. I do not know of anyone else who owns this watch yet, though I would assume a handful of lucky collectors do. That watch has not stopped pulling on my heartstrings since I saw it for...
Well only passion makes you speak...
go for it my friend and I will rejoice with you ....good luck! Mo
You are well focused Mostel...
difficult not to be in front of this marvel.....fascinating! Mo
Do you like Lange Tony?
Thats a selection!I think that reaching that selection will make any watch nut contempt for a few years....Mutual love for ALAS and for that Luminous beast! Take care Mo
From the first series of wishlists..
we can gather that amongst a likeminded group of people the direction is quite clear,Lange is the king in watches to aspire to for many of us,amongst independents De Bethune on top...... Who said quality doesnt work? Behing smoking mirrors there are true ...
Interesting dear Mo
Two of your runners up are on my top 5 list VC for me UN for my brother + PAM 249 (Picture Credit Bill) + DB Digitale (Pictures Credit Nicolas) + I just can't remove this one from my mind .. I know I'm silly + if we are aloud to dream Sincerely Damjan P.S...

Wish list for Santa ...
is short this year. 2011 was a strange year with broken camera, broken washing machine ... insolvent customers and lots of up & downs ... So all I need after that crazy year is a good read and some extra time: Of course there are more dreams in my head .....
All is going to be fine soon Oliver..
I really wish you that....its time to start dreaming again...I am so glad we share the same feling for ALS and especially De Bethune. Great minds think alike..... All the best . Mo
