thanks, Nico...
...yes I got it very recently. this one just came by very incidentally and acquired it without further thoughts as I have been thinking to get one PC, but have not been able to decide whether to go for JLC PC or other brands. at the end, i decided to chose this simply because its readability of the dail and beautiful finishing of the movement.
Have a good weekend, mate.

Too familiar I afraid :)))
This fish used to swim around your neighborhood ... ... until it got into the Atlantic Ocean Thanks again my friend. Regards Tyler
That is what I thought. You caught it in Paris, then.
And you've hidden it for a long time!
Actually "SPOT" it in Paris but
took the fish 3 months to "swim" here I didn't hide it. Only not show it until now Actually the truth is I been lazy to take photo. PS I like your pool better than mine. Yours got big fishes, mine only leeches Regards Tyler
I did a double take
But it is toooo vintage to be the Re-ed... version. Sweet. I would live to see pics side by side with the re-edition. HAGWE Bill
The Deep Sea Vintage Chrono is not a re edition of the Shark, my friend.
The DS Vintage Chrono is a kind of science fiction Vintage. Best, Nicolas
This is something that I always wonder ...
Why some watch manufacturers, and other areas of work, are very shy to do a clean re edition of past glories. It's rare to see a clean re edition and, that is my source of wonder, when this happens, the watch is a success. Examples: Longines with the LLD,...
Because this DS Vintage Chrono is NOT a re edition of the Shark.
It is not a re edition at all. It is a fiction. Therefore, when a re edition is released, you will always have people thinking " Hey, these re editions are the evidence the brands have no imagination ". When they don't go for re editions, people os thinki...
Agree, Nico. The Manufactures are in a difficult position ...
... as there seems to be two schools of thought on re-editions. But is long as there are enough buyers on both sides of the fence they can be content that they are supplying the market with good product. A
Thanks.
I love this piece since many years ago. I never think it's possible until I saw it last year. PS U got mail Regards Tyler
This is 1st for me.
On the contrary I died many times over your collection Regards Tyler
Another great shot...
... Comparing with other vintage JLC chrono, this is the best one to pick up. Nice choice indeed. Stefan
Going Green for St.Patricks Day...
Wishing the Irish Happy St.Patricks Day. Wish I had the luck of the Irish at golf this morning.A few of my puts lipped out and I was given a Mulligan on the first tee after an errant drive. HAGWE all. Cheers,dreamer Going Green for St.Patricks Day...

