Devilish (Missing) Detail
By: colton_d : December 17th, 2021-16:40
The year was 2015, I was taking a brief mental break at my office and perusing the 'new arrivals' section of a local unscrupulous grey dealer when my heart stopped upon seeing none other than a Lange 1 101.027x staring back at me... or was it? Upon closer...
Interesting story you share Colton…

For a new watch, I love the detail of the Maltese Cross on the column wheel of my CDV. (Sorry, I know Abel also showed the lugs on his CDV, but I figure it’s a great watch so ok to show twice.). For an old watch, I love the patina on an old GP that belong...

Thanks Captain!
By: KMII : December 21st, 2021-06:01
The Moscow Cosmonaut museum I only visited briefly but have spent a lot of time in the refurbished Kaluga Space Museum and a day in the Star City, the training center for all cosmonauts outside of Moscow 👍🏻
