Vintage Omega Seamaster
I have been wearing this Seamaster everyday since last weekend. In the absence of a winder, the automatic, non-quick-date set Cal. 562 movement calls out for me to strap it on for at least part of each day which, I promise you, is not a hard thing to have...
Delectable, Andrew . . .
. . . I've been wearing G O's the last several days, so I have an urge for the Omega again . . . . . . warm regards, Art...

The nicest sonnerie chime I ever heard ....
I recall an opportunity when I attended a watch presentation with you. Christophe Claret, widely known for his repeaters and chiming watches, was there as well. Shortly before, the proud CEO of the brand had stuffed his new repeater deep into your ear, so...
Helsinki-Syndrome ...
After I was able to liberate myself from the kidnapping by my Breitling (I reported), the sympathy, developed and deepened during the time of captivity, simply does not let me go. However, I now wear the SupoerOcean on a leather strap with a security tang...

. . . would you mind posting a few photos and a brief commentary one day on this forum, and ask all Purists with a Zenith El Primero to join in? I've long been a fan of vintage El Primeros, and would love to see a gallery of them . . . cordially, Art
Friday equals...
...business; tension; anticipation; relief; satisfaction; FPJ - Have a well-earned break - tell them pplater said you could have a couple of days off for yourself (he's the guy asking for the winelist again...). Cheers, pplater....

...and if it was anything like the same vintage as the watch, you had better not tell your wife/creditors/bank manager!! Bravo! Cheers, pplater.
PP fits my wrist today .....

Envy is so unbecoming, JB . . .
. . . but I can't help myself whenever this sublime Dornblüth makes an appearance . . . truly, my only regret in seven years of collecting is in not having pulled the trigger on an 04.0 when I had the opportunity . . . most cordially, Art
