My "trademark" watch. The Jaquet Droz Equation of Time. For many reasons, this is a very special watch. It was my first major purchase to celebrate the news that I was going to be a new dad. Also the gentleman from whom I purchased the EOT, introduced me ...  

I must admit :) I was quite sure that the other one from J*D placed peacefully on babies chest is the one Sincerely Damjan

The Paillonnee I purchased right before his birth...but the EOT started it all. Then when I had mad daughter, I reserved the Paillonnee for her. But then circumstances changed, I had to sell the Paillonnee :-( Thank you...especially for your postings whil... 

of that piece My daughter is mad as well :) In hope that we'll have J*D forum under your steady hand again I remain sincerely yours D

In my case I had to pay for medical bills...not for one but two (my "surprise" twins) Well worth the trade imho. As for J*D, I wish the best for the brand. Still very interesting stuff, but not the way I wished they would have gone. Best, Mike ...  

of a kid is worth more than any timepiece ever out there Yes J*D lost some of flavor unfortunately and I think regarding departure of Mr. Emch anyhow you have great kids and they bring happiness / joy no timepiece can Yours D

He had an artist's drive and focus. A lot of it was lost after he departed. I have no doubt that he was tired and mentally drained after running the brand. Glad to see him at the helm of RJ, where he has brought new life...to the point where now the desig... 

Yes, time passes quickly... You blink and it is nine years later! :) HAGWE Blomman

I was cleaning out the attic and found photos of myself in College... In hindsight I cannot believe that was 25 years ago. If only some of our watches could talk...I bet they would tell some interesting stories. Best, Mike

Either 65.... Or 68 (67 ;))... But maybe I would prefer to to be known by one of these.... :) What do you think would be the best fit for me...? HAGWE Blomman ...  

No message body

BlomoVlad?;) The Geophysic in white metal is better, the minutes hand on the yellow gold looks strange... on the picture! The Polaris 65 is gorgeous too. Perhaps in the future you be known for your GPs;) Cheers Francois from Down Under

On the RG has been replaced. Need to find a good one. Thank you, my friend! Yes, who knows a couple of years from now people may know me by by some GP's...! ;) Best BlomoVlad

You have too many jewels my friend!... Matt

My mind...! But the choice between these pairs are already hard... Let's not make it more complicated, my friend! ;) Best Blomman

HAGWE Best Patrice ...  

Happy to see this one on your wrist, my friend! :) Best Blomman

.. the Polaris 68 is always a great choice ! Wishing you all the Best and have a real great WE !! hs

Traditional, classic, vintage yet representing the best of its time. Times 2. I am sure you have the same personal qualitites :-) Best, Mike

I just realized you have passed the 4K mark. Congrats, thank you for your great contribution here! Best Blomman

Need to be more productive :-) Best, Mike

... beautiful timepieces dear Blomman. Though if I would be able to chose a favorite, that steel Geophisics would be my choice! Have a great week end my friend! Very cordially, Abel.

I have always favoured the RG. Long before I found one myself! Thank you, dear Abel! Have a great weekend, my friend Best Blomman

It definitely must be a Memovox, and I think the pair of Polaris, 65 and 67. are the ones that I first associate with you. You know yourself well. ;-) Best, respo

Yes, I think that is unavoidable here in this forum...! ;) Thank you, my friend! Best Blomman

.. How much better can it get ? - I tend to think, this is it, pretty much so ! The summit of the Divers/ Memovoxes on one hand & - Geophysic, the magic, the elusive - in two variants, on the other : SS & YG - In tiny, little envy, but veeery happy for yo... 

Thank you, dear HS! :) Last year I was lucky to Geophysic pair! I don't know if you have noticed, but some of JLC's watches from end 50's are not that "rose" inn the colour. But if you look at this photo, compare the index on the YG dial in the middle whi...  

.. I guess, the RG version is more desirable, anyway !.. - To double up the Geophysic - WoW !! .. That's perfect ! Therefore, even more sincere Congratulations - What a pair !! Again, my Best for this WE !! :) :) hs

Which one to choose, here... I really don't know. But, this week end, I will wear... This one! HAGWE. Nicolas ...  

I love this JLC repeater, super sexy. I recently tried on and orange and black one... :) Cheers Andrew

As if I would even ask ;) No it was a limited number of pieces of 6 or 8 I think... Will try and find the picture I took and put it on the forum. Cheers Andrew

Nico, This is the first of your pieces I remember from way back, that screamed Amanico... I can well imagine this to be a tough choice for you! Superb piece my friend. Cheers, Tim

Who can forget the Audi front shot...?! ;) HAGWE, my friend Blomman

transpires through the photography. Bravo sir. Cheers Francois from Down Under

Who cares with watches like this! HAGWE my friend, Best, -- Richard.

