As you well know, these are two of our creations, made and issued to celebrate the 15th and 20th Anniversary of our website. We started from an existing watch and tried to " spice it " a bit, in order to make it according to our taste and the taste of our...
My suggestion : UN with a +- 10k price range. Here I would take a slightly personalized version of the Marine Torpilleur ....of course without the date !!! Best, Gerard
I like the understated approach, without excessive words on the dial. And "Cronometro" on the Zenith was pure genius. I missed out on the Hentschel (too bad for me) but hope to participate in the 25th anniversary. I'd love to see if Parmigiani would partn...
A little bit from left field here , but would a Carl F Bucherer work for the sub 10k version ? They make a mean Flyback Chrono in their Manero line ...
With the Hentschel i was too late. That is because i am a rookie, so i think i stay a rookie. HM1130 A Schild reincarnation, chronometer, a movement to get crazy stunning loving on. While i like to collect anniversaries, i stay for this time tuned. While ...
I will give a suggestion for the affordable watch. The 30k i can buy, but i have also a young BMW in mind, that is more important. Ok, to the point. I spoke about an IWC. It can be some from the pilot range, but portugueser, fino, aquatimer, can be a cand...
I believe the first step would be finding a brand amenable to this... I think we all know some brands that have done editions recently... cartier, montblanc, blancpain, un, pf and some others. Personally I'd love a pf Tonda, however, the no date sand colo...
The h moser streamliner small seconds with blue enamel dial, new small case at 38mm and beautiful dial. Maybe a favorite in the show for me? I imagine using different hands, maybe lightly engraved h moser on dial, cool maybe dune colored silvery dial with...
If so, Blancpain is about to revive the Leman line and they revive the 1186, perhaps the rattrapante, like this but with black hands, in 36 or 38 mm and they choose to launch with us! ...
Thanks for the article and sharing the pics. I think having the 10k and 30k splits is a great idea as it allows scope for some great watches and do what this site is good at i.e. embrace a common passion for watches across a broad range. I like the idea e...
As for the higher budget options I think chronos and/or splits from Montblanc-Minerva are hard to beat. But I would try to seriously redesign the dial and hands, the standard ones are not for everyone.
I think they offer great bang for the buck in terms of quality and design. work with a FXD or Black Bay. Use their chronometre movement MT 5602 to stick to the chronometer family. The design should be ultra reduced in terms of writing and colors. just ver...
Not an easy one i guess, although tudor is actually famous for collaborations or special editions: Just to name a few: STATE OF QATAR, GOOGLE, ROWING BLAZERS, MARINE NATIONALE, ROYALTY PROTECTION, COMMANDEMENT DES OPERATION SPECIALES (COS), WATCHES OF SWI...
I don’t think it’s impossible since they have made plenty of small runs. Of course there are many easier brands to ask. Tudor would be easier to sell than most other brands as the price / quality factor is one of the most attractive in the industry.
But, and it’s a big one, didn’t we (Nicolas) try this already with Tudor and it was a no go? It amazes me that they would turn down a community like this when they’ve done numerous other projects.
. . . Omega references with black dials that would be more appropriate for homage. For example, the Dirty Dozen. [watch credit: Roger G / photo credit: Dr No] There's even a grey dial reference that would be consummately compelling. [photo and(?) watch cr...
Now, there's a number of excellent options at those price points.... A unique Speedmaster would be wonderful, and something I'd happily get into for around $10K, or on the 'higher end', I would most love to see something from JLC (yes, Reverso), or Vacher...
A bit different from the actual collection and I’m probably in !! Tell them how many tradition we have here and you can convince them. Talking about the tradition…. How about a steel tradition ….. YES !!
Good luck narrowing it down... My observation at this point would be to open up the order book at the appropriate time, that is, for example not limit the piece to 25. I think that a small number does not allow for enough subscriptions using a first come ...
Singapore watch club did a collaboration with vacheron where they overhauled some vintage chronos and added a custom engraved bridge. Interesting idea. singaporewatchclub.com
