Indeed, the Angelus looks big! Best Blomman

I'm still hunting for one, and will be continued to be inspired by yours

Very beautiful Indeed ...

I hope the puppy is OK, I have no doubts about the watch. The strap, not so much.

I love that series of photos!

So he wouldn't have got away with it.

... - or even gold. The only difficult part was the "dogfight" to get back the watch!

Asymmetric symmetry! Best Blomman

with the Girard-Perregaux Olimpico 8846N with silver sunburst dial Oh yeah, just in case there were any doubts... Best, CC ...  

Love the strap , looks great with the watch 👍🏻

And that last photo is a must, considering who posted the WS...

Plus, you are more exposed to making a mistake, as a 'vintage primarily' guy.

On either buckle or watch! Best Blomman

I didn't doubt the buckle would be correct.

Knowing who you hang out with...

...this one is most probably one of my favourites ones (if not the favourite)

...  

...  

Clean, crisp and casual. And a favorite Watch to make it classic. Best, Tim

Especially like the 'Superman' piece of lint, hehehe.

Have a great time in Marbella my friend enjoy both the holiday and your beautiful APRO

Hope you enjoy your holidays as well

I did not take any 😢 maybe I should have 😂🤣

So live your day and take yourself on a deserved vacation and go somewhere you lose yourself and detach from this cirques of what we call life

...she could read you but I know you are right my friend. I have to try to cool down at work but it’s not easy nowadays in big groups when you have a lot of pressure from management. I’ll try to listen to your good and wise advice my friend, thank you 🙏😉.... 

New arrival this week, from Eastern Europe. Its big 40mm case wears nicely on the wrist. Regrettably, it's only on my wrist for today, and tomorrow it's off to the spa! ...  

Very nice looking watch! Any info to share about the brand? Best Blomman

Nico, Blomman : I couldn't find much info about the movement, nor could I find it on the Ranfft pages as well. All I know is that it's branded as 'Optima'. There's very little info about the company too. The little detail I could find about the company wa...  

Hope you will find more on this brand/watch! Best Blomman

Keep your stix off my watch. Best, Tim ...  

A winner imho

But this is a great piece, seldom seen with this dial. I think we need more pics of it.

But like you said we need to see more pics from this watch 👍🏻

That one must be extremely cool in summer ! Arrrgh I love this salmon dial !

The PanomaticLunar is quite photogenic. ...  

But also great to look at in the metal ! GO had the great idea to make it in steel which makes the price affordable for such a beautiful Watch, well done

The Deep Sea Alarm Tribute today for casual Friday. ...  

But, that is why I keep them apart, so I have no difficult choices.

I prefer the US version. Only ‘downside’ compared to the EU version is when you set the alarm the text on the dial is upside down. But then again; why would you use that alarm?

I don’t use the alarm, even though some people try to set it for 6 am, not realizing I wake up at 4.

Just make sure not to break the strap! Best Blomman

I have this talent, or bad luck. I am cursed with this anti-strap luck. I even break the 'unbreakable'.

I start to think should adopt your watches for their own safety! Best Blomman

Even scratches don’t bother me.

I also really like the strap on this. I saw something similar posted here, can't remember by who. I was a bit skeptical at first, never had a light strap and now I absolutely love the combo.

And HAGWE to you too, Abel.

The breadth of your collection always amazes me.

But thank you.

You're Mr. White.

Cheers, G.

And I’m very happy sporting the period (and Continental!) correct metal box containing a period correct Rolex pin buckle to go with the 1675. Thank you so much dear friend! ...  

And the metal box looks perfect for this setting! Best Blomman

That root beer is very cool, and very 'you'.

What an evolution between these 2. Amazing how they look alike and so different at the same time

Hi Some smaller watches this week - all about 35mm Cheers JML ...  

And it's anything but small, it's very suitably sized, and certainly has lots of wrist presence!

Memovox is about 36mm - which for me is a good size, though small by current standards. As you say - has lots of presence on wrist. I've never considered it to be a small watch Cheers JML

and the Memovox is tops. Cheers, Giles.

Currently waiting on the return of the Memovox Will be good to have it back Cheers JML

The rest aren't bad either, hehe.

I wonder if you are the only Purist with that combination.

I would guess there are a number of combinations (and complications) rather unique to us all ;-) Cheers Giles

I had the chance to play with one some time ago. Best Blomman

Enjoying the WT this weekend for sure. Best, Giles.

I do concur 😉. Best, G.

... this week end WS! I have an special fondness for blue dials and your Laureato is a good example of how beautiful this color can be and enhance a superb watch. I will be playing with my ref 1625 TOG from 1966 this time. The yellow gold bezel has develo...  

I don't think I ever saw one before. Very nice, Abel.

But it gives off a very cool vibe, very non-conformist.

The gold bezel really makes this watch pop! HAGWE, my friend Blomman

Best & HAGWE, hs.

Glad you like this oldie!! Hagwe my friend!! Abel

Am quite drawn to the less ‘complicated’ models. Great shots too, Abel. Have a great weekend. Giles.

Great to see you back, my friend! Best Blomman

Well the guess is more than easy to recognize these beautiful indexes and hands... HAGWE, Mike ...  

Fantastic shots, my friend! Best Blomman

Thanks for your kind words my friend

The first pic is the Classic (round shape) in rose gold with dark grey dial, the other is the Square (cushion case) with a night blue dial. Both are brushed dials giving a beautiful depth. Voilà you know everything

Best & HAGWE ! hs

LF watches are very understated and for me it’s a daily wearer. Huge pleasure for me in total discretion

Here a pic at the 2017 SIHH ...  

Yes, there are subtle differences between the 2017 version and the Anniversary... My personal preferences goes to the Anniversary... Best, my friend Blomman

.. until yesterday it was my well trusted Rolex Ref 15000, the first from my Rollies, a low key beater, from 1980. This week in Italy For the weekend I‘ve still got to decide.. Summer is coming also for the FF NoRad Or shall I pick the Chronometro CP-2 ? ...

& Yes, it was a very nice week, travelling through Friuli, Collio and Istria. And beautiful Trieste again was great, so was Zampolli, BTW ! Best & HAGWE, hs.

I am drawn to that Rolex! Cheers, G.

... The FF no rads is a Grail to me! An elusive Grail I regret to say!! May be some day Lady Luck comes to my help! In the meantime I enjoy it through great shots like yours! Hagwe my friend!! Abel

.. I am pretty sure, you could find “your” FF, not that easy but probably possible.. Cheers & HAGWE, hs.

... in my local hunting grounds. Buying via mail is a definitive no no from here! May be I can hunt for it when I can start traveling again which has been not possible for me lately. Let´s see if I´m lucky some day! All the best my friend! Abel

My very Best & HAGWE ! hs.

I assume they were born 9 1/2 months apart?
