However, these are quite rare (its a limited edition many years ago), and the asking price is out of my budget for a GS. On the other hand, the warm, cream colored SBGW231 is also nice, albeit the all polished case is a bit too dressy.
Well, with Christmas around the corner it’s time for writing lists and making wishes (yes, I’m focusing on this aspect of the holiday for now). So with that in mind what’s on your wish list? If you were writing a letter to Santa Claus, Saint Nick, Father ...
two decades ago. Mine had a silver dial but was still so gorgeous and I loved the size. But my Christmas wish list this year would be to be allocated a Simp0licity! More than 10,000 applicants for 10 watches makes the probability of that happening less th...
As for me, the new Krayon Anywhere is currently on the top of my wish list. I'm definitely considering it as a possible next acquisition, but that would be at least another few years down the road... ...
The salmon dial takes it to the next level. I imagine it being worn on New Years Eve with a formal suit or tuxedo. As for finding something in my stocking, I’ve been fortunate enough this year that I’m not anticipating anything grand, just looking forward...
And I think my wish is very modest - I simply want Santa to swap my Monopoussoir XL for the regular version in yellow gold with a railroad minute track. Not asking that much, am I? photo by Antiquorum ...
I cashed this watch about 4 or 5 years ago, finally getting one on the wrist proved an anticlimax (unfortunately for me). It just wasn’t right on my wrist. I still love it though.
And of course it was a steal in hindsight (single figures), but at the time I thought I’d have another pass at it and try it on again and maybe I’d feel different. When I was back at the dealer about 5-6 weeks later the watch was sold (these days these mo...
...even if I couldn't afford the platinum model. Intetestingly, it was Geo's pictures of exactly this limited edition that originally sparked my interest. The feel of the Dumont on the wrist with its ultra thin profile is simply something else. Since then...
Could we say that Cartier is at this point still a little under appreciated in the general collector space? I suspect this will change if it hasn’t already. A monopusher would be a great addition. Geo has one I believe that is just sublime.
...even from the time I bought my first Cartier, the dumont, two years ago there seems to have been a significant appreciation in prices, also helped by the recent relaunches of several of the classic models. But the vintage Cartier is still surprisingly ...
Although i have purchased a lot of amazing watches lately I always have a few on my wishlist. From a casio till a Greubel Forsey 😬. I hope that the watch I ordered a year ago will be ready soon . Thats my only wish for this Christmas 🙏🏻. (Will let you kno...
Like you, I too always have several on the watchlist. Something Cartier is one placeholder, the specific watch could be one of several. The original UN Freak is also there and of late I’ve been dreaming of adding a Lange back in to the lineup. My dirty li...
Like the new GF (to bad out of reach for me for now) so lets hope some amazing indie brand will give us a more affordable sports watch in the near future 🙏🏻😉
But for some reason, my better half talked me out of it. For me it is an elegant, timeless classic but my wife had reservations. I should probably ask her for a more detailed explanation. As far as a wish list, with all the recent postings of UN, the bran...
As for UN, yes. The original Freak is a watch that would also be on the list for me. In terms of modern UN there are definitely some pieces that catch the eye.
However, these are quite rare (its a limited edition many years ago), and the asking price is out of my budget for a GS. On the other hand, the warm, cream colored SBGW231 is also nice, albeit the all polished case is a bit too dressy.
. . . with a proper manual winding movement. And yes, I would buy one. This would've been perfect . . . . . . had Omega fitted a cal 8929 without the gold-finished bridges used in the Trésor. ...
If we can ask for anything A Daniels watch - anything made by him A Reverso 60eme Reverso minute repeater Lang pour le merit? The one with the chain on the barrel? I know I'm a bit vague, but Santa will know! Then perhaps also, a bit of understanding from...
The main check box is, i want a 100XL. The big Santos. The two tone steel/gold with a white dial. Strap and bracelet are both including. A one tone steel. The basel full set with diamonds. There is also a nice two tone black. The blue dialed normal sized ...
Where is the manufacture? Custom? I don’t believe I’ve ever seen one on the road here but now that I’ve taken note of this one it’s possible I will be more aware.
I don’t know much about Cartier which is of course a lack on my part, since it is such a great and important company. My mother actually started making a small collection of them ten years ago. (I think I inspired her) You may possibly convince me that a ...
