Horological Meandering

Dear friends It is first day of month....first day of May...the Labour Day but here on WPS there is no stopping we give you best of the best 24/7 ...365 days a year. Today special treat another POTM...this time So let's enjoy 1. Please introduce yourself!...  

Always nice finding out stuff about our fellow Purists

know more about you. I hope one day the watch of your design will be a reality.

Cheers, HSTE

It was great to learn more about fellow PuristS. The black AP looks very powerful, and you have a very nice collection of vintage watches. I will now read your post about Karl L. Cheers, Gordon

....with like-minded personalities. Cheers, HSTE

... And I like your classification of the companies into those who respect their vintage heritage (and vintage owners) vs those who do not. I could not agree more, bravo! Ps. That 5402 is super cool too

....through the modern world of the Richemonds and LVMH's of this world. And even authorized watchmakers are being cut off from getting replacement parts from them. But luckily the still are a few positive exceptions out there. Cheers, HSTE

wonderful introduction and very thoughtful input. You do have some stunning vintage watches across the board and it is always a true pleasure when you share them with us. I love the look of the black 5402 worn on top of the shirt, but I'm afraid you have ... 

...wore it over his cuffs. Cheers, HSTE ...  

You are a man with impeccable taste this is not new to me, but it is nice to read the rationale behind your collection and the reasons that brought you to this sélection. Many thanks to both Damjan and you for this insight . Mike

and wonderful to find out more about you HSTE! Thanks for taking the time and can't wait to find out who is next! Cheers Andrew

HSTE, a true pleasure to meet you both here and in real life! Looking forward to man more chances to meet, my friend. Best Blomman PS. In the 90s I was working for a company which also used the 4 character id system. I wonder if it was the same company...... 

Cheers, HSTE

I like that you have a disciplined collection, so to speak. As for brand ambassadors, I think the truth of the matter is, for most of us on PuristS and other more seasoned collectors elsewhere, we are greatly more charmed or "inspired" by other collectors... 

....from the other PuristS Cheers, HSTE

Best wishes Alkiro

Cheers, HSTE

I hope we'll have the opportunity to meet each other one day. If you come to Geneva, don't hesitate to send me a PM ;-) Best wishes Alkiro

for your interview.... There always is/was certain feeling of love/heft coming from you for each watch you are presenting on this forum. Your collection is definitely a very impressive one. I liked the Breitling story. Best Regards Edward

..... for various reasons but in the end I hunt them down just on intuition. I would not by "a hot watch" that I do not like or do not relate to in any way. Glad that this somehow seems to be coming Cheers, HSTE

As you know, I am learning about the vintage realm, and I applaud you for sharing your vast knowledge of this arena. I feel you are the vintage master of PuristSPro. I know you don't seek praise, but it is well deserved. Thanks for this unique glimpse int... 

.....as I am on "vintage" but in addition they cover the modern times too. Cheers, HSTE

There is so much to learn from fellow PuristS that it is a double pleasure to learn more about themselves. Either by meeting them or e.g. by PTOM. Thanks for opening the doors and for letting us know more about you. Really interesting reading! Beat, Marti...
