Twelve years today since the first post on ThePuristS forum. So let's have a celebratory WristScan thread. It could be anniversary watches, pieces that have a connection to PuristS for you, a friendship watch or a piece that espouses the PuristS philosoph...
not quite the original purists watch as Haldiman did that, but the nearly original purists watch. what an accolade, to be the 'nearly' watch :) On 31 May 2013 01:04, "www watchprosite" *Alert from:* www:watchprosite > *Posted By:* flamenco (registered) on...

AP RO jumbo,, for its strong link between AP and The PuristS. This Polaris 65, because it is all about Community and firendship: This Reverso, because it celebrates an Anniversay, the Septantieme, to be precise: This GP, because it is typically a Puris...
.. Difficult enough for Humble me, But: - the honor is "heavy weight" , in a way, for a topic such as this; on the other hand the combination of treasures and spirits ( pun intended) makes it an enjoyable exercise ! And I realize there is intent for Doubl...
- Those virtues of the forum, friends and moments are strong medicine, especially when it counts.. Consider myself fortunate to have appreciated those friendly sides, also under wisdom guidance. Many will feel this way, I trust.. :) Thank you kindly, Nico...
This is what the PuristS is all about: 1) Humble and attainable: 2) Aesthetically pleasant but not flashy. My compliments to all that made the PuristS to born and keep going. A fantastical weekend to all, Nilo ...
Albeit a modern iteration. A representation of a personal PuristS Journey, thoroughly enjoyed! Enjoyed only because the journey was made in the presence of fellow passionistas! Thanks for the friendship and education! ...
A journey, the connection, personal sentiments .... That very first step in this great community ! Never looked back since ...... All is well and good ! HAGWE HS !
To me this is THE Purists watch. I do not have one myself but facilitated that my brother got one. Enjoy it Bim - I love to see yours in pictures from your adventures. All the best Nikolaj
With the strap you gave me my friend ... You should get one too :-) About this summer ... if i come it will be a last minute decision my friend :-) .. we have to repaint half the house (inside) .. and the other half outside ... . We will see .... Bim
...and all who have sailed in her - honestly: you don't look a year older than eleven! Andrew, it's a really big 'ask' to suggest that we show watches which reflect the PuristS influence or ideal: for many of us, that could be most of the collection! Sinc...
..with the exception of the Polaris, probably , at least for my relatively few years here ; The DSA(s) have a special meaning for me, that's for sure! :)) Thank you and best, D'Artagnan hs
.. Probably it is also right for first half of the 2nd thought: -- "requiring special skills" .. doesn't it ?? ;) [Could be self- healing, I concede, though, for the remaining idea ] .. But you are right, the more comes out of oneself, the more is added t...
...a philosophy of seemingly random horological tail-chasing, then thank you! :-) It would be remiss on this auspicious occasion not to thank PPro for the introduction to a like-minded kindred spirit in the form of a Melburnian moderator. Good times had: ...
We all ordered when the Northern Hemisphere was asleep. :-p It's been more than 5 years since our first GTG. We are overdue for our annual food, wine and horology overdose! Looking forward to more happy times as well. Warm regards, Andrew Ps. I found this...
The Gerber P10, as described by Andrew. The PuristS ABR The IWC GST Perpetual because it's the watch I dropped into a glass of water encouraged by Purists and it may now be said, some alcoholic beverages. On the wrist or on the winder, it has run non-stop...
Quietly registering in the background, following this important theme unfold.. Thank you for the honor and a big thanks to AndrewD for starting it off, so challenginly ( is that the word?) but making us open the boxes and imagination. Hence- marchons , fe...
that I first posted asking for advice. The watch I chose, ref 4860 Sadly, no longer in my possession, but replaced by one from my birth year Steel ref 2451 A happy journey so far. Ginger ...
... but I do like the Ref. 2451. That must have been a great year! Lovely to see, Ginger. Two years passed since we shared the anniversary dinner at IGOTT2. Time flies! Warm regards, Andrew
I've been lucky to cross many Purists on my collecting way and the least I could say is that I've met passionate, knowledgeable and friendly watch enthusiasts. To commemorate this special day, some Purists watches on my wrist and my static photo of t...
