Great theme idea! Happy to join in with a few shots of my own. First, the wonderful Lange Datograph, but with a twist (both on the strap and the metal) -- rose gold rather than the "iconic" PT. This one recently departed from my collection, but lots of fo...

Early 70's. Brittish Marin issued. Best Blomman

Here is my (first) wristscan contribution: Girard Perregaux Richeville Chronograph, Ref 2750. Why this one? It was my first serious watch some 17 years ago, so it holds a special place in my heart. A classic chronograph with 2 subdials, no date display an...  

This Richeville is a superb souvenir. And I agree with everything you said about what makes it so special. Best, my Lucky friend. Nicolas

Lovely chronograph pushers, and very legible despite the Tonneau case which can be challenging for designers. Congratulations on your long term companion. Andrew

I didn't know it was quite thick. Thanks for sharing this rare watch with us ;) Cheers, Mark

This one is the boldest, the most "designed" chronograph I ever had the pleasure to wear: Concord C1, the original version not the diluted one that is currently offered: And my faithful tissot, a good travel companion outdoors: ... which did not leave me ...

Prior to space, huge efforts were made by manufactures to offer reliable wrist tool-watches for pilots. If Longines is the most obvious of all, there are some others, Gallet is one of them They produced in the early 40s this waterproof chronograph called ...

Sigh!!!! Mo ...  

DeBethune made us sigh a lot ;) Best regards Damjan

This is maybe going to be my favorite chrono ever, when I learn a bit more about the movement, about how they managed to combinate all the hands and saving friction energy. By the way, I saw your little interview on W.Anish with nice pictures it seems you... 

look and test drive in January and it was hypnotic. The funding is currently the problem, but we will need to scheme and dream for now. It is in a word--Spectacular. Best to you Sir and no news from the Hawaiian artist, Tim

The background is nice too. Keep a helmet on. Bill

Ever flip it over to check the minute counter? Beautiful scenery, Carl!

It is however the least most useable feature of the watch... It does help to keep the face beautifully clean though.

Not a great shot of the pair, I'm afraid, but these are my two favorites: HAGWE all! ...  

Now I sound like a Beatles song! :) Best, Nicolas

AMVOX!" I think that's how the song goes. ;-)

But i've tried to get as close as I can to the stars! I don't yet have a Dato, although that will be my ultimate chrono once the day comes where I can call one my own. In the meantime, I take my Speedy Pro with me whenever I need a dependable and rugged p...

I have a huge weakness for Lemania... Best, Nicolas

This has the same movement as the moon watch. Lemania supplied Omega with movement and also to other watch brands.