One that was expected and for many reasons absolutely appropriate Best D

since this question is liking asking you to choose which one of children do you like best :-) But I think that JLC minute repeater was on my short list of what I thought you would pick...or the Freak :-) Thanks for participating even though it was tough, ... 

Repeater! You know me well! ;) Best, Nicolas

... I was expecting to view some pretty GMT among your choices!! Lol! Well... no matter which brand or model of watch you chose, I am very sure you´ll always will be very nicely remembered by your family and friends! Have a great week end my dear friend! ... 

There are several JLC, UNs (Freak or Sonata) that I associate so strongly with you, Vlad, but I think you picked THE ONE. The MMR is so Vlad ever since the Lord of the Rings photo. Great choice for this topic and for your wrist today. Best always, respo

.. MMR -Ti , Many unique aspects for me, also a concept piece, which makes you think makes you reflect, I trust ; One of those, I pls love to see again, touch again, when we meet next time.. )Thus, pls amend the "For hs to see" - List ) Thank you for this...

Always a pleasure to see it. Cheers, Mark

all you need really! Cheers Francois from down Under

at least that is the one I will associate with you if I ever see it on another wrist! Warmest, Mike

But, given all of our long conversations and the many times I have seen you and what is most often on your wrist when I do, the EP Malte Perpetual Chrono is the "Joe" watch for sure. But I also know how that Lange resonates with your personality and passi... 

Orange!!!! But which one... The one I wear most of the time I guess and hold many good memories... Cheers Andrew ...  

We all know that we will remember by the watches with touch of "orange" and good choice! Ken

to Hublot, now they go for organic watches, environment friendly;) Cheers Francois from Down Under

but you have winnings shots again :) That first is stunning What's in the background? ladybug is winner for sure Marvelous Cheers D

Thank you Damjan for your positive comments! Just trying my hardest :) The first one is with grips from my golf clubs... yes you guessed it they are orange too... Cheers! Andrew

Of all the wonderful pieces you have in your collection, that was a surprise for me! Thanks Andrew, Mike

Nice topic, Mike! I bought myself a watch when I learned my first child would be born, too! :-) But I am not certain there's a watch I want to be known by. How about this: I would want to be known by the community of which I am a part! In that spirit, may...  

... great vintage are forever.... not to compete with the modern ones. Totally different world... Nice ones. Ken

.. nice timeless design pieces! Ken

Of all the watches created in recent memory as reissues or re-imaginings of their original pieces, the Legend Diver is my favorite. A great, modern take on the original vintage -- reliable and affordable! It's a fantastic watch! Hope you are well! Daos

Great to meet you here. Yeah, I got on the verge of pressing "enter" more than a few times about this re-issue - you know what I mean..... It looks that good - again, timeless design and great functionality.... So nice to talk to you, my friend! Ken

Find a reason to visit us again in LA! :-) Always good to "see" you, if only just virtually. Cheers, Daos

In my book, the best modern Longines, by far. Best, Nicolas

...since the original divers upon which the watch is modeled. I think the golden years of Longines, as far as my tastes run, were mid-'40s through the '60s. Cheers, Daos

i fully agree with you Daos. although i dont own and have no need for the LLD. the non date model is a superb re edition. as you saw i posted a couple of re editions, both of which i really like...except for the dates. i think the 24 hour works best as th...

On the top 5 of my list.... Best, Sister. Nicolas

Very large, and an impressive piece. I've only seen it in pictures. There are many cool watches from so many manufactures during that time period! Cheers, Daos

Exactly the spirit I was looking. SO jealous that you have Daos at work :-) you guys must have so much fun in between the long hours. And so jealous that you all have sun out...another snowy, grey day out in Maine. Which ever nato strap I wear outside tur... 

And it is almost always sunny, too! Best, CaliforniaJed

I don't think many other members (none that I can think of, at least), work in the same office with a fellow Purist. We can talk watches, and swap timepieces to check out the other's watch on-the-wrist, etc. It's nice to work alongside a kindred spirit! :... 

if there were a lot of ":couples" I wonder if any work will ever get done! Missing everyone is SOCAL Mike

My 1st VINTAGE, 1st ROLEX and 1st AUCTION. This watch introduced me to the world of eternal horological beauty that is VINTAGE. The PADELLONE totally transformed my collection. Which leads to my latest and most SEXIEST addition..............my NEW MISTRES...  

