Good to here that you are travelling seriously with this Batman. I like it much, much more than the Pepsi 😲
Time and time again...

I go back to my royal oak 15400 when I want something to put a smile on my face. No bank vaults or safes though...I live in the super-secure UAE ...
Nice shot!

Safe
By: Weems@8 : February 28th, 2020-11:01
Good to hear there are countries who are safe and do not contain criminals. A country like Monaco is the same. If you know the story Nicolas told about his Rolex Airking, you know thieves are the worst people on earth. I can not accept thieves, so the UAE...
happy end
By: Weems@8 : February 28th, 2020-11:47
The story of the Rolex Airking from Nicolas have a happy ending. He got another Rolex Airking from WPS. Call it coincidence, his Rolex was stolen in Spain. But why do so much people get robbed in Spain? Why not working for money, and buy in a store. Spain...
Second u.

Do you use two accounts? There is somebody who sign also with Nicolas.
Wow Abel: your personal section of the bank vault?

By: Cpt Scarlet : February 28th, 2020-10:26
I don’t remember seeing this one before. It looks good on your wrist Abel and your last static shot is excellent. Have a great weekend 🥂
I looked at a grey dial version...
By: Cpt Scarlet : February 29th, 2020-02:52
And found it an interesting alternative. The dial went from dark silver to grey depending on the light.

Do pocket watches count?...
By: toxly347 : February 28th, 2020-08:13
This one lives in a drawer. I only wind it every so often, but listening to this watch always brings good memories and a smile. Thank you for the invitation, Count de Monet, and congratulations on a great choice of topic. Hagwe ...
That is a dial!
By: COUNT DE MONET : February 28th, 2020-09:28
Are those numbers around the dial up to 300 the sub seconds? Who is the manufacturer?
Manufactured by Jaccard & Cie...
By: toxly347 : February 28th, 2020-09:37
.. circa 1880. Yes, they are subsecond markers for the chronograph, but I do not know how they are used. In spite of being quite an old watch and growing up with it, so to speak, I still find it mesmerising after all these years. It belonged to my father....
Indeed

Many thanks
Not a Bank Safe!

By: Watchonthewrists : February 29th, 2020-12:46
Ofcourse i would hate to loose any of my watches , i love them all from a Swatch to a high end one . But these are in a box where me or my wife can easily grab one during the week . Rest of my watches are safely stored some wear else . To be honest The 5t...
Superb set of Seikos
By: jml_watches : February 29th, 2020-13:40
Really like the 5th one great dial and that replacement strap is pretty much perfect. Cheers JML

when i was buying watches i like and whether their value could hold was not much of a consideration have a nice weekend, everyone! ...
Aaah ... the "crazy" Milus watch
By: COUNT DE MONET : February 29th, 2020-01:55
Always lots and lots to explore on the dial. You are absolutely right: value does not matter. Congratulations to this Milus!
it's crazy indeed...
By: terbaboom : March 1st, 2020-01:46
i had to pay USD640 for a replacement strap. looking at what the brand offers now, it's even crazier 😅
Always happy to bring this one out of the vault
By: NT931 : February 29th, 2020-02:38
Ironically , as the prices of the 5711 keep going up, I actually wear this less and less for fear of scratching it. But when I do, there’s a big smile on my face! ...
I know the feeling but ...

An 11th wedding anniversary piece - my wife got an Erwin with the same 11 😊👍🏻
What a great idea!
By: NT931 : February 29th, 2020-20:14
Now what should I do if I’ve been married 24 years.... hmm...
I guess I do 😉
