Independents

I hear he does some very fine work. Piccadilly with traditional blued serpent minute hand on a cream enamel dial with hand-engraved movement plate. I have wanted a Piccadilly for a while. Meeting Peter helped make my decision easy and he helped me make th...

Piccadillys are very distinctive. Thanks for the photos. Regards, Richard.

PSMs are quite photogenic...there seems to be more "body" to capture, then other flatish watches. best, Horo

You made a great choice. I am sure you will enjoy that for years to come. Don

And I was happy to agree with him. Regards, Richard.

Congrats again, enjoy the watch. Is yours the 38 or 42mm version? Best, Horo

Mine is 38mm. And it's a great fit. Regards, Richard.

You're a bad man Congrats on this stunning PSM .... Cheers, Jealous Bim

I've been good ... ... and I like to reward myself around about this time every year. Regards, Richard.

... is a gorgeous piece of art! Congrats Richard! Beautiful watch from this Peter the Great Wear it with the best of health!

I like the "hidden" beauty of the rear engraving. Any news from Austria? Regards, Richard.

New bridges are almost ready according to Maria and Richard. Can't wait to see the parts ready for assembly Richard please don't neglect your lovely Austrian now that you have a British-Swiss with a gorgeous rear view Have fun with them!

What a beautiful piece! I've been impressed with every PSM I've encountered. They really are special, lovely watches. Enjoy yours for many, many years to come. Long live the Independents! Cheers, Daos

Dealing direct with the watchmaker is an immense pleasure. I wouldn't have thought of the engraving unltil Peter suggested it to me. This one's a definite keeper - because it's mine. Regards, Richard.

Blue hands with white enamel dial - way to go! Just beautiful! Congrats! Did you forget the all important WS BTW? cheers fernando

the photos were taken around 10pm last night. I couldn't get a decently lit wristshot, so I'll save that for another time. Regards, Richard.

It's a lovely combination of classic watchmaking, simplicity with some design panache in the rotor and plate engraving. Great choice. And having met PSM is icing on the horological cake. Peter will be at IGOTT2 with his family if all goes well. Another op... 

but attendance at IGOTT2 is not on the cards at this stage. Thanks for the compliments. Regards, Richard.

Congratulations, and I'm pleased that I played a small part in your new acquisition

Would never have met Peter if not for you so I am deeply indebted. And you seriously helped with the correct sizing of the watch that day so many thanks again. PS: Have been back to Max S a few times now and now have 4 perfectly running older watches as a... 

...that Max has been able to help out. Love Max. More PSM watches for all, say I!

That's a very nice one! I love the engraved bridge and also nice choices you made regarding dial and hands. Big congrats!! Allow me to share my Piccadilly......  

It took me a while to make up my mind. Thanks for the picture. Regards, Richard.

...despite all those hands! Very lovely - a very well conceived configuration, with great respect paid to tradition. Thanks for the photos, and enjoy! Cheers, pplater.

Seeing your Shimoda helped to push me along the PSM path as I mentioned to you back on "Independents Day". I am very happy with this one. Regards, Richard.

so I took the attached photo with my phone. There seems to hardly be any PSM that doesn't work. Yours is lovely and the engraved back is great touch. Do you know who did the engraving? On mine it was by Boris Nemitz (which might to be true on Arthur's pic...  

First Habring. Now PSM. The option of rear engraving satisfied my desire for an engraved watch like yours and an enamel dial. I don't know who did the engraving but I'll check with Peter and let you know. Regards, Richard.

Boris Nemitz worked on the front and back. Regards, Richard.

What, though, did Boris do on the front? Did he work on the hands? Now, guess what I'm getting next......

was rushed as he was in transit somewhere between Bangkok and KL, so perhaps I'll get a fuller answer later. Now if I were Seth, what would I get next? My best guess would be to look towards the "Land of Leprechauns" or the "Land of Reindeers". Or maybe b... 

Peter does some amazing work and as you can see I am a big fan of "Serpents" as well!...  

of a fine looking watch. Well done, thanks for sharing and congrats!

Many, many congratulations! That's a fantastic piece -- I love your choice of the serpent minutes hand, and of course I'm a big fan of engraving the rear plate behind the rotor. Hope that you enjoy wearing this beauty for years to come! Best, Gary G

You've acquired some great watches recently. Hope you're giving the Thalassa some wrist time. Regards, Richard.
