.. many will envy you, even including myself, as I was just a tiny bit too late for the

.. was hoping for several shots of the beauty ( with a full LC set, it appears !),
whereby the " nested tic-tac" and the enlarged at seaside are my personal favs..
But actually, this magic watch looks good in any environment, IMHO.
Despite all sorrow, about losses, friendship like this one, is like a lighttower in life..
I always love shots of her!.. Pretty much a "piece unique" for many here, I guess.
Best, hs
That was indeed your lucky day, Joe! Very lucky day.
Only 65 were made....
So chances to find one are close to zero.
Best, my friend.

True friends make dreams . . .
. . . come thru. It would only be fair if someday you'll be able to return the favor, Joe.

Easy for me... The most spectacular gift I received.
I will make it short... I lost a lot of watches in 2011.
Someone I met once or twice ( !!! 
just heard my " adventure " and offered me to come to London for a small and informal GTG.
And... This is where all started.
Incredible...
Yes, I think this is the most precious Watch for me.
HAGWE,
Nicolas

Yes, exactly, some warmth in a cold period.
And a pretty unique one, in my " collection ".
Best, and thanks for your kind words, my dear friend.

"Life is a roller-coaster".... (Ronan Keating)
We get ups and there inevitably follows downs. The trick is always keep getting up. When we see good things, be happy. When we see bad things, help. Simple philosophies in life...and so often can be remembered through watches. For me....no question...it is these two watches. Soul mate watches. For soul mates. In this shot, both watches looking a little tired and in need of a clean......sometimes a bit like life!!
True . . .
. . . that. When all is said and done, it all comes down to perseverance and goodwill.
Thanks for sharing, Baron. And Mrs Baron, too.
That was quite a story, Nicolas . . .
. . . and an amazingly selfless act of friendship.
On a much smaller scale, one of my friends extended the same sort of generosity by letting me have his one remaining Omega rg balance staff. Without it, my chronomètre wouldn't be completely and faithfully original.

From tears to... Tears. ;) The goodness of this Community is impressive.
As for your balance staff, this is more than a detail. Without it.... No Watch.
Thanks for your answer, Art.

9 months...
is the time that has been needed to finally understand this late 30s Tissot 33.3 was a perfect chronograph for me
the story is that I've crossed that one first clearly, it was not obvious to my eyes at first sight.
9 months later, the watch was still there, Nico crossed it and caught its appealing details at first sight.
When I understood he was about to close it, we met right away, Nico shared his vision about that one and it became obvious to me. Nico was fully aware how much I'm greedy about these 33.3 and, with no hesitation, decided to let me close that one instead.
I owe you that one Nico, I have a deep friendly thought to you each time I put it on my wrist
best,
Laurent

And I don't regret it, when I see how happy you are with this watch.
It was Worth an excellent chocolat chaud Place St Sulpice!
Thiese 33.3 are just sublime. This one is top.
Thanks for the nice thought, my friend.
See you soon?
Best,
Nicolas
