Gustave Eiffel, Opus 3, Max Busser..legacies from 2003.
This larger portion, the beginning of, this post was written in the winter of 2003, and brings to an end the era of a wait for a legend. Opus 3. It is also the beginning of a new era of my having left the moderatorship of thepurists. The Beginning: Dec 20...

u are a breath of fresh air to the purists once again....
and u are very missed for yr mischievious post of beautiful ladies, controversial watch stress-testing on wheels but your forte has to be the attention to details and angles on watches. i enjoyed yr story very much and respect u for yr obsession for mecha...
If you are alluding to the Opus 3...
Bernard you are really able to hold your breath for a long, long time Don
Thank God they took so long..I had no more funds!
In fact, I have been saving like a squirrel for Opus 3 since I began this post in 2003. Meaning...I put off buying lots of stuff. OK..well..I did buy some stuff...but compared to most real collectors...I came to almost ZERO buying from 2004.
Hey..you are a very astute buyer.
The Z1..many did not hold on..and now..it is so rare. At one time, people were selling it. I think that it will be one of the really usable, tough, and maintenance free pieces that are always interesting at gatherings. I see TONS and TONS of Lange and Pat...
December is an exciting month
If you can...come to KL with the gang on the 9th! Max, PSM, and probably a few others will be there from 9th to 13th. It is not as crowded as Basel. On another note...I will organise a get together for us all in Singapore when you are here. Let SJX know.....
Bernard, so great to see you here again... Destiny wants that I'll arrive...
in KL for business the 9 Dec at 19:50... It would be great to see you all! Best, Magnus This message has been edited by Magnus Bosse on 2009-11-12 00:43:02
GREAT. On arrival..go immediately to Starhill and to Shook
The entire gang will be there for 5 nights!!! Man..are you lucky. I will reserve dinner for you.
Bernard, you always have unusual insights. I would not compare myself..
to you, but I am far from spend 1% on my hobbies.
Ronald. I have this compulsion to take anything I do to the extreme
In the area of watch collecting or whatever they call it these days, I was born and created my work ..which is now probably very diverse...at the right time. I noticed a colleague of mine, not wealthy, struggling with a job, but spending almost all he ear...
Beautiful watches...
Thank you for the anecdote about the Eiffel Tower. I didn't know the Eiffel tower was considered to be so light. It is important to know that Gustav Eiffel was also involved in the construction of the Panama Canal and other very important buildings. His d...
MB&F appearance, construction and values, with Opus 3 and 5..
made me look at Eiffel's project and read about it. I have since been several times to the Tower, and have examined many parts of it, feeling it with my hands. It is large, and feeling it still works like the same way I always feel watches with my hands. ...
Watch out for the woman "married" to the Eiffel tower
Sounds absurd, but Erika Le Tour Eiffel married the tower. Perhaps your specialty as a doctor could help explain that strange convergence of metal and woman? Sometimes we get perilously close to loving these watches ... I'll refrain from trying to post a ...
Micheal Mannings work "Hydrophibian" springs to mind
I came across this in 2004 or so...I have collected almost all of his work. Incredible. Disturbing. Totally invigorating! I must google this Eiffel woman.
