The 1019 is flying high.
You know how it turns with good friends, they always come with watches you're running after. The 1019 is no exception to the rule. This one has a superb dial with a great patina. Charm and discretion, that required a few pictures, don't you think? On an i...
Lovely Example!!!
The condition looks superb! Not to mention I adore the white dial variant of the 1000 gauss :) Thanks for sharing! Enrique
Yes....
agree...this 1019 reference is one of the top "hunts" for me. It is the one that has got away so many times. But 100% agree....a must-have in a collection. This is a beauty
Same for me. I am just waiting for mine to come...
One like this one, for example. ;) Best, my good friend. Nicolas
Only once and I suspect you are waiting for the perfect specimen.
Silver dial instead of black like mine. Maybe because of your rasta that you opt for the silver dial ;) Regard Tyler
Very nice example
I missed one of those a few years ago and I am always kicking my self. Bill
Still blaming myself for not going for it a few years ago
They are now in the 25k$/30 range... A bit steep for me The pics are amazing though.
A few years ago, things were almost the same... 10 years ago...
It was really different indeed... Aaah, these trains we missed! ;) Best, Nicolas
Beautiful pictures Nicolas! You know: I Love those rooftop shots!
This watch looks specially elegant, and like it better the straight seconds hands. By some reason, I don´t personaly like the distinctive "ray" seconds hand of some versions of the Milgauss. The clear dial, also adds to the plain and elegant look of this ...
Gracias, Abel... I am more and more attracted by this silver dial.
Which is strange as Black dials, in general, are my favs... But I think the silver dial is very coherent with the watch, and at least you have th pleasure to face some nice patined indexes. Yes, my friend, I will be in Paris around the 18th, till the 22d....
Thank you Nicolas!! I also like black dials in general, but this Milgauss...
... is nicer in silver dial I guess. Re: Paris: I will be arriving on the 18th. I will be sending you a PM with details later. This new visit to Paris will be not complete if I can´t meet you, depending in your schedule, at least for a nice coffe and talk...
this is the issue....
.....on this Milgauss, I just cannot decide whether i prefer silver or black. No question, red on black USUALLY looks best. But with this watch, I am not so sure. The potential for patina on the silver is alluring. And, i have to say the rest of my family...
Grab it if you find one..
...in that condition...looks like we are running after the same watches here :-) I love the white dialed variant Best my friend. Still on the Italian roofs? Hans
No, sadly back to Paris, but I have a lot of quick trips to do in Sept.
Wil come back to Trieste for a speical week end, in 10 days... As for the 1019, can't agree more with you... Will grab one, I see it in my not too distant horizon, if I find the correct one, of course. All the best! Nicolas
