Can you tell us anything more about the last photo, as it looks a lot of fun.

Of course this is best when its warm ))

I like the sunlight's infiltration of the dial. Superb!

Flamboyant shirts are one of my little ways to celebrating life. As for the Moonshine I absolutely love it ! Have a great weekend my dear friend.

All the elements are there, from libations, clothing, environment 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Summer “dolce-far-niente” , each time a happy choice Rolex 16750 Sub Mosaic-stone of Summer - my Breguet Marine Ref 5817 A relaxed attire.. ABP Pro, a truly great companion Always right.. Tjikko, South African Summer & Proteas, when Winter resides in ...  

And oh yeah that VC oversea is so sweet i am melting for it! Cheers!

Very nice photos !

You know we share a few watches all of them lovely. But you always leave me drooling when you show your FF! A killer!! I´m surprised to see your Tjikko watch which I don´t remember viewing before. Also I´m not familiar with this brand. Is that a new catch... 

As far as the Tjikko watch is concerned, it’s just a little, low-key Manufacture shop in Cape Town, SA which does wooden cases from all kinds of woods; they just are putting simple Chinese Quarz movements inside. (Pretty reliable these are but nothing fan... 

... watches to be used in certain circumstances. Thank you for your clarification about this interesting watch. Thank you for your good wishes for next week and same to you my dear friend. Best cordial regards, Abel

I often wear it in summer, too. All your other choices are very apropos, too 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 ...  

And you are right, it’s a true “GADA”- watch (Go Anywhere, Do Anything).. Have a relaxed remaining Sunday and a good week to come ! Best to you & yours ! hs

Already took a couple of bracelet and rubber straps watches out of the safe incase the 🌞 will start doing his thing soon 🙏🏻😎 HAGWE 🤗 ...  

I like the BB58s on a rubber strap .

It’s a good look 👍

... for Summer, specially if spent in seaside places. It´s one of my favorite watches for my holidays by the sea which has accompanied me many times. Enjoy your Summer so much! Hagwe! Abel

I agree about the BB58s . Perfect beach watches . I always bring one or two with me when on holiday

Both variants have shown me to be very reliable and practical watches. Agree they are perfect beach watches. Great choice! Best cordial regards, Abel

And your watch themed towels / swim trunks are epic 👌🏻 The one watch I expected in your lineup was the Vehetinen - a great summer choice, too 👍🏻

I pref a rubber strap or bracelet when its hot outside 😉

...  

Enjoy your Summer so much! Hagwe! Abel

Great combinations and adding strawberries and ice cream is the proverbial cherry on top 🍒

. . . playing pool. 🎱 ...  

. . . a dive watch, either. Now you know why I don't have one.

... watch like the Omega Seamaster 300 as an addition to your collection? Beautiful GS you share here. Love these videos! Keep them coming my dear friend. A big hug for you. Hagwe! Abel

. . . efforts, Abel. We keep trying to out-do the other, which is why we keep improving. As for diving Seamasters, I'm especially fond of pre-Bonds, and might end up with one under the right circumstances. Warmest, Art

A pre Bond is a very interesting timepiece and not commonly seen. I wish you´ll find yours some day soon! Cheers! Abel

. . . so probably not any time soon, but a steel mid-size pre-Bond and a certain Constellation are still on my want-to-have list. Art

... (that "certain Connie") you have on your list. Knowing you I guess it´s a very special variant

. . . in the late '60s. [photo credit of Ω ref 168.025: eBay listing] A limited number* made in three distinct models, two gold-capped black dial versions and this grey two-tone dial in solid steel. They don't come up often, and when they do they're usual...  

[ref 168.025 credit: davudvl / photo credit: Dr No] . . . but steel case with two-tone grey dial would be my preference. Art ...  

. . . likely without the crown. The cushion case gives it a bit of added presence on the wrist; I've had David's on mine and it wore impressively well. Art

While summers are not high beat affairs this watch is never wrong 👏🏻👌🏻

Yet am enjoying my time. ...  

A few from when it was a bit warmer! Cheers JML ...  

HAGWE!

😜

Delicious shots you are sharing with us this weekend 😋

My current summer specials are the morning cycle ride tool, and a handy railway journey tool. ) ...  

I do love my cycling! Quite lucky where I live as it is only 20mins ride to Hyde Park, Green Park and Buckingham Palace (15mins to Westminster), and 15mins the other way to Maritime Greenwich. I love my city! ...  

It is an amazing city and so vast and historic. Cycling is the best way to see all the nooks and crannies. Of course living seconds away from the tube network means getting anywhere from work to pleasure is even quicker.

They sold out very quickly with all the money going to the Red Cross for Ukraine. Well done 👏 👏👏

It was good to receive updates regarding the total funds and when it was sent over to the RC. I am still surprised that Omega does not have this on their website, considering they have many other countries' flags.

It’s a good cause to support.

