Thanks, Davo -- that second shot...
...is of course somewhat out of character for me, as I've spent so much time learning how to get edge-to-edge sharpness with tilt/shift and focus stacking that I'm almost phobic about bokeh!
Appreciate the feedback -- it will encourage me to swing back a bit from a technical perspective to more of an artistic one, perhaps.
Best,
Gary
Two Vs
What a pleasure! Challenges at work and absences from home notwithstanding, life could be a whole lot worse. Thanks again to my Singapore hosts for making the pickup of my Antiqua so memorable! Best, Gary G...
Kari and Vianney do great work, no?
Wonderful for me to be able to see these two side by side -- they just shout "quality" in every way... Best, Gary
Thanks -- about the size...
I think that people are led astray by photos of the Antiqua -- as you know, it is much more delicate in life than in images. The time telling dials, of course, are very different in size indeed! All the best, Gary
Many thanks, Don!
I'm very flattered that you liked it -- and proud to see it on the masthead. More coming, as part of a wearing impressions review... Best, Gary
More like 3Vs mate...Veni, Vidi, Vici
Well done mate...and what another beautiful shot. It was my pleasure, and I am sure Vox populi the others as well, to have you spend time with us. Vicariously, Votively, Vagotonially Horo
Vagotonia!
I thought I had a decent vocabulary, but I had to look that one up! It of course turned out not to be a small South American republic, but a medical state including, among other things, low blood pressure. Brilliant! If we can all couple racing heart rate...
Truth be told, I was taught that word by a lady doctor
And I won't disclose how we got to tht topic - Best, Horo
what a pair
drool-worthy pictures again! Thanks for the vicarious pleasure, best Andreas
Thanks, Andreas
Still pinching myself to have both of these in hand. For me the very close matching of the RG color between these two watches makes a side by side view even better. Best, Gary
Two Kings!
You've got 2 Kings of Kings there Gary! It's great to see the Observatoire alongside the Antiqua! It would be a difficult decision each morning, as to which one to strap on!
Hard to pick between royalty
Having worn the Antiqua every day so far this week, today it was the Observatoire (I just can't resist it). For the weekend, perhaps put both in the safe and head out with my VC Overseas... Best, Gary
Gary, you're spoiling us
with all these great photos on all your recent posts, including this one. Thank you! Regards, Richard.
May we all continue to spoil each other!
I've had a great run of recent acquisitions, but for me it's just as much fun (and an interesting challenge) to return to old favorites once more with the camera. And of course, it's even more fun to enjoy the great photos that you and others post here --...
2 modern classics....
that could not be more different from one another. Your wrist will be well looked after for the foreseeable future.... Darren
I've started referring to it...
...as The Luckiest Wrist in the World... Thanks! Gary
And you might be right.
Fantastic choices of magnificent iconic works of art and craft. Wow. I drool at your collection and these two, in particular.

Thanks FX!
I'm really enjoying the Antiqua quite a bit...and the pleasure of the Observatoire has not diminished over the past 2 years and 9 months! Best, Gary