That can generate some serious damages to them! Best, Nicolas

with moon is stunning, I love that watch. The Daytona is not bad either. Cheers Francois from Down Under

in one's heart. Likewise,the EOT was the first watch I fell in love with and chose to represent myself and my son in the future. Mistresses will come and go, but that Rolex Calendar is amazing and no wonder you chose it to be your "trademark" Best, Mike

Is for me = Iceman! :) Best Blomman

My commitment to this padellone goes beyond the norm......... To prove my point.......... For those who dont understand what this car plat is about. ..... Rolex PADELLONE is REF 8171 Best Iceman ...  

... with your number plate theme, but you may be alone! Very cool idea. We have had a few Rolex tattoos over the years, but this one is special too. Andrew

Thats a great idea. Will post soon. Best Iceman

Love it! You are even more crazy than me! ;) Best Blomman

... and I'm not sure where you go from there. But a stylish pair and always great to see. Thanks! Andrew

Good for my wallet actually LOL Best Iceman

.. the Daytona with her compelling machismo looks fantastic: - Top of the crop & luxurious sportyness.. If I needed to choose one, I would probably go for the Vintage - Romantic choice, maybe.. - Great that you have both in your realm... Best, hs

Am just thankful they are with me Best Iceman

Great topic. HAGWE guys! GEO ...  

Love it

Charm, elegance and class. Cheers Francois from Down Under

When thinking Geo that's the piece that first comes to my mind Great shot You really nailed it ;) Best D

Seriously, that was an excellent read of my mind. When I see a Cartier Tank wristshot, I think GEO! Cheers, Mike

I bought this Cartier Mecanique to wear with my Father's "Buttons & Tac". These were made to match the watch that my Mom gifted Dad for Christmas 1955. My Uncle Art, a local jeweler and Omega AD, had the WG Lucien Piccard custom made with diamonds and...

the surprises that I was expecting. Its not always "the watch" its the memories of what is associated with the watch... Best, Mike

must agree 100% with your choice :) Sincerely Damjan

Interesting topic Mike! HAGWE, -- Richard. ...  

in your case "a flieger" of some sort. Wonderful surprise and a great watch Best, Mike

I think the most obvious for me could be a vintage diver: Eberhard Scafograf 200, 1961 But my latest arrival could fit the bill as well in the future: Eberhard Contodat, first chronograph ever with a date 1957, with just a touch of red! Look at these long...  

That Eberhard Scafograf 200 is sublime ! Great pictures too. Have to start my hunt now ! Dean

That Pocket wrist shot is so nice...how do you do that? Best, Mike

But for me, Matt = Diver! :) Best Blomman

.. Looks great, but the Scafograf - 1961 ( Wow !) not less.. The lugs you show belong to a bully piece, although not that dramatic en face ! In any way, thx for this interesting share, never seen an Eberhard Diver.. Best, hs

You have asked us to say "what watch you want to be known by". Well, it would be great to be known as the guy who finally managed to get his hands on one of these: (Dufour GS photos by Chronomania) Not much chance of that happening though! So, if you we...

In your mind??? Now, that's a destination for the brave! ;-) Cheers, pplater.

Beautiful to look at and missing it with all my heart The watch I mean! Cheers, Mike

...you did receive a "what are you thinking?!?" PM from a sympathetic soul when you put yours on the block. Hopefully you retained access rights. ;-) Cheers, pplater.

but the need was great and the sacrifice, painful at the time, was well worth it in the end for a happy outcome. (see photo above in response to Damjan) Warmest, Mike

That's a trade any collector would make. Good coherent collection you have there Mike - four high quality pieces with strong brand DNA. Have you closed that theme now??? :-) Cheers, pplater.

I say I need a new one :-) Never say never, Mike

the Philippe Dufour Grande Sonnerie is to die for, of course! However if you asked "what watch I wish to be known by" I would have to say...none! Although it is, I agree, a very subjective question, none would be the sum of all the ones I love, some I wil... 

Ever the philosopher! (But - wait for it! - you are right). :-) Cheers, pplater.

very wrong indeed for not having congratulated you on this marvellously beautiful, Christian Klings, what a jewel! There is only one think I don't like so much about.....and that's the fact that it is not on MY wrist! :) Bravo Sir! Cheers Francois .....

You are killing me Art :) :) :) Lemmy would sure appreciate this one ;) :) Among many touche lines from you this one tops them all :) :) D

No harm done I hope Word such in italics made my twisted mind glitch Sincerely D

No harm, no foul. Please don't sweat it. No-one could ever attribute a mean intention to either of you. Pax. Cheers, pplater.

. . . my reply to you and an unrelated lyric or statement attributed to Lemmy Kilmeister. Lemmy is not a member of this forum; he's a famous heavy metal musician. More via pm.

