Want to travel again

to Papua New Guinea, here with Breitling in the Solomon Sea. Met Moses with his family on the water next to Tufi. ...
Absolutely fascinating.
By: brauner : April 19th, 2020-02:18
Next time - hopefully soon - will go to Rabaul and the near volcano.
Nice shots ...

My moment I want to re-live
By: Jurry : April 17th, 2020-05:45
If there is one moment of the past 12 months it is one very recent. It occurred in the middle of lockdown and would like to re-live it but then without lockdown On 23 March my first granddaughter was born and our daughter in law her self celebrated her bi...
Donโt like
By: Jurry : April 17th, 2020-05:49
And the one thing, the only one thing I donโt like of this forum is that the pictures donโt upload in the order I want to and that the two best pictures simply didnโt upload at all. ...
One day
By: Jurry : April 17th, 2020-11:47
And one day, when she has your daughters age, Iโll teach her everything g about wat heโs and photography
Very much appreciated my friend
By: Jurry : April 17th, 2020-11:46
And itโs such a grateful feeling if youโre in a position to buy something for your daughter in law with the message to wear it, enjoy it and hold on to it until that day she sees fit to pass it on to her daughter. But like the old Patek commercial but the...
Great news...
By: Cpt Scarlet : April 17th, 2020-08:45
Iโm so pleased that this has worked out for you and your family.
Thanks
By: Jurry : April 17th, 2020-09:11
The only thing still missing is that I can5 fly home so havenโt seen the baby yet. Since back home is The Netherlands, she will probably ride a bicycle by the time I get to see her for first time
Agree
By: Jurry : April 17th, 2020-09:46
No use in taking the risk now that weโve come so far with the family
A amazing story with a happy end .
By: Watchonthewrists : April 18th, 2020-02:26
I hope all this .... is over soon and you can enjoy your family to the max without restrictions ๐๐ป
Yep [nt]

She is gorgeous
By: ChristianDK : April 19th, 2020-23:43
not All newborns are beautiful but she certainly is. I can see her grand mother has a similar opinion ๐
Thank you
By: Jurry : April 20th, 2020-02:10
From the bottom of my heart for such kind words. Yeah youโre right, that look on my wifeโs face says more than a thousand words
Million thanks
By: Jurry : April 17th, 2020-07:07
I thought about it long and hard and decided to share it with my friends at this forum
Thank you my friend
By: Jurry : April 17th, 2020-07:05
And you know I mean that from bottom of my heart
Thank you sooo much my dear friend
By: Jurry : April 18th, 2020-09:41
Your warm words, as always express exactly my feelings. It is because of these special friendships Iโve built on this forum, that I decided to do just and share the full story. The support from all of you is heartwarming.
What a story!
By: KMII : April 19th, 2020-05:00
So happy that everyone is safe and healthy again!
Thank you very much.
By: Jurry : April 19th, 2020-05:15
Yeah itโs been quit stressful I might say. Hopefully the travel ban will be lifted in couple of weeks so I can fly home and see our grand child as well
Million thanks
By: Jurry : April 20th, 2020-02:17
Your support means more to me than you can imagine, tak tuzend tak When I was searching for the most appropriate watch I already quickly decided that Rolex would be the perfect brand. Our daughter in law wasnโt into watches when she became part of the fam...
the pleasure is mine Jurry
By: ChristianDK : April 21st, 2020-07:54
I gifted my wife a watch when we married 7 years ago. I had something like a Cartier or a reverso in mind, but I let it for her to choose. I took her to my AD in Hamburg who is a fantastic guy and watch adviser and he proposed a Datejust a little similaer...
Thatโs Rolex!!!
By: Jurry : April 21st, 2020-09:09
To many the name may be bit dodgy or not upper class enough. But Iโve never ever met someone who tried on a datejust and didnโt like it. And thatโs regardless of age and gender. Happy to read that your wife is still happy with it ?and apparently with you ...
Yes, I agree...
By: Cpt Scarlet : April 17th, 2020-09:00
But I think itโs going to be a long time for me.
Well, we have virtual tours....

Hello Sire!
By: K-Lo : April 18th, 2020-11:51
Yes, COVID has put some serious brakes on all of our travels huh? Well, here I am, hoping too, that we should venture out like migrating birds in short time.

