Thank you very much ...
For your kindly words.
A fact is: there are watches that easy to capture and others that are almost impossible to get a single good picture.
This Rattrapante belongs to the easy group.
Cheers,
Nilo
Note: The new handheld camera is great. Canon EOS M3.

Complications Wristscan begins now!
Hi all This week's wristscan begins now! As mentioned, please share your complications here with us. Complications defined as beyond "time only" watches meaning anything from Date to Power Reserve to Moonphase to GMTs/dual time/Worldtimes to Chronographs ...
Banker's watch
my "complication" watch is my GP World Timer Chronograph, FTC, a banker's watch that tells the opening hours of the major stock exchanges around the world. Here shown in the banker's capitol, the City of London CC ...
Hmmhh.. Let me see, what I can humbly chip in here.. ;))
.. My most recent arrival is the GP Traveller Sapphire dial with the following "smaller" complications : Grande Date, Moonphase, GMT.. The "en face" Sapphire dial with its blue hues, through lovely play of light & the slight tilting The grey dial with whi...
Big congrats hs!
The grey dial on this GP is really nice! Classic and timeless yet a twist of modernity I feel. Very well balanced Enjoy in the best of health my friend Cheers Robin
The big date itself is a class act
Especially without borders between the digits and the very quick changeover each day. Beautiful watch and a huge congrats on this one.
Ahh dear Hs! You really surprised me! I must confess...
... I didn´t know this model of GP!! Very elegant and no doubt an ideal traveler´s companion! This is for traveling with style for sure! How not to be happy with this arrival to your awesome collection? I wish you´ll enjoy it so much my dear friend! And h...
Hello CC !.. Great WT & lovely shot as well !.. This map as a bkgd really is very á propos !.. Also like that cream & grey colors .
A very stylish WT for sure ! Cheers & HAGWE ! Best, hs
Oh yeah definitely
More than suffice ! A great shot ! I love watches wristshots with the sea as the backdrop Cheers Robin
My obsession ...
Team, I'm hooked on Double Chronographs (a.k.a. Rattrapante or Split Seconds). In particular, this one from Omega that's a more traditional implementation (it uses two column wheels!!). Omega Speedmaster Split Seconds: Love the dial reflexes: It has a fee...
Split seconds !
A very high complication indeed. Thanks for the lovely photos Nilo. I think chronographs are so much harder to construct and are underrated as a complication IMHO. Especially split second chronos! Cheers Robin
Hi Nilomis you outdone it again....
your photos are unbeatable, the only thing I can compare your skills to is like Novak's Djokovic ATP ranking almost double points as the next player Best Edward

Almost all the week with this one on the wrist...
I also played with this one: HAGWE, All. Nicolas ...
Another one which is very dear to my heart...
Since 8 years and a half, now... Best, Nicolas ...
You really know how to photograph a PP UT at its best my dear friend!...
... fantastic picture of your beautiful example of 5110 Nicolas! Not to mention your Le Coultre DSA!! Both are true winners!! Hagwe dear Nicolas! Abel.
In honour of the astronomic timepieces ...
... that seem to have disappeared, with the exception of the moon phase, I'll show Ludwig Oechslin's Planetarium, realized by Ulysse Nardin: Marcus ...
Wow! I forgot these astronomical complications
They are so rare! Thanks for the nice pics Marcus! Cheers Robin
And just to have a wristscan ...
... here is the UN Perpetual GMT: Old pic, I know. Now this baby is already crying for service ... Marcus ...
Very nice!
Love the dial design and colors . Thanks for sharing these pics Cheers Robin
The complication in this shot is not the watches by them self ....
But what they represent. 4 generations side-by-side in one shot. HAGWE Blomman ...
To find gen 3rd and 4th is not that hard....
Even the 2nd gen is OK..... But to find the 1st generation in good condition is a "complicated" game! Best Blomman
Thank you, my friend!
For all help! But I would say 4 gen, the 8867 and 9076 both belong to the 3rd generation, IMO. Best Blomman
Wow Blomman you are so creative!
Well done my friend! Love the 4 gen shot! That is such a complicated photo shoot Cheers Robin
The photo shoot is easy.....
To fill it with all four generation is the complication! Best Blomman
Great assembly dear friend Blomman!! Sometimes to reach ...
... a collecting goal as this is very complicated indeed. Five watches representing four generations is not an easy goal for sure. And not easy watches to come by to boot! Well done my dear friend! Enjoy your watches and a nice week end!! Cheers! Abel,
Thank you, dear Abel!
Yes, it has been a loong hunt! But as they say, the longer the hunt, the sweeter the victory! All the best, my friend Blomman
Happy you like these, Edward!
After your Sinn, GP is a brand you should look into! Best, my friend Blomman
I did some reading...
about this brand in the past, I will study it a little bit more thoroughly, time permitting Cheers Edward
tnx!
Yes it is indeed a very intriguing complication. And the art work by Benzinger is not bad at all (dial & movement). Just FYI: that claw in the rotor represents the last name of Mr Van Der Klaauw (Klaauw = claw).
Only had it on the wrist for like 10 minutes
Until I had to give it back as they didn\'t accept my 1:1 exchange deal offer with my 15202. A man can try right?
Big congrats Chu
Looks great on your wrist! Bravo and thanks for sharing your new joy with us here Cheers Robin
Charles Humbert MR Chrono
Won this with Antiquorum Auction dated 2013 dec 11th also my birthday Amazing complication and workmanship back in 1889. ...
Ah my dear bro
I remember playing with this grand complication of yours! Superb catch! Cheers Robin
I Always happy to see this machine...
Do you like Greubel Forsey? GF is Also great pieces from independent watchmaker IMHO Have a great weekend... Ronald
Sometimes less is more!
Only one complication, but so subtle. Really like this new addition. Best, Tim ...
I was searching for the complication !
Very discreet date window indeed. Nice design! I like it Tim! At first I thought - is this a repeater lol Cheers Robin
Does what it does best
And hides the date so well, but legible when needed. Great stuff!
Hi Tim....
nice addition to your collection, I am positive that you will find the Sinn a great travel watch. Good choice congratulations. Best Edward
Thank you and yes it was a long time coming, very pleased to add and enjoy.
I will be in the tropics a great deal of the year and don't want to be concerned about water resistance!! Best to all, Tim
