Horological Meandering

I'm not sure why, but my watches and I have never all been in the same place at the same time before and, for various reasons, they are today. I thought I should mark the occasion, before winding everything up and setting the calendars, by taking a pictur...  

I love the PVD movement on the Pam. Thanks for sharing!

with some true heavy hitters but your UN is winner in my book Sincerely D

The JLC Geographique sing very loud to me... Impressed. Bravo. Nicolas

Wonderful pieces and stories behind the acquisitions. I\'m curios that there is no Breguet or Vacheron? Surely there can temp you with something Thanks for sharing

A fair challenge. For Vacheron, I'd have taken the Les Historiques chrono (in platinum with salmon dial) over the Blancpain, but at the time I couldn't afford it. And a vacheron minute repeater (especially the skeleton in rose gold) would be lovely, but i... 

But a Breguet tourbillon would be delicious Happy hunting

Thank you for all these pics and explanations. Best wishes Alkiro

i love the way you have assembled your collection. Good luck in adding to it.

Thanks for sharing the stories. The central tourbillon H1 and the UN are Grail pieces for many, congrats for having both. Rgds Raymond

Awesome and thanks for sharing!

Really love your particular Reverso! Owning a Minute Repeater in a pocket watch has always made the most sense to me when you consider how relatively affordable they are in this form, and how the generous size allows for a more pronounced sound. Please le... 

Congrats and thanks for sharing!

Really appreciate how each and every one has reason for being there. Thanks for sharing! J

It's rare to read such a presentation, but most of all to meet a genuine collector. Starting from your Sinclair Harding (a clock i've never seen before), it's clear you knew what you bought. Some underrated pieces like the Villeret chrono or the AP perpet... 

Here is what the sonnerie sounds like - amazing to think it's over 120 years old... Turler G&PS chime

I really appreciated the show. The H1 is a phenomenal piece. Do you have some other pictures showing the variation in the way the dial looks that you mention? And great Astrolabium. Best Andreas

Hi, I'm afraid my phone camera isn't up to much so the differences may be hard to see. However, the H1 dark dial takes on the light that you throw at it. So in normal light conditions it looks like this, with a greyish tinge: In relatively dark light, it ...  

thanks for the photos, much appreciated! Best Andreas

The H1 is simply out out this world. Free servicing for the rest of your/ Haldimann`s life too

Love it - what a super collection with lots of diversity. Wear them all in good health

... The Ulysse Nardin Astrolabium is truly remarkable. Cheers! - Scott

What brands/complications do you want to add in the future? As far as I see F.P. Journe Sonnerie fits in perfectly. Also your acquisition of the Extreme Lab 2 shows that you are very deep into watches and that is truly amazing. Thanks for sharing your wat... 

Dear Boccanegra, greetings from Caracas, the arguments by which you have achieved your amazing watch collection are impeccable and logical in extent. It demands a strong will not to keep meandering away from clear focus when buying watches as many "opport... 

... Superb collection. Thanks for sharing. The JLC Extreme Lab is simply fantastic. Congrats on such an eclectic group of timepieces. - Scott
