Late but ( not).. Too late ?.. Had been reluctant to get/try it until now...
Damjan, my friend - where and how to order/ get it?
Vaguely remember once playing with it, together
with a common "pain au chocolat" and a ristretto coffee
at one of our last GTGs...

Looks like a fun watch for hanging out & else !
Kind greetings for a perfect Sunday !
Best, hs
PS: of course you may PM me
but as it's a PuristS Proinitiative, guess my Q
is ok here..
PPro ABR #156 finally on my wrist!
Thank you everyone for your kind words when I did my last post on how much I missed the ABR as I was on a family vacation when it was delivered to my home. And sorry for one more post on this watch. I just cannot help but to share my joy of having this sp...
Thanks Nicolas. the red strap...
Is harder to match clothes but I love the red strap and black case combination. I was a little worried it may smell on my wrist after a day of wear in the hot and humid weather here but hey... after 6 hours of wear in non air conditioned places, no smell ...
Thanks Luis! I believe a few more are still available
Wanna join us? This is truly a community watch! Very interesting too. Already some people were asking me about the 4 quadrant seconds hands. We can have another bro watch, together with our Montblanc Worldtime :) Thanks as always for your kind words. Chee...
Well, I have to save up my
"allocation" of opportunities for the watches that I REALLY like. Otherwise I will be buying too much, then my wife will stop me.
Wise indeed my friend
I will have to save up too else my wife will be upset! Unless I buy her the pp 24 which you got for your lovely wife on Valentine's Day. :) Well I have to save up for that too! Cheers Robin
Hey congratulations
I feel more excitement in your posts on the ABR than your earlier stunning Villeret acquisition! I am guessing number 156, that there a very few pieces left ! I have just bought the first watch of the year, a GP, so my budget is spent (actually I shouldn'...
Level of excitement. ...
Is indeed very high on this one! It's like a fun watch so I am naturally very excited. If you like it, there should be some more pieces left still (probably not many left as I am already at 156 out of 178). It's really not too pricey so hope you can get o...
Now we are talking :)
Once more and enjoy Yours D P.S. Do you plan to make Anthony T hard test of it? ;) :)
Yes now we're talking! :)
Thank you my friend. Anthony hard test? Meaning? Test the watch or test Anthony? :) Cheers Robin
Well not
sure how will Anthony pass that one but I know how watch passed amp;fi=1006&pi=3730056&ti=596796&msid=&s= :) D
I get it now!
I don't have the heart to do this test on my ABR but it gives me alot of assurance on the robustness of the PVD coating. Thanks for sharing this test with me. Cheers Robin PS: Anthony looks quite hunky from some photos so maybe he can pass this ABR test t...

You can pm Anthony Tsai and order it
Sorry for hijacking Damjan here. Am excited another fellow Purist is considering this PPro ABR. Like you, I am late to the party but so long as Anthony still has a few pieces left, it's never too late. One day I hope all 178 of us can show our watches tog...
Thx for kind note.. Yes, have been reluctant until now.. But your post..
.. sort of resurrected my interest. - 2 Qs be allowed: 1/ when was The Series in fact issued ? 2/ is the prize listed somewhere? ( if not, Anthony will let me know, I trust) - I expect they ship out of CA/ USA Thank you again for chipping in & Have a good...
We have some private " courriers ", here, my friend. ;)
Private and top class... Don't worry about shipping. Best, Nicolas
Shortest and best way
Is ti just OM Anthony Tsai our general manager and in 2 weeks time it is on your wrist Really looking forward Best regards Damjan
Loose seconds hands
It is a very comfortable watch. It does look great on your wrist. Sadly, mine developed a problem of the seconds hand getting stuck at 8 following a couple of months of no use. I assume the seconds hand has tilted slightly, just enough for it to get stuck...
Oh no sorry to hear about this
Thanks for your kind comments on my watch. I am sorry to hear about yours. Is it still under warranty? I am sure St Gallen will address this nonetheless. Let me know if you need some help on yours. Anthony or MTF will be able to help too I am sure Cheers ...
I love colorful straps for my fun watch
Red is great! Maybe I will get a blue too next time. I am sure the ABR looks more classy with your black leather strap. This watch can dress up or down depending on straps indeed Enjoy your ABR! Cheers Robin
Cngrats!!!!!
Love the red strap! Get the "new type" straps while you are still ecstatic :-) Ken
Thanks Ken!
I feel like wearing out my red strap first before getting a new one. Probably in Sep I will get a new strap when I visit HK again. The service center is there. Cheers Robin
Congrats!
Have you ordered the new strap? It is more comfortable and faster to wear. Kong
Faster to wear too?
I didnt know that Kong. I should have tried MTF's during our last gtg. I find the current strap comfy too but slow to wear indeed. I know Stefan is getting the new strap so will check with him next time. Thanks Kong! Cheers Robin
Test out ...
Stefan, when he receives his. Maybe not that fast, you've to try it out :-) Kong
