Hi, I am a relatively new member (and of course a newbie in this arena) and made only few posts so far. This is a great site and have met many great people at the recent gathering in NY. Thank you, Bill and Z3 for great photo + report ! Now, I am getting ...

I've just bought this VC Evasion World Time, and found what I presume to be one photograph taken by your good self some years go. Do you happen to have any more for private perusal and entertainment? I hope you can help, Good Sir! ...  

I'll concur with Bill

Thanks for all of your valuable inputs. I realize that I MAY be too picky... I agree that GP is a good one - but is too big... UN seems fine - but too busy? I will think it over... About the date or no-date -- when you travel overseas, "date" on the watch... 

I have a Patek Travel-time in Platinum (5134P)

 
 By: johnsinger56 : February 13th, 2008-20:34
and I love it. It is simple, has a 37mm case and is very practical. I prefer gmt watches over world-timers as I find the dials on world-timers to be way too busy. Patek also has the watch in white gold if money is a concern. It is my favorite watch and I ... 

Nice watch you have there!

Hi John, Thanks. agree that it is simple and the "right" size for me. I don't know much about PP, but it seems that this model is one of the "less" discussed ones. I wonder why. Money is always a concern , but I prefer the dial of the Pt model. Don't you ... 

Ken, I was thinking of the Master Geographique JLC

 
 By: amanico : February 13th, 2008-23:28
The old model, in 38mm, I believe, I have to check the size, but this JLC is one of these watches that made me dream a long time. This is not a so difficult watch to use, when you travel. I think that you may try one. You have a winner with this JLC. Best... 

The JLC Grande Reverso GMT....

 
 By: tempusfugit : February 14th, 2008-14:17
has all that you want. It is available in steel (to keep the price reasonable) as well. If the Grande Reverso is too large, there was a limited edition in the smaller case size which does become available from time to time on the secondary market (it may ... 

Thanks !

Wow. I didn't know this model. Interesting. Yes, it may be a bit big and I may not like rectangular watches, but never really thought about it. I may convert easily. With other wonderful suggestions, I will play with the idea and enjoy pondering. Thank yo... 

Ken, Take a look at this....

You have choices

Ulysse Nardin big date GMT is the simplest, but most versatile in my opinion: there are endless variations of it and 100m water resistance makes it suitable for swimming. It is hard to beat perpetual/gmt combination though. My only complain about the reve...
