Entranced by the new arrival
This just arrived yesterday evening. I woke up early today to take some preliminary pics- I so love the understated dial, and the heft of the platinum case.
I'll try to do a more complete review after a week on the wrist, but so far, this one has stolen my heart completely.

WristScan Free Theme 10th of August Starts now!
So, this week the theme is free, what ever watch you like to share! I will go with my "constant companion" this summer - the Rolex Explorer II. During whole July it was on my wrist (longest period of time the one and the same watch occupied my wrist since...
Watches worn this week, so far.
Cabestan Winch Tourbillon Audemars Piguet Maserati Millenary Vacheron Constantin Overseas Titanium Jaeger LeCoultre WW2 watch with 479 caliber Roger Smith Series Two Tudor Heritage Chronograph Bleu Omega with unknown Mickey Mouse dial in 14k. Jaeger LeCou...
Amazing collection for this week 👌🏻😘
That RWS and Cabestan 👌🏻🤤 def some winners here .
Finally going vintage!! Good to see, Horo . . .
. . . and, as another long-time Purist once remarked, it's remarkable how much satisfaction one can derive from such reasonable outlay. Oh, and your RS - ¡ay caramba!
Impressive for a watch that’s neither a GP nor a JLC :)
A great piece by any means and one that can easily be worn for a month non-stop Here’s my random selection: Have a great weekend! ...
Ah, the Minerva - the Alan Ladd . . .
. . . of watches. Compact, austere, but ever . . . . . . so striking. Vacation over? ...
Not quite, fortunately...
Given that one snatches only snippets of relaxation with small kids around, it’s helpful if the vacation is a bit longer. Still got till the 19th Thanks for the cool comparison, Art
Thanks a lot, CC!
See little need for complications during holidays Even the date is a drag since it needs to be set and then it tells you how far you‘ve still got...
Thanks a lot HS111 :)
The first is definitely one of the more intriguing pieces. Have a great weekend!
Yes, a non-Rolex Rolex...
I think that is one of the reasons I really like this one! HAGWE Blomman
On my wrist all summer so far.
Nato helping with the heat (and so is the incoming ice-cream!) All the best, ...
That's a JLC we do not often see here! :)
Thank you for showing yours here! Enjoy your ice-cream! HAGWE Blomman
Didn't have time to change this morning
Fredrique Constant Notify. For whatever reason the only vibration alarm watch I've found that reliably gets me up in the morning. ...
Interesting watch, never saw before!
Have you tried a ringing alarm watch such as the Memovox? Best Blomman
No, needs to vibrate
Sound alone doesn't do it for me unfortunately. Also the memovox alarm is much shorter. This thing pretty much goes until it's turned off.
You should try the Grand Memovox, there you may choose...
But the alarm will only last about 20 sec. Best Blomman
Just returned
Hi All So just had my Memovox returned after being away for six months, posted it a bit this last week - but some more seems appropriate to celebrate its return. Some more from earlier Memovox overload - if there's such a thing Cheers JML ...
Thanks - I'd started to miss it so it's good to have it back.
It's also a really nice size & good reminder that don't always need to go large! Cheers JML
Some day, we should have a theme devoted to our watchmakers . . .
. . . without whom we'd be totally lost. Here's hoping your Explorer returns soon, Blomman. Black Connie was serviced last year, but after slumbering practically all that time, wasn't running well at all. My watchmaker regulated her on Monday, and voilà! ...
Ohhhhh this one sets my heart a-flutter
Black honeycomb dial, crosshairs, arrowhead hour markers, no date.... classic, classy, killer!!
If I had to have only one watch . . .
. . . it would be Black Connie. Released to the West German market in '57 ten days before I was released into Los Angeles County ;-) . . .
Back again...
This has been on my wrist for about 6 months straight. The strap only gets better. ...and this one just came back from the watchmaker after som TLC HAGWE all! ...
Welcome B--A--C--K
That strap looks superb..... glad to see you enjoying that Explorer
Good to see you back, Claes!
The nato looks really good on the Explorer! Best Blomman
I need to go on vacation again...
My 5235G somewhere in Japan back in May. (Wow, the image compression does not treat the sub dials nicely.) ...
Here it is: my wife's watch
I haven't given it to her yet, her birthday is in 3 weeks, so I just wore it a bit this morning for my own enjoyment. ...
Free Choice? USA small, Medium and LARGE
USA: small, Medium and LARGE...… small Chopard Superfast Chrono Porsche 919 and Small Strawberry Margarita Medium Chopard Superfast Chrono Porsche 919 and Medium Steak Mac 'n Cheese and Colyard Greens on-the-side. LARGE Large Rack of Ribs and no space for...
OK, so let me see what to chip-in to play for this week.. :))
- One of my main choices this summer MIH - a cool companion Low key but always right FF Aqua Lung No Rad - Summer pleasure Best & HAGWE to all ! hs. ...
Fantastic Summer shots and watches my dear friend HS! As you may guess the Blancpain is my grail and each time I see yours I think ...
... again how much I need one in my collection! Hagwe my dear friend and thank you so much for sharing! Abel
Free Summer...Hot Summer
As this summer has been really hot and still is, I'm now at a point where not even bracelets or rubber straps are tolerable, only Nylon feels fresh... So why not combine a blue NATO with a blue dial Best, CC ...
It is, but this one it not a J Harrison dial :)
J Harrison dial always have the small seconds and 42mm case.
Haven’t played in a bit. So here I go.
A few summer watches in their element. HAGWE ...
