They never come up! That's the problem - black dial variants are rarely seen . .

Here three watches in my collection which never fail …
By: Subexplorer : May 27th, 2022-03:56
… to bring a big smile in my face when wearing them! My Rolex Submariner ref 1680 Red. This oldie reminds me my far youth in the mid 1960’s my early love for Rolex brand, my passion for becoming an Scuba diver and everything related to the U/W world. It a...

Tremendous start to WristScan der Abel. Three that definitely made me smile just thinking about the combination. The vintage Red Sub is legendary and the Moonshine is one that got me as soon as I first looked at it. As for the Flightmaster, friendships ar...
Well.. Let me see, of how to play within the boundaries of the theme..
By: hs111 : May 27th, 2022-13:14
So here my three choices ( tough call to decide within my stables); One caveat though: As so many here, I’m convinced, that most of us have a number of tic-tacs, which really make us smile.. For Humble me , to name a few, such as the Vintage Rolex 6542, m...

By: hs111 : May 28th, 2022-08:50
It’s a pleasure for me, that you liked my choices for your stimulating theme. - You are right, that it sometimes is not too easy, to really select just very few, here 3 tic-tacs, but it was an almost educational selection to pick them out from a whole num...

Thank you so much dear Watchonthewrist for your wonderful entry!
By: Subexplorer : May 27th, 2022-17:07
Yes, I suspected that most of our participants would own several (many) smile provoking timepieces that’s why I challenged with a three watches limit! Lol! Nice watches you choose here: the MeisterSinger is a watch I have in my wish list and will enter my...
Ich geb without looking at the pictures…

I would have guessed two out of the three chosen ones correctly 😁 Good reasons, why they make you smile, too - actually the best ones 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Smiling watches 🍾

Ceramic, metal, rubber…. Still sporty after all these years, in spite of its own luxury baggage The thrill of a chronograph at high speed Red text Daytona catches the light Casual Taking the happy face theme to ridiculous extreme… 🙂 ...
Stunning shots to share these two “Smile makers” dear Stoikos!!

Hello dear JML !! Thank you so much for your superb entry!
By: Subexplorer : May 27th, 2022-18:17
Three nice watches ! Your lovely Swatch confirms my thought I have mentioned several times: it’s not necessary to spend big bucks to own a watch which is enjoyable to wear and which brings us big smiles! Your Poljot beautiful blue dial starting your alarm...
A great, diverse trio…

Showing that there is pleasure all over the watch world, and that our experiences with the watches are more important than anything as profane as pecuniary value 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Dear Abel, all 3 are superb!
By: S F : May 28th, 2022-10:29
Your 1680 Red sings the loudest to me with a great story and such pristine condition. And you took great pics of the charmer! Have a great weekend! My top watch will be the 1675 Gilt PCG exclamation. I am late into Rolex and one particular ref that intrig...
Helo dear friend S F! Thank you so much for your kind comments…

… on my 1680. It is interesting how that little red detail makes a difference. Thank you for sharing your three smile makers. I feel the early 1675 pointed guards, minutes rail and dot is among the most beautiful and interesting vintage GMT. Yours is in a...

Hello dear Captain!! “Smile and the whole world similes with you” …
By: Subexplorer : May 28th, 2022-16:37
… a big truth!! And a great selection of smile makers you share! Agree with you that the Speedmaster Snoopy is such a charming and lovely watch. You can’t avoid a big smile when viewing its caseback !! Same can be said of your Timex Snoopy. Such a cute ch...

By: RabidManatee : May 28th, 2022-15:24
Old reliable… always a great companion. How can a bright yellow diver not make you smile..? And the “new guy”, which is fast becoming a favorite. I’m beginning to understand why it’s such a classic. Have a great weekend everyone (and enjoy the extra day o...

I absolutely love this watch, a real tool watch !
An orange Doxa is a watch I’d like to see in person.
By: RabidManatee : May 28th, 2022-19:43
The Seiko is fun but it’s a pity it isn’t more accurate; I’m too OCD to deal with 15 secs fast per day, especially when the movement doesn’t hack. Yes, the Reverso is cool. I’m thinking about strap options (one of our fellow members has been especially in...
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my post.
By: RabidManatee : May 29th, 2022-03:44
I feel like my collection is at an infection point, not sure where to go from here — I love vintage but am afraid that I don’t know enough to deal in that market. And I’m drawn to some independents as of late. Not sure what to get engraved on the Reverso ...
Thank you!
By: RabidManatee : May 30th, 2022-20:38
I greatly appreciate your perspective and advice. Yes, many decisions to be made; as you said so well, this is a “meandrous journey”! Thank you and best regards!
By: Subexplorer : May 29th, 2022-13:54
Ha ha ha! Don't worry my friend! I was really tempted to break my own rule too! Lol! Those three make a superb choice as well! Keep enjoying all your watches in your superb collection my friend! Abel

By: KMII : May 29th, 2022-16:00
The Discus Burger - the Death Star for the wrist… The Raketa Big Zero, cause there are few pieces taking themselves less seriously 😁 And finally the LUC Chrono One, the watch I got myself for the birth of our first child. She marked it by biting into a lu...
Well played dear KM! I was expecting your entry!
By: Subexplorer : May 29th, 2022-17:13
Great trio! They make me smile too! I specially love the Chopard chrono though the Raketa dial is lovely and your Death Star is really awesome I may add! Hagwe my friend!! Abel
