Nice pair!
The turquoise looks great actually....much better in the your picture than on the official pictures.
Very nice watch Richard!
I have nothing on my wrist today but hopefully by Valentine's Day next year, I shall have this! ...
That is not too far away
And definitely nice to know you have a clear timeline unlike some other orders. Looking forward to celebrating with you, my friend!
I have decided to change my order
from a Series 2 to a Series 1. Awaiting ok from Roger.
Thank you Mike!
As beautiful as it is, I am trying to convince myself that it could be my ONLY watch but I keep looking at the possible victims with much love! So it will be part of a small collection of five watches.
Wow ! Excellent I go exactly the same way
As per my motto that you know, less is more : I have already reduced my collection a lot and I am considering reducing one last step further with one more crazy move. But I have to think twice or more... This awaited RS is crazy beautiful 👍
It was my retirement gift to myself
as did retire 4 years ago. I am just finalising the specification with Roger before it goes into production in March. Well done Mike on reducing your collection - one of the toughest things to do for anyone passionate about watches.
What a gift, that’s a real treat 👍👏👏👏
I have already reduced a lot. I am still working on the last step so as to see if it goes very far or too far... I don’t know yet myself at this stage but it will be decided soon...
You have some beautiful pieces Mike
so reducing it to below 5 would be way too challenging in my humble opinion.
The old phone doesn’t do justice
Not easy to capture the blued screws, gold chatons and the red gold plating at the same time with the phone camera. Will need to find the time to get some nice pictures
It makes me both happy and sad when I look at your beautiful Dornblueth!
Happy because this one checks all the box for me; Sad because I tried ordering one a few months back, contacted them 3 times and they never replied, or got back to me 😢
I hope you get to them
They’ve been very responsive and helpful throughout my entire ordering process, so it may be just COVID related lockdowns?
What a marvelous watch!
I have to research and learn more about Dornblueth. Best Thomas
The hidden gem
Beautiful one. One of those watches where only the owner knows what’s behind