. . . a reply to pplater's query; his McGonigle is the watch I would associate him with. There's no reference to Lemmy at all.

You don't want to be known by that one, you know where to send it! ;) Best Blomman

Exactly the one I associate with you, Andrew. When I see this watch I think of you first and foremost. Best, respo

Yes, when i see this watch - I think of you, my frend! :) Best Blomman

dear Andrew You and that watch are irreversibly connected in my fond memories Best D

You went for the one in the middle. The fastest way to the heart is through the stomach.... HAGWE Bill

This is indeed the watch I know for you. Your posts on this watch are legendary, I learned so much from them... and quite honestly I am grateful to work alongside you virtually. Warmest, Mike

.. in addition to all that, absolutely splendid pictures ! This is a rare specimen, that humble me gets to see .. Thank you , therefore for the share here, Best, and HAGWE ! hs

will bring many interesting watches and most interesting histories behind them this week end. I had little to think about the watch I would like to be remembered with. I have no doubt this one WILL be the one all my family and close friends will remember ...  

.. and an excellent choice, my friend. Ken

... for us as parents, much better than the best of watches! I´m sure both you and your cute kid will surely treasure many memories around these two watches you show here! Have a great week end! Very cordially, Abel.

he wants my car more than my watch...how little does he know :-) (I'm not a "car guy" ) Best, Mike

it is the watch that first introduced me to the purists and the one that best sums up my unusual tastes. the watch in question is of course the UN Freak, #99. in its element, with friends and food overseas. i'm sure you can all name the friends, except pe...  

...  

I would have selected this one for you, as well. Best, respo

no regrets Nicolas, no regrets. best G

You made me think that perhaps current ownership is not a necessary a criteria for this theme. You owned it, obviously have fond memories with it and thus it remains a part of you, and perhaps one day it will return to your wrist. Warmest, Mike

to be honest Mike, if i couldnt have my #99 in RG then i dont think i would like another one. best G

.

I am having all kinds of fun reviewing everyone's selections. The watch I want to be know by is the Vacheron Constantin American 1921: There are so many reasons I feel particularly connected to this watch. It makes me feel like this: A couple of years ago...  

.. a timeless piece, indeed. Great choice. Ken

When I think of you, my friend.... But, on the other hand I think of you when I see the 1921 as well ! ;) Best Blomman

I would have nothing against being remember by Americano...who knows maybe one day if stars align ;) until then show yours as much as possible Best D

almost 180 degrees. Yes, I've always associated you with the EWC but we all change and I will make the change with you! All hail the American! Thanks for sharing, Mike

You've evolved a little, Respo, but the American 1921 is an appropriate choice. I have loved that watch since it was introduced. Nicely done. Andrew

However, I think I don't have this kind of watch Mike, even if the DB25, as an Indy, can try to come close to this definition. Your choice of a JD is a splendid choice as they are watches we don't see that often with a very unique character. As I can't st...

I wished I discovered Purists 9 years ago and could have joined this lovely gang earlier! 9 years ago I was just 26 and just got married with no money to collect watches then! :) Time really files. Now I know which watch to remember you by :) Cheers Robin... 

.. kidding! I was over 40 when I joined the gang - had normal life (meaning, no luxury, can't afford, etc...) until then, hahaha. Anyway, glad you joined after all. Timing is not so important! Ken

What matters is we have joined the gang afterall! :) Hope to meet you one day Ken in Japan. I love visiting Japan alot. :) Mike's post reminds me that time flies. I should visit Japan again soon before another 9 years fly by. Cheers Robin

Be sure to drop me a line! Ken

Will be (no surprises to many here) my Montblanc Villeret grand feu email chronograph. It started my love affair for the beautiful Minerva movements at Montblanc Villeret and also made me more curious and interested in the other lines of Montblanc watches...  

From this angle it looks really big! Best Blomman

Not that big.... my wrist is too small! But looking at it from the normal wrist angle it actually fits well. The traditional Villeret case with the hunter case back has a nice curve at the case back and the leather strap also covers the gap between lugs. ... 

Thank you, Robin. Well from that angle I thought it was much bigger! Best Blomman

dear Robin you are known for it ;) D P.S. First time I see this angle of that watch thank you for making me suffer more :)

Sorry the poison got to you. The curves of the side view and the THICK sapphire glass (like the old plexi glass days) are to die for! Traditional plexi glass look but with sapphire glass! Pure luxury Cheers Robin

The force is still very strong with you Nico! :) Cheers Robin

No worries, in our community, I think in a very short time everyone already knows you by this Villeret! HAGWE, Mike

I like your theme alot. Each member can now be associated with a watch dear to their hearts. Cheers Robin