In honour of our Graham...!!! ;o)
A chance to take a few more pics on a day off... I'm on a long relaxing weekend so I hope everybody else has a great weekend too Andy....
i cant remember the last time i saw one of those notes Andy
your far too well paid for your own good best matey G
I use them as pillow filling...LOL...
my mum never knows what to get me for birthdays so she sends me these and I keep them as a momento from her...but I had to exchange them today for the new style note so took the opportunity to honour you Mr 50 quids The bank don't get many either as these...
Hey, Andy!
I patended my " banknotes shot " already! Funny picture, my friend! Best, Nicolas
It's where I got the idea my friend....
then I thought of our friend Mr 50 Quids LOL Andy.
That's the one....
great pic of a great piece. I'm on holiday yesterday and today so I thought I'd have some fun with some pics Yours my friend, Andy.
my favourite JD Josh.
i think they do a totally black one which would be the one i would have if i was that lucky. best G
i'm going through my watch boxes and wearing some not worn for ages
i've worn 6 different watches this week. today i'm wearing a pair of seamasters, a de ville auto and a 30 handwind. have a great weekend everyone G...
thanks big boy, it is...
thanks big boy, it is a much underrated watch. a simple handwind, but looks good. you should empty your pillow case and get into vintage pieces. you'll find a whole new world open up for you. see you soon Moi
Love these old cute Omegas Graham! Just a shame they ...
... don´t get a more frequent wrist wearing! Well... I know... it always happens with a collection! Enjoy them this Friday! Best cordial regards, Abel....
thanks Abel. i wore...
thanks Abel. i wore a gold filled US cased cal 560 and a Doxa dead second the last couple of days. i've forgotten what i wore before that i'll get through them all eventually. best G...
My pleasure Graham... you made me feel like changing Rolex for Omegas ...
... next week. I got a few with some months passing since I had them on my wrist last time! Have a nice Friday! Kind regards, Abel.
thanks Stephan, i know...
thanks Stephan, i know i should, but i'm sure your the same as me. when you buy a new one you wear it a lot and some of the others get neglected. i have a resolution to change that. best G
thanks Blomman, funnily enough...
thanks Blomman, funnily enough you cant see the texture on the wrist, it only seems to come out in photographs. best mr fifty quids
thanks Damien, it was...
thanks Damien, it was more than a couple, but not many more. i really should wear it more if i get this many comments...
I was just kidding of course about the
couple of 50s but if it wasn't many more 50 quid notes, boy that's a good find. It really is a good looking watch.
It's nice to mix it up, Graham ...
The last few months I have been wearing single pieces for several weeks to really bed them in. But there is fun in gratuitously wearing multiple watches. Serial monogamy? A
i've got into the habit...
i've got into the habit of always wearing 2 watches unless i'm going somewhere where people might notice and make comment. i see no issue with it and it ensures that more of them get worn. i usually mix up the styles, but for some reason i've got 2 seamas...
Eagerly waiting for a nice Friday...
... and a calm week end. Just to balance a better to forget week! Feeling in the mood to fly low and easy, with my T-Bird Have a nice Friday and a great week end, friends! Kind regards, Abel....
Dexter Morgan? Ah! You couldn´t have imagined...
... a better comparison my dear friend! Lol. You´ll understand. I´ll explain you some day, in a PM, before we meet. You know: nobody should know the safe place where I keep my blood samples! Have a great Friday buddy! Tu amigo de las Pampas! Abel.
So we should soon share a bottle of blood... Eerrr, wine. :)
Jodido pero contento, come se dice por aca. Best, Nicolas
Yes, a nice bottle of ... ehem... red wine Nicolas!...
... to celebrate that I am here, jodido pero contento! (I was drinking a cup of Coke while reading your message, and almost spilled it over the keyboard when reading it my friend!) Un abrazo Nicolas! Gracias por tus ocurrencias!! Abel.
Vlad, you mean you watch
Dexter too? Surely not to understand blood splatter patterns?!
i watched the first series,...
i watched the first series, but after that it was pretty much the same every episode so i switched to Bones.
i really like that Thunderbird...
i really like that Thunderbird (or turn-o-graph ), it would be a Rolex i'd be proud to wear, but SS with gold bezel would be my preference. for now i just manage with a simple non date oyster. G
Thank you Graham! Glad you like it...
... Yes, its true an steel and gold bezel example offers a more tranquil image on the wrist. You may find my other TOG in that configuration in my post about Thunderbirds. They got quite a different personality indeed. Always a beautiful and under rated r...
Shining like the sun
This one has to put a smile on your face and ready you for a great weekend. Best Bill
Beautiful ...
"Que rico" Abel, Even considering that gold watches are not my "cup of tea", your T-Bird is gorgeous. ¡Saludos! Nilo
Which came first
Dis you pick the clothes to match the watch or the watch to match the clothes. Great looking combo. HAGWE Bill
Brilliant composition . . .
. . . with double chrono sub-dial rings matching the similar stripes on your cuffs. Well done, Davo.
Tribute to Marine Chronometers, from U.N.
While the Cal 118 has just been unveiled, honors to the former and discontinued Cal 160, housed in an atypical watch... Really atypical: Ulysse Naaardin in its natural environment: A Morrocan Palmtree. Best, Nicolas...
That´s a true beauty Nicolas! I love ...
... everything in this watch: case, the blue dial... wonderful contras of blue dial, silver case and natural background! Must have a great presence on your wrist! Un abrazo mi amigo! Regards, Abel.
That is the kind of watch which belongs to the category of
Watches which were not love at first sight. I even hated it when I saw the first pics, in 2006. Till I saw it in the flesh, in February 2007, at my AD... Since this moment, it is part of my collectiion. Just love it! Best, and gracias para tus palabras, A...
Thanks, Vinontre.
It was the only one to house the first in house movement from U.N... Best, my friend. Nicolas
Thanks, Blomman, but just an advice...
Do never open the U.N box, it looks like Pandora's one... You will become crazy, my friend. Best, Nicolas
Was it taken in you bathroom ?
Must be hot in there. I noticed you frequently show us uncommon watches, even when coming from well known brands, the watches you went through must be worth discovering Nicolas. Thanks for this week's choice ! Best, Mark
Something unusual happened ...

Gracias amigo...
I'm hooked on reflections. For my non-watch pic, I'm always chasing a good water mirror. Cheers, Nilo
Nilo...
I like the reflection of background on your dail, very interesting, nice effects! Stefan
Thank you. Everything started with this pic ...
Captured, believe it or not, with my trusty Galaxy SII (Mobile phone with the best camera that I know). The app used to capture was the great, and free, Camera 360 (for Android, of course) Don't know why, but this pic reminds me (far far away) the looks o...
i really will have to...
i really will have to try camera 360 out Nilo. if you can do pics like this on the same phone as me then i'm sure i can do something. G
I see what you mean about the
resemblance with the van Gogh brushstrokes... Fantastic capture with a mobile phone cam... but I suspect that this kind of picture is not entirely done by the hardware, Nilo Nikolaj
Moon base Alpha! :)
As always stunning photos and carfully selected backgrounds... Hope you have a great weekend, my friend! Blomman
