... this classic chrono. The Breguet is a very special watch for me, full of memories of Paris where I bought it. Of course it lacks the charm of your vintage model, but still I love it so much. Thank you for your words and good wishes my dear friend. Hag...
AMVOX II: the end game chrono IMHO. Ingenuity of activation, materials and display (all with skeletonization) and depth. Sadly, it can’t stay bc of difficulty with wearability Grönograph: the wait, the wait! Hanhart 417 BZ (Green Body) Habring2 chrono Fel...

In addition to my minerva a duometre and cdv would be perfect. Duometre for it's unique movement and the cdv for my favorite version of the lemania. Additionally a ALS 1815 chrono. 👍
They’re definitely classy - and more dressy. The Duometre is a real spectacle when underway. Then again, so is the Defy 21 with the 1 second sweep. Unfortunately this has the most uncomfortable deployant clasp I’ve ever come across. I’m hunting down the c...
My wrist Is not large - just over 17cm with not a lot of area on the top. The problem I have is with the deployant - which is most uncomfortable. I’m looking to get the ceramic bracelet for this which has a double deployant which is way better.

I thought it would also be interesting for our friends at WristScan this weekend to hear more about your military Chronographs. Personally, I love military watches and find them fascinating. Thank you 🙏
Indeed there are a few. There seem to be more but I did not have recent pictures of them. And to be honest their use for timing things is so rare that few new ones join 😉🤷🏻♂️
Was the 150th Anniversary of Italy model, so it has the flag colors subtly integrated into the design. So a red strap felt appropriate to the piece 😊👍🏻

... will recognize how interesting this watch is. I also have an special place in my heart for the Snoopy 50 years. So charming!! And that caseback!! Great shots to share them! Hagwe! Abel
A lighter brown color would be better. I like the light browns better than white or greenish color of modern lume. I don’t think of them as faux patina but as a different and more warm and pleasant color for my personal taste. Probably influenced by my we...
Hello dear Art and friends, I hope everyone is enjoying the weekend. For this edition of WristScan I thought I would start with three of my favourite Chronographs from Patek Philippe… I’ll return later with a few more chronos from my collection Best regar...
. . . rare bird, it's the simplest route to owning a cal 861. Collectors clamor for early Speedies, but the same engine is under the hood of your DeVille. Sensibly, Art