Hagwe! Abel

But the speedmaster is something else. As an enthusiast I feel that it was important to own (as is a Patek)! Rolex, well, I did own, but I am trying to get back into the fold, though these waiting lists are pain. (

... subject my Speedy to the vibrations of riding the bike. Probably no problem in the city but if riding off road things get worst for any mechanical watch I feel.

... part of the world. I am happy to know about your fondness for golf and viewing the array of wonderful watches you shared with us. As usual your straps choices add to the enjoyment of owning and wearing them. Anyway I searched my HD for some shots to p...  

Several à point choices and I liked a bunch of your shots ! Watchwise I would go with the SeaDweller, my personal favs from your series are the Bronze-lunette “Splash shot” of your Seiko, if I am not mistaken. Lastly your Bulova also is a cool tool & ... 

... so I can only dream through these pictures with the feelings and enjoyment of Summer days spent by the sea. Always happy to share my pictures and watches here!! Enjoy so much your Spring and next Summer Seasons my dear friend. Best cordial regards and... 

But good to know you’ve got several options to escape the “grey days”.. - Like your collection,( even if I don’t know them all so well). Cheers !

hope you'll get to enjoy your line-up of watches in warmer weather soon!

... to travel in the past years as I wished. I wish I will be able to enjoy it again in the near future. Have a nice weekend! Abel

have a great weekend!

Thanks again for taking the time to search and share these beauties with us today! Cheers!

... both shots and watches here! Have a nice weekend my dear friend, Abel

A summer combo

Glad to know you liked these shots! Hagwe! Abel

Wow.. that’s a great shot Abel ! I love all your photos and your Bulova looks particularly good. Have a great weekend dear friend.

Very nice to have it on the wrist. Have a beautiful weekend too my dear friend. Abel

Never noticed that Bulova before. 👍

...  

This is very different to their current range, and one I do like!

is embosed in high relief in the limited edition.

My favs are the JLC on the mirrored black surface, Sea-Dweller & Corona, pink Doxa with turquoise sea (!), and that cool Bulova with the angled sea disappearing behind it!!

...  

Well played 🍻

Summer is not summer without these bloody things…. ...  

That´s too long ago I regret to say! Lol!

My Mk 40 says hello! Cheers! Abel ...  

it is summer all year round in my country and as such, i guess most of the watches in my collection would provide the summer vibes... some of them more so than the others the one that is on my wrist at the moment though is the parmigiani tonda pf micro ro...  

I'll like it even more if there's no date window and hence, I'm now waiting for the gmt rattrapante 😉

have a great week ahead!

… give you great pleasure everything is ok. Sooner or later All collections need changes along the long journey of the collector to accommodate it to his changes in tastes and experience. Keep enjoying your watches my friend! Cheers! Abel

With a tropical climate here, I don't miss the sun at all, lol. I prefer to stay in for some beer 🍻 ...  

... interested in the Bronze Gold version you own which is my favorite. Love the vintage vibes of this variant. Beautiful indeed! Have a nice weekend my friend, Cheers, Abel

The steel versions are colorful and modern esp on metal bracelet. However, the bronze gold with the brown dial is the one that exudes vintage charm. Hope you get to see it soon! 🍻

... my country but sooner or later they will arrive. Keep enjoying your beauties my dear S F!! Best cordial regards, Abel.

we always do some fast rounds. With Nivada Chronomaster in summer mood. ...  

. . . a million years ago! Had a Group 20(?) with a Miyota(?) motor that had an armature running in ball-bearings. Sad to say I can't remember what happened to it . . . must've thrown all that stuff out. Art

... I regret to say, when these scale races were so popular and I enjoyed so much. Hagwe! Abel

it is already summer. My CFB glistening under the sun. ...  

Here's for you a random selection of past summer wristshots --- of course, (almost) ALL of them with a good Negroni/Negroski in my hands! Have a great weekend, and an equally good start of the summer season Everyone! Negroni "bianco", with white Martini i...  

Not to mention you seem to be our king of negroni, I title you likely share with a dear doctor Tony aka aperna!👌👌

Cheers! Abel

Hopefuly when I can finally get my retirement from my work duties and travel is getting more normal again I will be able to do it. Cheers! Abel

....some shots from previous summer trips this will be travelling watch when i start my trips again HAGWE ...  

and watches, sounds good to me 😬🍻

Let’s see what’s there from past seasons… Something with fruit inside to drink… Water sports… NATO straps on completely unsuitable watches 😉 The two piece swimsuit 😂 White straps… And dive watches that can do so much more than the wearer 😉 An enjoyable im...  

Good choices for the Summer.

Truly like your Mings, especially the first ( is this a Dual Time ? Didn’t quite follow this model.. My absolute favs from your watch box are the superb Chopard Flyback Chrono with that ultra-cool long stripe- NATO strap White on dark blue ! - Very well d... 

Wishing a nice Summer and a great week ahead my friend. Best, Abel

Just had to show this combo some sunshine… ...  

in the sunshine. Thank you my dear friend.

...  

Excellent 👌

It’s all part of getting maximum pleasure from your collection. It’s easy to have a great collection and end up just using the same couple of watches.
