Hello friends! Our Theme this weekend is “Keep it Simple” and it is Open Now!!
Hello! I have the pleasure of hosting this weekend. As I previously announced our Theme is: “Keep it Simple!!” and I’m asking our participants to share with us their time only watches. No complications this weekend. Just watches displaying hours, minutes ...
Simplicity with style …
Hello dear Abel and friends ! Starting with the watch I have on my wrist today .. Back later ! Best regards Captain ...
"Simplicty with style" is an exact description of this wonderful CK 859. I feel it is now "a community watch" here as it is owned by several of our members (me included).
I´m expecting many entries including this superb offering from Omega introduced early this year and phased out of production so quickly as surprisingly. Thank you for sharing dear Captain! Best, Abel
While I love base 44 mm Luminors, Radiomirs especially 232 are fantastic choice for perfect KIS watch.
Have good weekend everyone. This beauty spending weekend on my wrist ! ...
Hello dear Ajas! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful Pam 232 a so coveted reference among Paneristi. Though in your picture dial is black it is actually brown which makes it...
... so special. Agree with you that the minimalistic dial and no seconds condiition makes it the perfect KIS choice. Also agree that the 44/45 mm sizes are more comfortable for many owners but this full size 47 mm Radiomir cases wear so well probably due ...
It's hard to choose because I like "simple", but
among my collection, my 60-year-old vintage Rolex 1024 won as the simplest. I was debating about posting my blue-dial Bulgari Octo Finissimo, which is definitely simplicity with style looking very stylish. I chose the Rolex, though, because it is so simpl...
Hello dear Ron! Your 1024 Rolex fills the Theme at perfection! Beautiful, elegant, simple classic dial, no date complication, just hour, minutes and seconds. Lovely watch. Great choice!
Guess your Octo Finissimo also deserves to be shared if you wish. It also ticks all boxes in high style and you may share with us more than one watch if you wish. Thanks a lot for your entry. Hagwe! Abel
Really struggling to find a few time onlys.
I didn’t realize how many I had with a date window! Here’s what I found. Forgot that the Streamliner was a time only until I went through them. Had a few that almost made the cut - but one had a power reserve indicator and while a tourbillon isn’t strictl...
Stunning array of KIS timepieces you share here Timeout!! The awesome Piaget fills the Theme perfectly. I understand you: I found many of my simple watches had a date complication and ...
... I preferred to discard them from the choices. Also those with a power reserve indicator. Regret to say I don´t own a tourbillon but agree too that its presence could raise the question about if it is or not a "complicated" timepiece. Lol!! I´m special...
Many thanks Abel.
The Piaget doesn’t get many outings but it’s a cool watch for sure. Similarly the Vacheron is struggling to get out lately. The Moser and Panerai are both real beauties in the sunshine as you can see. Great theme this week - made me stop and think! ...
Many thanks.
I lusted after this dial - and struggled to get it since it was released pretty much in the middle of the COVID pandemic. Still not available from Moser for the time being. I must say that the Vantablack Tourbillon is stunning too - same size as this one....

It was my understanding that they weren’t discontinuing this model.
The issue was that they had so many orders that production for the next two years was already spoken for so they have stopped taking orders (this was based on discussion with Edouard Meylan and Nicholas Hoffman). The website lists it as “unavailable”. Mos...
They told me during last GWDs that this one is discontinued and a new model will replace it . Don’t have any further details .
We just have to wait and see and hope it will be just as amazing as yours
I can guess why😂. I don’t have quite the strap collection that you have!
But I do swap out with my Cornes De Vache is SS - the stainless and white gold buckles are indistinguishable!
Many thanks.
Yes - it’s the white gold Traditionelle small seconds - a simple beautiful watch!
Ah, that's what I thought. Thank you.
I was enamoured by the patrimony traditionelle in platinum once, but the stars never aligned for that one.
The Patrimony Traditionelle is one of my favourites! Love yours!
I have the grey version too and it is a classic dress watch. Perfectly sized at 38mm, sexy cal 4400, and very understated and classy.
Here my simple no complication watches shared in the opening Poster…
Starting at left and clockwise: Longines Calatrava style steel 36 mm case ref 4914-32 from 1956 movement 12.68 Z Omega Chronometer ref 2367-8 from 1946. Legendary movement 30-T2 happily ticking inside. Universal Geneve first series of 1954 marked Polarout...
I do like your Longines and 828.44!
