Both the Habring2 and the MIH are fantastic choices for the theme!

The WS for the 20th of November - ‘Incognito’ - is live
By: KMII : November 20th, 2020-06:10
I do apologize for starting this one late but the day was super hectic. Irrespective, here it is. Any watch that flies below the radar, that you use when you do not want the watch to be recognized. EDIT - now I have a moment to add on the post 😊 So here’s...
Hello dear friend KM!! So nice to have you hosting this weekend!...
By: Subexplorer : November 20th, 2020-06:28
Fantastic Theme you choose that I’m sure will bring lots of answers from our friends. I feel every one in our place own at least one “under the radar” timepiece to wear when required. Though being under the radar doesn’t mean that the watch is not interes...

... I specially like a WT complication watch which I find they have a special Magic and invite to daydream with travels, far exotic places, and discovery. You show a beautiful specimen of the Seiko WT here. I own a different reference with a similar dial ...
Wow! Abel...
By: Seeks : November 21st, 2020-09:22
a second Seiko World Time showed here! Well done landing this my friend. Stay safe.
This is what one calls epic!
By: KMII : November 20th, 2020-07:14
Both the watches are sublime and they are so apt for the theme 👌🏻 Although I have to say I would be hard pressed not to try and snatch that Tank 😂
Indeed 😊
By: KMII : November 20th, 2020-07:16
Sorry for the late start and the abridged entry post - the former I cannot help with but I did at least manage to add some details in terms of the latter 😉
Thank you!
By: fernando : November 21st, 2020-17:45
Great choice my friend...
By: Seeks : November 21st, 2020-09:20
Sharp capture of the razor sharp hands of a Grand Seiko ! Stay safe.
Thank you.

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : November 20th, 2020-10:55
Actually I would like to think that most of my watches can pass incognito as this is one of my main criteria for buying one I like having a watch where the specific brand wouldn’t be recognized unless from a purist! Well this is a subjective judgement so ...

. . . are ghost dials . . . . . . barely visible? 👻 PS - disagree about your foudroyante flying under the radar . . . its motion would make for an instant topic of conversation. ...
Depending on the crowd...
By: KMII : November 20th, 2020-21:01
That conversation might go, ‘Your watch needs a new battery’ though, as the Habring2 one combines it with deadbeat seconds 😉 Wonderful ghost dials, Art 👌🏻

I don’t think so...
By: KMII : November 21st, 2020-04:29
They are definitely sufficiently masked IMHO 👍🏻
These qualify for sure...
By: KMII : November 20th, 2020-21:03
Didn’t know you had the first one with a black dial, too 👍🏻 Four definite winners there, Watchonthewrist 👌🏻
Thanks my friend .
By: Watchonthewrists : November 21st, 2020-10:16
Wasn’t intent to add another NHC but i got a offer I couldn’t refuse 🤷🏻♂️.(or that’s something i told myself) this black dial looks amazing too . Also got a MoP dial for my Boss .
Agreed 😁

A wrist like that and everyone knows you are a collector!!!
Superb choices, Nico!
By: KMII : November 20th, 2020-21:05
You have just reminded me that I have a RCAF Breitling in a drawer somewhere in another country. With wrong hands and a movement in need of much TLC. Still need to find a watchmaker to take that one on...
Logo-less are perfect incognito !
By: Seeks : November 21st, 2020-09:30
Superb watches but the Breitling for the royal canadian AF .. is my favourite! Best regards and stay safe.
I don’t envy you
By: Brandon Skinner : November 21st, 2020-16:41
How do you ever choose what to wear in the morning? Must be an immense challenge.
Joining the Habring2 crowd with the TZ21
By: NT931 : November 20th, 2020-15:29
I love Habring2. They make great watches, with tremendous value, with fun complications like this jumping seconds TZ21. People think it's a quartz watch! ...
A real beauty, NT931 👌🏻
By: KMII : November 20th, 2020-21:06
Habring watches generally are superbly suited to this theme IMHO 👍🏻

