This, your Rolex/ PanAm series I have fully bookmarked - what a nice read,
but also with enough fun and pun to have more than one smile on our faces..
- Nico, you've made us all a very nice early present, soo enjoyable.
I think I've already three times read the series -
- but no less these wonderful specimens; these 1675s are of a special beauty..
- also all these accessories, tickets, maps, they make many cherries on this cake !
True thanks for this lovely share, and those great Rolex tic-tacs,
You have provided us a very nice series to appreciate,
My best, for this first December week
Sincerely, hs

On line, indeed.
And you can imagine how pleasurable it was to write and build this one.
There is a lof of magic behind these GMTs. And the Pan Am goodies do illustrate that very well, IMO.
Best, my dear friend.

There is no medical " contre indication ".
Actually, that is not totally true, as once you get, feel, taste one, the addiction is strong.
Thanks for your kind words, my friend.

....but I HAD to pick one of these pictures for our Masthead picture ;-)

Hola Nicolas!! What a nice, cool and nostalgic trip to the past...
... you made me travel in a "Pan Am time machine" enjoying so many items related with that iconic Airways!
Of course the watches are so gorgeous, and I specially enjoyed and appreciated the Argentinian connection in watch and papers shown as background.
A most enjoyable presentation and I congratulate for the big effort in arranging and producing this Series of Pan Am posts!!
Thank you my friend!
Un abrazo con mucho afecto, Abel.

That would have been a dream to travel with Pan Am.

Faastic photo shoot my friend - I can see you spent a lot of time, and fun, with the maps!
....the map is fantastic, and the book!! great additions.
I really like the black bezel 1675 - very very nice - just my kind of GMT!!
Cheers tony
That is the good thing with the Vintage GMTs. You don't always have to spend

This love to do it.. It can be felt in each line & from start to end.. All a pleasure :)))
The whole series is a real joy for the reader to go through,
in part almost to join on these travels, in one's imagination,
- but also realizing how much work this had been :
- the collecting and the composing
but one can feel the joy of you, the author, to compile this !
I'll again tip my beret, Superb !!
with many kind thanks and greetings ,

Beautiful Watches!
Nico:
They are all stunners, but that 1675 small hand GMT in the third picture down is amazing. Enough to change me from a Sub guy to a GMT guy (almost!)
Thank you for sharing, Nico! And enjoy those watches.

Mike, you can add the GMT love to your passion of the Sub.

What a journey through time… on both accounts.
Alas, Pan Am is no longer but as their bumper sticker says, "Pan Am. Gone but not forgotten." Your post truly brings them back into light and your watches… well, I'm glad they're not gone nor forgotten.
Aloha,
Bob
It was a tough choice...
....but I HAD to pick one of these pictures for our Masthead picture ;-)
What a post!
Thoroughly enjoyed reading this. By the time I was old enough to buy my own flight tickets, Pan Am had ceased to exist, still it brought back memories of when we all knew of Pan Am and the bringing of worlds closer made possible by it...we also took pride in being able to draw the nicest and most accurate logo as young boys. Thanks for the nostalgic trip, and the drooling over those magnificent travel Rolexes.
