I have an order of battle from 2020 to 2026. List of 26 watches. Now am done with 8. Hope to stop this year and resume next year.

. . . targets? Mine? Only one. An Omega ref 2410 . . . . . . with a grey dial. Very, very hard to find. Nearly impossible. Let's see yours. I'm expecting Nicolas to burn the internet with his picks. ;-) ...

. . . $40, depending on how you look at target ammo.

Aaah, Art... I am struggling to reduce my wish list...

A white Rail? I believe there's only two or three confirmed examples . . .

. . . in the wild. Could be wrong about this, but for sure there aren't many . . .

High on the list are the ALS Cabaret Moonphase, the UN Sonata, the JLC Duométre Calandrier Lunaire, the Parmigiani Kalpa Hebdomadaire (w/bracelet), and the Hermès L'Arceau l'Heure de la Lune. Cash flow is very lousy during plague time, so none of these ar... 

Twenty? Gosh, even when . . .

. . . your long-term fascination with alarms. When it comes to complications, there are only two that would be of personal utility: perpetual calendars and alarms. And now that I'm essentially retired, there's not really much call for either in my life. B... 

Strangely enough I don't use the alarm function that much!

But it's nice to know it's there. Most of the time if an alarm is set , it's for no particular reason other than I want to hear it at some point. I also like the different asthetic you get with an alarm, and it's interesting to see how differently it's be...
