Horological Meandering

For want of something better to do in this sunny Sunday afternoon, I played around with the dial faces of some of my favorite timepieces under natural sunlight. Hope you enjoy these pics... Sam...  

Many of them are on my wish list! Mech.

is our pleasure You have some really beauties in your collection. Congrats. Oliver

Simply magical... I especially like that untranslatable effect that the non-reflective coating gives to watches... THanks for sharing- and enjoy your Sunday in this amazing company you have! S

Thanks for sharing. I particularly liked the Observatoire, I've never seen that dial before... what color is it exactly? is that a special order? Could you elaborate? thx. Jon (Z3)

It's a white gold, bronze dial. Yes, I was offered the choice of dial, color of the three straps and index (Arabic vs Roman). Regards, Sam

Stunning, Definitely different from all the Observatoires that I have seen. thanks for sharing. Jon

I like most of your collection. Congrats! Ken

Your choice pieces reflect a diverse preference. I agree with most of your choices. Very nice. thanks for sharing, and enjoy.

What a very beautiful collection.

I´ve enjoyed a lot your awesome collection. Really well estructurated collection. And your pics are great. Really thanks for sharing all those marvels with us, Sam. For me, a vintage fan, these kind of modern watches all together are the best example... 

Working with daylight is ideal. Most of my close shots are made on my balcony with a grey sky. GEO

Patek, Lange, Journe... I really appreciate it ! Please have other lazy sundays, I enjoyed your pics ! Fr.Xavier

enjoy it.... Cheers

Two that stuck out for me,apart from the usual suspects are the Parmigiani Tourbi(fantastic catch) and the VC Chronometre Royal with the red 12 - just delightful. fernando

So many nice watches, you must have a heck of a time choosing what to wear. The Dato perpetual is my favorite! Tony

Particularly like the VC's Could you also tell me something about this, possibly a thread with more pictures?