At times like this Sir,
By: K-Lo : April 17th, 2020-09:03
JLC is a great choice for elegance but allowing a bit of understated luxury. Right now. Not sure I would be caught in public with a full gold Rolex, but at the same time, my wrist aches for mechanical wonders.
Peppers!
By: NT931 : April 17th, 2020-08:52
That makes the watch even hotter I suppose
Yes...
By: Cpt Scarlet : April 17th, 2020-09:02
Did you get my PM ?
Some great shots, Nico!
By: KMII : April 19th, 2020-05:03
The 5070 works quite well in the Nico of Arabia setting, too ๐๐ป๐๐ป
Looking forward, looking back: a tale of 2 vintage chronographs
By: NT931 : April 17th, 2020-08:08
Thanks FabR for the great theme of "moments that we look forward to living again". Since we've been asked to select recent pictures, I thought I'd pick two taken this week. The first picture looks back , and is a picture of a GP 8846 Olimpico that I bough...
Hear, hear!
By: KMII : April 19th, 2020-05:05

Canโt pass up your first WS, Fab.

It was a very special moment when my good friend Boo tried on my Chronometre Optimum. He did try to steal it later, though. ...
Ah - a friend called boo

Lange Manufacture Visit
By: ianny : April 17th, 2020-12:23
The pics were taken in Dresden about four years ago during my visit to the Lange manufacture. The first pic was taken after lunch and I am very sure coffee was involved somewhere. The bonding with fellow collectors and friends was especially memorable. Th...

Hi All One of my favourite watches - my Futurematic. So to be able to enjoy a day out with it while the sun shines - something to look forward to & something I've enjoyed in the past. Currently under the care of JLC & looking forward to having it back. Ch...

My favorite moment
By: Brandon Skinner : April 18th, 2020-14:05
I have the Corona virus to thank for! I hadn't been on a skateboard in 15 years but after two weeks of Quarantine with my 3 year old it was time to get creative. A quick call to my buddy to borrow his ride and a couple hours later, voila! My all-time favo...
Visited my home country right before the outbreak.
By: mj23 : April 18th, 2020-14:07
And glad that I had the trip and saw my family cuz who knows when traveling will be safe again. I also picked up this Eichi 2 during the trip. It was definitely a memorable trip. At Taipei 101, once the tallest building in the world ...
Here's a few of mine . . .
By: Dr No : April 18th, 2020-18:27
. . . from the last twelve months, Fab. Seamaster chronometer at Dodger Stadium. I'm piqued by the accidental capture of a fan wearing a Dodgers cap and jersey just above the Omega. Wrist shot of the humblest member of my vintage Omega collection . . . . ...
I've paid more for a Stones concert ticket . . .
By: Dr No : April 18th, 2020-20:16
. . . but never had a better performer. Off by a second over the course of a week . . . better even than the Genรจve chronometer, which is in the same ballpark.
Just wondering...
By: Brandon Skinner : April 18th, 2020-20:29
How many times have you seen the Stones?
Forty since '78 . . .
By: Dr No : April 18th, 2020-20:39
. . . and I have a ticket for another that will hopefully be rescheduled after being postponed.
Now these look fantastic - and definitely worth reliving ๐๐ป

Thanks a lot, Abel!

We will certainly learn to adapt and deal with the situation ๐๐ป๐ค๐ป Wishing you and your family all the best and to get through this safely and healthily ๐๐๐ป
Thanks a lot, Christian!
By: KMII : April 21st, 2020-01:00
All good at this end - of course being cooped up is not fun but as long as we remain healthy itโs a price worth paying ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ Hope the same applies to you and your family ๐ค๐ป
Great theme Fab!
By: ChristianDK : April 19th, 2020-05:21

By: Cpt Scarlet : April 19th, 2020-05:30
Good to see your family watch shot and your Nautilus looks superb. Unfortunately cancelling trips is all part of the current situation but we have to focus and plan for next year.
Thank you so much, my friend
By: ChristianDK : April 20th, 2020-00:24
Yes, I suspect it will be at least a year before we can travel freely again. At least itโs what the papers here are saying. I am praying for a miracle for this situation to go away.
Thank you so much, dear Fab
By: ChristianDK : April 20th, 2020-00:26
I think you nailed it with this theme. Everyone here can relate to this topic and we are all thinking about the past and the future right now! Excellent work by you ๐๐ thank you. Stay safe Best Christian
Thank you so much for your kind words, dear Abel
