Best,

Horo

You really didn't need to go to so much trouble for is with the nails, my friend, but your attention to detail is appreciated!

Shows how good these watches look in any circumstance.

One last picture, to celebrate our fantastic Parisian GTG.

2 watches, 2 owners, 2 marvels, side by side: A Superocean Chrono, and a Superocean Time Only.



2 friends, happy to be together, and to share some unforgettable and intense moments.

HAGWE,

Nicolas.

A dazzling few days - until the next time.

HAGWE.

We're close to perfection... If only you could have more hair on the wrist.



All the best, my friend.

Nicolas.

I hear that all the Parisian men are visiting the salon for a little -

. . . with duct tape ;-) . . .

And great moment!

...well, actually old and newer since the second one's from the '80s...so not really so new. The bubbleback is from '41.

Your picture makes me miss them a lot!! Great wristshot

Best,

Horo

I wear it quite a bit although it's sooooo small by today's standards. But it's just such a classic and no one ever seems to wear them any more that I enjoy the novelty of it. This message has been edited by Emil Wojcik on 2011-10-14 14:42:04

Nice shot Emil. It really is like a time machine on your wrist when it takes you back 70 years. And it is so often the vintage watches that align more with today's trends of size and appearance that we covet. Whereas the bubblebacks look great for an entirely different reason.

Nice pair and great to see.

...It's good to know others appreciate these vintage pieces as I do.

. . . different perspectives, Horo?  Front . . .

. . . back . . .

. . . and profile views . . .

. . . of the '56 Longines Conquest, newly outfitted with a vintage Longines beads of rice bracelet.

Notice how the silver ring on the dial captures the reflection of the tip of the seconds hand? 

Cordially,

Art

No message body

. . . that vintage Longines is on the "front burner" for your own collection.

Looking forward to hunting more of these marvels: 13 ZN, Weems, and a few others...

Best,

Nicolas.

These conquests are very beautiful dress watches.

. . . that came along with my recent Omega acquisition.

Whoever said, "There's no such thing as a bargain", never received a vintage Longines bracelet thrown in with a mint Connie ;-) . . .

I like it a lot.

Mike

. . . who, in turn, received it from his brother in 1956. 

I'd say that makes it a keeper for sure!

Hagwe guys,

. . . with the ISO setting of the Canon G12 at the highest level, which accounts for the quality of the image.

see it in the metal next time!

. . . when it was on a green croc strap.