And especially that CK! 😉 Well, I like all of these pieces, if I must be honest! 😆
Those time-only jumbo vintage watches are superb!
The Omega 2505,and particularly the Longines 4914, where the case is curvaceous yet assertive. One of my favourite vintage Longines references!
Thank you so much for your kind comments dear NT931. The Omega Jumbo is very special to me. A present from a good friend and superb watchmaker regrettably passed away a few ....
... years ago. It´s an understated watch which I often wear and reminds of my good friend. Agree with you about the old Longines. Another favorite of mine and a lucky find some years ago. I´m happy you like them! Best, Abel
Dear Abel, I love your theme so much this week-end because I must admit I am down quite a bit to time only watches as they have been the focus of most of my recent additions
Here are a few pictures of the ones I am currently enjoying! ...
Hello dear friend Yacomino! Thanks a lot for your awesome array of K.I.S. watches and great shots to share them. Not an easy task to choose just one favorite here. Of course the...
... CK 859 was an expected entry this weekend. But the two modern Longines are big contenders. I´m specially fond of the sector dial one. The Pam 422 is another of my favorites. Nice to view your Reverso. Specially striking looks with a Jubillee bracelet!...
Thank you dear Abel for the very kind words.
Several years back I thought my horological happiness would come from complicated watches, but I could not have been more wrong! Simple is beautiful! Warm regards, Yacomino.
You are welcome dear friend. Complications are nice to own and enjoy but sometimes simple watches give us great pleasure in their clean and minimalistic designs and ...
... dials. Both KIS watches and complicated ones have a place in our watch boxes! Keep enjoying your wonderful collection my friend! Abel
There is something about time only watches that makes them shine!
Though your VC is certainly very grand, looking at this part of your collection it is easy to notice just how different, unique, and beautiful they all are. Each standing tall in their own light.
Lol. There're so many!
But judging from your taste, which seems similar to mine, longines and omega wouldn't be remiss. Specifically, longines 'tre tacche' and omega dress watches from the 1940s and 1950s. Before a certain time, they had no reference numbers and were known by t...
Thanks for a great theme Abel -- simplicity and sophistication are two excellent concepts that can get along really well in my view...so I'm sure we'll see some interesting (and perhaps rarely shown) gems from our members' collections this weekend! :-)
Your thread immediately brought back to mind that, a couple of summers ago, I suddenly rediscovered this lovely Patek 5124G....which I had purchased back in 2010, but for some inexcusable reason, almost never wore until recently! Possibly also for its fla...
Hello dear friend Fabrizio!! Thank you for your post. I´m happy to know you like the Theme and absolutely agree with you: simplicty and sophistication can get along.
Probably Italians are unique in having an special word for this concept and attitude with "sprezzatura” isn´t it? Gianni Agnelli and many Italian cinema actors come to my mind as example of this word. In any case you are a good example with you fine taste...
Many thanks for your kind words my friend, "sprezzatura" (though probably a term more used in English than in Italian :-) is indeed a good word here! Not sure about myself, but definitely many Italians are known for a natural, good sense of style! :-))
Gianni Agnelli was of course an icon in this (and many other) areas --- he will probably remain unmatched for his unique elegance Looking forward to seeing Boccadasse (and the rest of Italy) very soon, I'll be heading back for the Christmas break in exact...
You are welcome dear Fab. You surely deserve them.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It is true Italians have a natural sense of style and good taste and it is evident when visiting a big city like Milano and viewing so many elegant ladies and gentlemen passing by. I’m happy to know you are returning t...
Many thanks Chrono, those eel shoes are totally among my favorites! :-) The 5124 salmon is a Patek I'd definitely recommend, I believe several of our members have one --- not to mention that you'd be able to do marvels with your strap selection!! :-))
The entire (men's) Gondolo line has been retired, so if interested your only way would be a secondary dealer or another collector (I might be wrong, but wasn't Member Age_Of_Surfaces / Rosneathian considering selling one recently?). While I never buy seco...
Except that we had of course a few 5124 dials and metal colors, I honestly don't recall anything relevant re differences in production (but I can go back and see if I have something more, as I bought mine as one of my first Pateks, in May 2010 :-)
An interesting thing in my view was definitely the beautiful shape movement, unlike earlier Gondolo iterations with round movements (which you'll easily identify by the closed case back ;-) Cheers. ...
Such a sweet treasure especially with the salmon dial!
I am overdue to another trip to my local Patek AD to make sure he does not forget about me for my first Patek! ☺️
