"Our" Tudor. Happy holidays (or better, in Portuguese: "Feliz Natal"). Cheers, Nilo

that way I can look on the dial and see when each of you is celebrating! For example, it is now 6am in Paris and I expect Nicolas will respond in seconds, while I am having some Royal Tokai that languished in my cellar from 1998 til we discovered it last ...  

Congrats Mike - and compliments of the season. Cheers, pplater.

Ho sorry ... ...  

It's a shame that Minerva watches here are among the rarest ones. It's more easy to locate an honest politician here than a Minerva. Enjoy yours. Cheers, Nilo

You don't need another for Xmas. I love those Longines from their glorious era. Cheers, Nilo

neither very difficult to find nor very expensive...various options as well...but really nice and clean ones are more scarce. This one was on my side list for a while until I was lucky to find this one, enamel dial, nice condition, great patina original h...

not perfect, it's for a cleaning with my watchmaker now. The case back has a few issues, but not visible on the wrist and the crown is not original. But I already organised an original crown and my watchmaker will put that on. I should have it back before... 

From the 70's? Cheers, Nilo

Ref 9628 was introduced in the early 70ties, but was building on earlier ellipse GPs. I have another ellipse, quite a bit smaller, which should belong to the late 50ties. CC ...  

A connaisseur choice! :) HAGWE, my friend Blomman

Hi all Hoping to get this back Cheers JML ...  

Beautiful, timeless. Be sure to read the watch manual before setting the dates and moon phase. This movement changes the dates and moon phase almost all the time, leaving (if I remember) something between 6-7 AM where those mechanism are not engaged. I mi... 

Hi Thanks for the reminder. I think one of the reasons that when it gets wrist time then its worn a lot as the setting feels a bit involved. I know its not that involved, but its not just strap it and change the dates. I agree - full calendar is great and... 

whether it's this one or not ? Won't know until the day. :) HAGWE! fernando ...  

Love when I see the watch on the "proper" golden point. Cheers, Nilo

One Q be allowed: Which Ref is that ? ( 5402 - probably not ? 15202 ?) Indeed, an alltime classic ! All the Best for the upcoming Festive Season ! Best, hs

That'll be a True Blue Christmas. Love that blue dial over any blue dial. Sam.

my trusty Orion for my first Christmas with it. Having chocolates with the lady. It seems to suit the theme. Forgive me for the poor picture quality, I have not had access to a decent camera for over two months. HAGWE Erik ...  

what will happen when you get hold on decent one :) Sincerely Damjan

... as all of these photos were taken on my phone!

Amazing! Congratulations! Cheers, Nilo

but it really checks all the boxes for me. I love a simple watch. Maybe one day I'll be lucky enough to have had the Simplicity on my wrist. HAGWE Erik

I've been getting a sort of hipster vibe about them, yet they really do have a nice selection. It's unfortunate I don't see many fellow PuristS sporting them. Though I've only been around here for a short time.

The end of the year... This moment of the year is propice to greediness. ;) Best, my friend. Nicolas

Hs, This Geophysic is, with the Omega SM 300 Master, a serious candidate for the Watch of the Year. Simple and classic. A forever watch. Cheers, Nilo Note: Nice collage.

Again, congrats, my friend! :) Best Blomman

...on the wrist, yet it is cold outside. This one - at least when it shall not slip easily under the tux shirt sleeve: Thus, still lots of work to be done before 2015, so I hope there is still another short two weeks in office before the holidays. - Anyw...

Please, please come over to the GP forum and show more of this stunning watch! :) Best Blomman

And very nice watch, I still remember when I was attracted by this one when it was launched. For me, it is not a picture taken today but the Nautilus will be on my wrist until the end of this year. Cheers, Mark ...  

Who needs a tree? Cheers, Nilo

Even if I like the independant's spirit and especially the team of De Bethune and their work, I think my 5712 is my favorite of the ones I have. Have a nice week end ;) Cheers, Mark

enjoy it Mark... it is BEAUTIFUL. Cheers, Javier

Thanks a lot Javier :) Cheers, Mark