And the grand seikos... All winners!
Superb choices all, Abel!
By: KMII : November 20th, 2020-21:08
Love the Olimpico, the Gilt Turtle shots are great (especially the pocket shot), and the GSs are great choices for staying under the radar 👌🏻👍🏻
The GP is right.
By: brauner : November 22nd, 2020-08:15
You have to look twice. But if you look a second time you will know there is a very very nice and good chrono. Like with many GPs

These are all excellent choices Halkcb 👌🏻
By: KMII : November 20th, 2020-21:09
And it’s true that the Presage dials often remain completely undetected, in spite of the fantastic materials and excellent execution 👍🏻
Thanks Abel
By: halkcb : November 21st, 2020-21:39
I have been enjoying the Credor ever since i saw it at the retailers and one of my lucky impulse buy!
Thks my friend :)..
By: S F : November 21st, 2020-18:25
I really like this iteration of the FF which exudes musculinity with the metallic polished bezel design.
Thks Abel!
By: S F : November 21st, 2020-18:22
Somehow, this is still the version of FF that speaks to me. Cheers!
Thk you dear hs!
By: S F : November 21st, 2020-18:27
This FF is my default 🥷 watch 😉.
Thanks Seeks!
By: S F : November 22nd, 2020-05:21
The FF works well anywhere ..

Hello KMII and friends ! I hope everyone has had a good week and looking forward to the weekend. Flying under the radar can come in many different forms ... Blending in with the surroundings ... Flying under the radar with this Hawker Harrier pilots watch...
Thank you KMII 🙏

By: hs111 : November 21st, 2020-05:08
Well, one of several occasions for the „stealth like“, the „under the radar“; a feature I like.. Low key, for the cognoscenti.. The MIH - something for the insiders, maybe To me indeed pretty much stealth like.. Habring2‘s Erwin, a fine time-only piece Pl...
A great theme for you, HS111!
By: KMII : November 21st, 2020-05:50
With superb Habrings, a lovely JLC and two perfect stealth specimen - the MIH and the o&j 👌🏻
Some great choices 🙂
By: jml_watches : November 21st, 2020-09:07
The Ochs & Junior & MIH wonderful pair of stealth watches. If you know, you know. Cheers JML
Nice ones! Stealth indies indeed.
By: NT931 : November 21st, 2020-23:23
I especially like the Habring Erwin Scientific. I sold mine earlier to a fellow collector in my country, and he later told me there were only 10 made. Now I know that one of the remaining 9 is owned by a gentleman with discerning tastes
Probably
By: hans_jorgen_1968 : November 21st, 2020-05:46

Two great choices 👌🏻
By: KMII : November 21st, 2020-05:52
The Flieger helps by being unmarked and the Seamaster is not one of the instantly recognizable models 👍🏻

Hello KM! Fantastic theme you have chosen for us!
By: Seeks : November 21st, 2020-09:06
Let me see.. A couple of watches come to mind. A Richard Lange in platinum and a Girard Perregaux 1966 small second with its quiet enamel dial.. pretty incognito unless we are in a GTG 😅 Best regards and stay safe 🙏 ...
happy hunting my friend

By: jml_watches : November 21st, 2020-09:11
Hi My Lanco Fon, doesn't even look like an alarm watch. Just need to remember not to set it or it's cover is blown! Cheers JML ...
Thanks 😊
By: jml_watches : November 22nd, 2020-12:25
The only caveat with them is that they appear not to be the most robust watches. It's also a struggle if you need to fix them. Great watches & have always liked their under the radar nature Cheers JML
Great theme, King!
By: Brandon Skinner : November 21st, 2020-12:46
My Habring2 COS is a stealth Chrono in the absence of pushers, but not quite as stealth as their COS ZM. Still a very fun watch and ingenious way to activate, stop and reset a chronograph. Next is a borrowed watch from fellow Purist Tim Jackson. If only I...
indeed!
