Have a great weekend everybody  !

This one is especially for Jeff because you liked this watch so much last weekend

... I would love to know more about the crown cufflinks. Were these a sanctioned Rolex product? Age?

Very classy and striking combination.

...and normal stainless steel, Graham; I guess it's just the lighting that's giving a dark cast to the metal.

Still influenced by this weeks Parisian GTG.

Longines Ultra-Chron, Ref. 7827 (Cal. 431, auto), 36000vph, 25 jewels, PR 42h, steel, 34x9mm, circa 1969.

Ps.  Michael Bay is currently filming Transformers 3 for a July 2011 release (without Megan Fox this time round).

... and keeps great time. The short power reserve is the only minor issue I have. Although this relates more to my wearing habbits than the watch itself as it is an automatic. If it was your only watch and worn every day then this would not be an issue.

Andrew

I don't know who influences who, but one thing is sure, this one is a lovely one!

Do you have pics of the movement?

Best,

Nicolas

Thanks Nico, that’s too kind. I know you have influenced many others, but if I can tug at your heart with the occasional Constellation or this Longines, I am very happy.

 

I don’t have any great movement shots as the watch is a little difficult to open without the right equipment – the crystal is popped off the front with compressed air and the movement follows.

I haven’t said this before, but you have many watches that I would love to have in my collection. The ones that come immediately to mind are the E168 Geophysic (with the E399 Geomatic a very close second), the Rolex 5508 and the E855 Memovox (either the white or black dial as I am not really that fussy). You can post as many photos of these watches as you want!

Here's one more shot of the Ultra-Chron just for you. Keep well.

Of the JLC Geomatic.

The " Ressemblance " goes even with the Rotor, which, in both cases, is engraved with the Brand Logo.

Thanks for the movement pictures, Andrew.

As for my collection, the first you can get which is not too difficult to get is the E 855 Memovox.

A lovely, nice, charmful and timeless  watch.

The Geomatic can be found quite easily, with a bit of patience.

As for the Geophysic, I saw very few for sale, so, if you see one, jump on it!

Thanks fro the nice words, my friend.

Best,

Nicolas
