Wearing All My Watches Now; Part 9 of 10

Dec 28, 2018,09:45 AM
 

Boy, this seems like it's been going on for a long time. One good thing, besides falling in love with almost all of these watches again, is I have been able to clean the cabinet, polish the glass, etc.  The red cloth covers the remaining stock, as I don't want to spoil the surprise.




I'm staggering around in the near-dark, feeding the cat and getting my tea, while wearing SWISS watches:


#81 IWC Ingenier "Climate Action" which has a beefy stainless steel case and ceramic bezel, enclosing a beautiful textured dial. Matching strap is a bit of a pain though due to proprietary (expensive) fixing.



I need something a bit sleeker on my sleepy wrist! Does this give you a clue? Can you guess?



That's right, wearing the Léman case, we have a Blancpain - in fact a pair of them.



#82 The Chronometer 7002 by candlelight.   (NOTE: I did wear this briefly in an earlier post, but I deleted & swapped it for another watch that fit my theme better when I edited that post later)



#83 The 100-hour Aqua Lung with the rising sun



Now from a small, independent but famous maker, 

#84 Paul Gerber's P10 triple-rotor in titanium case with PuristS dial but on shark-skin strap rather than its salmon-skin strap.



#85 Ochs & Junior Settemania Jr. in titanium case with day-of-the-week complication on a soft stretchy Swatch strap



#86 IKEPOD ISOPODE Dual Time - very rare complication with two independently adjustable (hours & minutes) time zones.



#87 Purists All Black Rescue (ABR) special edition watch manufactured by Saint Gallen Horology for this website, with red silicone strap



#88 Alain Silberstein Pikto Smileday in titanium case (one hand + seconds)



#89 IWC's manufacture but private-branded Porsche Design slim, quartz, annual calendar moonphase on unobtanium strap



And finally, #90 the Omega Electronic Chronometer with "Long Good Friday" f300 dial



At least one more day to go, please stick with me!

I haven't started collecting militaria (yet) but I do have a lot of carpets :-)
