Geophysic Passion.
I'm starting to wonder if we shouldn't create a Club which would gather all the Geophysic Fans. The idea came on one Sunday while I was attending a deal between two friends. After all, isn't the Geophysic a purist watch? Its intrinseque value is inside, a...
You speak my heart
I couldn't agree more that this watch -almost like no other- embodies the notion of intrinsic values, which reveal themselves to the owner/admirer because he truly cares and appreciates the discreetness and charm of this watch. No, unfortunately, I don't ...
A watch for connoisseur, indeed.
Put a Rolex Daytona 116 520 and a Geophysic side by side... Show both of them to neophytes. What would be the score? Out of 10, let's say that Rolex will win 9 times out of ten. Now, try the same thing with WIS... The contrary will happen. As for the valu...
Yep... Those I sent you, at that time. Will try to find them...

You have hooked me into loving this piece
I saw that one is available at a dealer in Paris. Do you know about the piece? Thanks, Joe
Yes, I know the watch, I had the leisure to take some pictures of it.
Veeery nice, for sure. And all good. Best, Nicolas.
I just got sticker shock
I inquired about how much damage. Double what you estimated in other post. I guess that's the ticket for a pristine piece of history. Thanks for letting me know about condition Joe Ps. This shop has great vintage pieces. I'll bet you are like a kid in a c...
They are way too high, but at the same time, I am happy to see
That they defend the nice and fine Vintage JLC Patrimony. Best,, and recover fast! Nicolas
A connoisseur watch!
Both elegant and rough at the same time, a dressed tool watch! Interesting combo with the brown croco... Thank you for sharing this stunning example! Here are two quick pics of mine. Best Blomman...
And with its radium dots, located on the plexy!
It is time to launch a Geophysic fan club. Best, my friend. Nicolas
Here' mine
Hi Nicolas here's mine in 18K YG, serial numbers are the ones in Zaf Basha's book. It also has the radium dots on the spacer ring. movement in stunning conditions. And of course I am ready to enter the Geo Club Ciao Franco...
You see, Franco, I am nor a colored gold guy, but for the Geophysic
I would make a big exception and get the watch in YK ANd in RG... Very nice specimen, my friend. Next time we meet, bring it with you, I will take some pictures, if you allow me to do so. Best, Nicolas
I know, I know... The funny thing is
That I saw more RG ( which are much rarer ) than YG in the real life... Best, Franco. I now have to run after the statistics. Nicolas
Beautiful, Franco!
Interesting to see that you have the thinner hands as on mine. Best Blomman
great idea
I would also like to join such a club..and more importantly I'd like to buy a new re-edition of the geophysics - it is in an ideal style, so tasteful.. Anyway, we'll see what JLC comes up with....
I'd like to see a re edition, and fear it, at the same time.
It is really risky to play with a Cult... But yes, a faithful re edition of the Geophysic, with just 3 more milimeters that would be great. Which means a macho case, a refined dial, and a great MANUAL movement... Food for thought... Best, Nicolas This mes...
Agree, risky, but...
JLC has a track record for some classy re-editions... I would agree it has to be manual... but that might be a risk on this one, that they don't go that direction. I'll be really happy if they do
The problem is that you have to start from zero.
They don't have the case, they have to work on another plexy, and the most problematic is the movement. It has to be manual, and it has to feature some characteristics which were indissociable frome the Geophysic movement. Here, no compromise... Best, Nic...
I click too fast. I shouldn't have open this! DAMN me.
I am too stupid now I'm paying for it. Or more accurately have to pay for it . I should stop reading your post for at least ... ... 7 years or else I'll have no peaceful night. Regards Tyler
Are you trying to tell me that you're on to get a Geophysic???
Personally, it is one of the ten watches I wopuld keep, if I had to sell my collection. Best, Nicolas
Getting the Geophysics? Did I say that? I don't remember. Even if I didn't I want one now.
Nico, do you know what to do? I want to join the club. Regards Tyler the eager to join This message has been edited by T.Bean on 2012-04-17 01:04:16
See? I said I shouldn't read your post.
btw since when anything you show here is at the price of a gift. OK, I'll take the bait. PM me the details pls. Regards Tyler
Nobody does numerals better than JLC.
They're perfect. And now I think I know where UN got the idea for the luminous dots on the 160's bezel sidewall ;-) Thanks Nico.
YES! I had the same thought when I saw the UN 160!!!
How many watches have this kind of detail??? The Geophysic is a discrete monster of Chronometry, my friend. Nobody will notice it, except the connoisseur. That is another of its charms... Best, Michael. Nicolas
A dream watch.....
There's nothing I don't love about these (other than the price, which has been sailing up, up and away over the past few years). I've still never had the pleasure of handling one, but one day...... Darren
Well, with a bit of patience, you can save a lot of money
and find the one which will make your heart beat faster... Some two or three years ago, a friend of mine came to visit me with a ... Rosez Gold Geophysic on the wrist. I congratulated him, and asked him where he found this marvel. He told me that his watc...
