Pure romance…

These days around Christmas and the turn of the year are the time when many of us can relax a little more. Not all of us, but some. Time to reactivate my grail watch before the time of the perpetual calendar comes tomorrow. Yes, this watch definitely exud...  

Thank you so much, dear Fab! 😊🙏

I keep thinking of your beautiful new watch (Patek / School of Fish). A dream. Cheers Thomas ...  

Pure class! Enjoy.

I am sure this watch will stay in my collection forever. It was like made for me. 🙏

This is so beautiful to read

I have this feeling for two watches so far only, and I know how great it feels. Keep enjoying dear Thomas! Alex

You are too kind!l, Alex! 😊

My wish and goal is, that EVERY watch of my collection creates this feeling. That is also an excellent “less-is-more-strategy” where you just keep the watches in your collection you REALLY appreciate and love. No safe queens. No “luke-warm” pieces. May I ... 

I fully agree Thomas

The two pieces are the 5130P and the Milgauss. I would not change anything on them, and when I put them on my wrist, they feel they are part of it. It is a unique sensation that I put down to them being perfect in all aspects (to my taste)

Then, Alex, you definitely have made

 
 By: MTR : January 10th, 2022-22:47
the right choice with these two gems. 😊👍👍👍

Wonderful choice, mon ami.

Merci, mon ami.

This is one of the watches that makes me dream every time I wear it. It creates special “vibes” in me that are not easy to describe. I am very passionate about this gem.

It is for sure a timeless beauty.

 
 By: MTR : December 30th, 2021-20:32
And best of all: this watch is absolutely also suitable as a daily wearer.

Love the sober elegance

 
 By: TeutonicCarFan : December 30th, 2021-14:01

Thanks a lot. 😊

 
 By: MTR : December 30th, 2021-20:35
I completely feel the same. It is sober, clean, pure, but also interesting from a technical point of view. And it has a remarkable wrist presence, too. ...  

Thank you, Sir!

 
 By: MTR : December 30th, 2021-20:19
I love this watch. Everything about it. And it was a many years lasting hunt and took me great efforts to acquire it. From time to time I have to think about your great quality observance post about the „crownless king“ 8 months ago. A milestone. By the w...  

You are far, far too kind, Thomas!

 
 By: BigFatPauli : December 30th, 2021-22:56
I am so glad you enjoyed the read! Heck, I'm flattered anyone remembers is! HA! And yes, there is A LOT to love about that IWC. You are very lucky to have it as part of your collection.

And it makes little sounds, too.

 
 By: MTR : December 30th, 2021-20:21
😊🙏

Forgot about that! Cool!

These thoughts circled in my mind

 
 By: MTR : December 30th, 2021-20:24
for more than two decades. When I detected this rare specimen in Platinum and in unworn mint condition it took me a few hours to decide to fly to Milano to get hold of this gem.

Great story.

 
 By: Costa (aka Connie) : February 2nd, 2022-14:07
It is a gem. One of the nicest watches I have ever seen. I bet it sounds as good as it looks.

It was and is absolutely one of my grail watches.

 
 By: MTR : February 2nd, 2022-17:46
And it's a story in itself how lucky I was to find this watch in this condition (like new, service made by IWC two months before etc.) and what I went through to get this one (hard negotiations, funding, flying to Milano and back in less than one day etc.... 

Thank you, dear Markus.

Yes, “amazing” is a good description. This watch amazes me every time I hold it in my hands or put it on my wrist.

Beautiful watch, Thomas!

Very classy and elegant, I love the clean dial! It suits you very well!! Yours, Adam

Thank you, dear Adam!

 
 By: MTR : December 30th, 2021-20:46
I just detected your Christmas watch - the “mighty” Moser Venturer Big Date. An also very beautiful giant. All the best Thomas

Thanks a lot, dear Tony! 🙏

 
 By: MTR : February 2nd, 2022-12:37
Me too, me too. I'm currently taking a little break from celebrating honeymoon with my new Omega WT (just for one day!!) to appreciate the calming, “resilience-boosting” effect of this dial. Best Thomas ...  

Beautiful watch Thomas. I was wondering when

 
 By: Costa (aka Connie) : February 2nd, 2022-14:05
we were going to see it again. It is pure elegance. Wear it in good health. C

Thanks a lot for your kind words!
