Here one of my biggest watches that I own. Model Invicta Subaqua Noma III. limited edition #1818 out of 2400 Swiss Made, with Ronda 5040F master calender...
if that is the case then i've just read something about them which claims there were only 20 of them made as part of the introduction of the chrono-matic. that makes it a very very nice piece. best Graham
That is a crispy one, Eithan. I had an heart attack when I read your title, as I thouth it was a Vintage Diving time only... You know, this little thing which drives me crazy. Best, Nicolas
I own Nicolas. Yes the time only is beautiful and considerably rarer than this. Graham, yes this is the 2105. I've read this idea that there were only twenty made, while I would like to believe it, I have seen no evidence to support it. Having said that i...
i had a standard chrono-matic from 69 until a few years ago and had never seen one like yours, but only last night saw another one on the bay. the story behind all the NOS ones popping up is that when Breitling were changing hands one of the staff or mana...
I know what you mean about character Graham, logically anyway, it's why in a funny way I dislike NOS watches. The heart says wear it but the head says - just you try and replace that crystal. LOL. Benno Richter in his 1995 book on Breitling shows two of t...
Nice watch Graham, great to have it with the original bracelet. This is the same case as mine, they all used the basic same case, so it would have been 48mm. Weirdly this watch doesn't wear as huge as it seems, I've got pipe cleaner wrists but never feel ...
Damn, you were right! It must be the typical crisis of the 40 years old people... In this case, what should I have to say, as I'm much older than you! Best, Filip, and if you feel depressed, come in Paris, we'l have a funny depression together. Nicolas.
here's my Biggest & the Meanest ! but i LOVE it. a Flieger made by LACO . it's Diameter is 55mm .exact Replica of the 1940ies B-Uhr. a Total Production of 50 Pieces. mine is # 26 pictured here on my Wrist... yes it is HUGE ,unwearable and i don't feel com...
ah Tony, i used to have the original Laco B-Uhr, but never wore it on my wrist as it still had the original strap which was made for over the jacket wearing. its a big mother of a watch as is Bill's russian divers piece (yes, i had one of those as well). ...
it is Pointless to have a Watch sitting in a Safe Hibernating ,even if it were a highly Collectible Piece. i believe a Watch SHOULD BE WORN . the fact that i don't wear it but "at least" and it's plenty good enough for me to ENJOY looking at that Beautifu...
Tony, i collected military pieces before the big boom so when i sold them en masse i did quite well, but not as well as if i sold them seperately now. i'm not sure i want someones body part, but we all need something to barter with best Graham...
..and not too large for your wrist, and awesome looking too.. i think you will get many stares from the crowd not because the watch is too large for you to carry on your wrist but because its an awesome B-uhr watch.. Instead of you giving it 200 stares a ...
but I think you should wear it Tony. It looks great in that pic andwith a tee shirt and leather jacket would be fine for weekend wear in my opinion. Even as you say you have slim wrists, it is big for a reason with cool history behind it, so if people rem...
which was sold recently as I feel that it's simply too big for my relatively slim wrists ... Now my biggest watches are my Blancpain FF and Pam 190 (both abt 45mm) ......
big enough to draw the ire of some smaller wristed commentators on other forums. Here is a Q&D from the day I bought it: and on the 24mm OEM Omega Mesh: and in the wild, me and my son at a local cafe, a lazy Saturday afternoon: I have a 7.5 inch wrist...
Oh Nick, that Blancpain is sensational. It looks great on the leather Nato too. Your making me crave vintage divers again and that is a dangerous craving to have. Regards, Zac
Eterna KonTiki Concept Diver: 46mm Seiko SBDX011 Marine Master 1000M "Emperor": 52mm It's worth noting that they don't wear as large on my 7.5" wrist as they appear in the photos (you can thank the angle and my poor picture-taking skills for the odd persp...
