I think our posts seem very related in a way, sharing many emotions and thoughts. At least I could fully relate to your post and pictures. Take good care, dear friend Best Christian
Dear Friends, this weekend's WristScan, " Our favorite recent pictures: moments that we look forward to living again, " is officially open! As announced yesterday, any watch-related pics taken during the past 12 months, that you personally find special or...
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...
And the one thing, the only one thing I don’t like of this forum is that the pictures don’t upload in the order I want to and that the two best pictures simply didn’t upload at all. ...
And it’s such a grateful feeling if you’re 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...
The only thing still missing is that I can5 fly home so haven’t 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
I imagine that these had been very complex moments to live: the mix of happiness of receiving a new born with the concern for the positive covid tests, and the impossibility of meeting your grandchild immediately. The radiant face of your wife as the gran...
Your warm words, as always express exactly my feelings. It is because of these special friendships I’ve built on this forum, that I decided to do just and share the full story. The support from all of you is heartwarming.
Yeah it’s 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
I can imagine dramatic and conflicting emotions of both joy and happiness, worrying and longing. I’m really happy to hear the health issues have smoothed out so it more a question of time before you can meet your first grand child. Yes, I really, really w...
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 wasn’t into watches when she became part of the fam...
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...
To many the name may be bit dodgy or not upper class enough. But I’ve never ever met someone who tried on a datejust and didn’t like it. And that’s regardless of age and gender. Happy to read that your wife is still happy with it ?and apparently with you ...
... Probably because travels (specially to far places from our own home town) is a reflex of our personal freedom which is presently compromised by the Covid problem. I wish this will end soon and we will be able to resume our trips Over Seas! Stay safe a...
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.
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.
... their glory. I wish you will be able to fully enjoy them with full freedom and safety as in old times very soon my friend. In the meantime stay safe and with good health my dear friend! Un abrazo desde las Pampas del Sur mi buen amigo! Abel
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...
The infamous “red” shots... red galore for everyone 😂😂😂 I wish you all a super weekend my friends, always safe Ops sorry, it took me several (actually too many) mins and for some strange reasons my connection got lost... tomorrow I’ll try to publish my re...
While strolling in the quest for some horological content something weird happened this morning I found this article on Watchville, and dear Fab I had some trouble in figuring out the reference of the watch figured in it, can you help me? 😂😂😂 Out of this ...
del “CAZ20...” 😂😂😂 Trust when I saw it this morning I understood this could be a funny Sunday... look at my “porn” thread... 😱😱😱 Un abbraccio amico mio, always safe, healthy and happy Ciao Luca
... so handy! And all pictures are taken just for fun too! I like your shots and watches. Just keep shooting and enjoying. Thank you so much for your kind good wishes. Same to you my friend! Abel
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...
... your post before posting mine! Thank you! I love your first shot so much. It brings a very relaxed feeling while viewing it with your superb Pam 249 on wrist. I wish you and Mrs Scarlet are doing well and staying safe my dear friend! Hagwe! Abel
... duties as our house is so big and have no help available nowadays. I can help her only on week ends on that as during the week I need to stay at office for some hours. But moral is high which is something we all need in these troubled days. Thank you ...
... showing you as a young cool and trendy man who knows how to enjoy the good things of life. No need to say that the arrival of Covid19 has drastically changed our lives. And in my personal case what I miss the most is the freedom of moving around the p...
I’ve probably spent more time doing WhatsApp and Zoom video calls this past month that in my entire previous life..but the pleasure of meeting people in person for me is just irreplaceable!😉 Let’s keep hoping and praying the world can reopen soon and safe...
You obviously have a lot of very good friends ;-)) ... The Panerai on your Grandson’s wrist looks like a 56mm special edition . Keep well and stay safe. The Captain
... and of course allow for superb backgrounds for our watch shots. That racing dial Speedy is wonderful! I wish Omega will launch a new version of that dial with the "new" 321 movement some day soon. Hagwe and stay safe my dear friend! Cheers! Abel
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...
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 ...
. . . 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 . . . . ...
. . . but never had a better performer. Off by a second over the course of a week . . . better even than the Genève chronometer, which is in the same ballpark.
Let’s see... Picking up a grail watch... Matching the watch to the safety belt on aircraft... or flying more generally 😉 A refreshing swim in the Far East (and some seafood after 🦞🦀)... The sea more generally... Proper winter in Siberia (this was Kazakhst...
We will certainly learn to adapt and deal with the situation 👍🏻🤞🏻 Wishing you and your family all the best and to get through this safely and healthily 😊👍🏻
All good at this end - of course being cooped up is not fun but as long as we remain healthy it’s a price worth paying 🤷🏻♂️ Hope the same applies to you and your family 🤞🏻
I love this fun and crazy introduction you made. That’s why we love you my friend! My entry for the weekend More than anything, I miss traveling will my small family. Not the best picture but I hope you sense the spirit. Visiting my best friend who lives ...
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.
Yes, I suspect it will be at least a year before we can travel freely again. At least it’s what the papers here are saying. I am praying for a miracle for this situation to go away.
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 👍😊 thank you. Stay safe Best Christian
... with much freedom up to a few months ago. I wish better times will return soon my friend. Keep safe with your family now! Best wishes and cordial regards, Abel.
I think our posts seem very related in a way, sharing many emotions and thoughts. At least I could fully relate to your post and pictures. Take good care, dear friend Best Christian
