Afternoon all, first of all an apology for starting a bit late - an emergency at work prevented me from doing it at noon, as planned. Still, here we go - looking forward to seeing your two hand watches - discs or any other mechanisms are fine, as long as ...

And your selection is superb 👌🏻👍🏻

That UN Freak has some unusual hands indeed my friend!! Unique and Striking timepiece! Have a nice weekend dear Nicolas! Abrazos!! Abel

Thx so much & Best, hs PS: for me the PAM Marina Militare and the somewhat exuberant “freaking” UN, pls ! But the PP5110 P ( love that shot with the tickets !) + the red Reverso are no weak contenders as well.

And I wouldn't turn down the JLC and the Freak either if they were offered to me. 😊 By the way: I didn't even know that you own an AP with a white (!) date window (!) ?? LOLLLLL

You should obscure the date window with a black bar... 😎

But it fits here too 😁 ...  

Definitely a keeper 👍

Well played

Hagwe! Abel

...  

Patek heaven !

Any total is excusable 😁 Especially if it comes in such a great collage 😊👍🏻

Not essy to choose just one among them. Though I know one of them occupies a very special place in your heart! Sublime watches all of them indeed! Hagwe! Abel

... special love for the Boccadasse!! Of course the others are fabulous watches. I wish you’ll keep loving and enjoying all of them so much my friend! Hagwe! Abel

are watch works of art in their highest form. It’s always a pleasure to be able to look at them. I appreciate your style and individualism. Best Thomas

Here's a closeup which gives a (slightly) better idea, but again pretty far from reality Cheers. ...  

Now that you write it, I can remember this wood marquetry technique by Patek. There have already been a few posts about this here on WhatchPro. Is this marvel yours? Cheers back 😊 Thomas

The reason wood marquetry is so rare with Patek is that only one person is authorized to produce these dials for the brand, Monsieur Jerome Boutteçon. They are true marvels -- and I'm now very much looking forward to seeing what Patek unveils in early Apr...  

But I would be afraid of scratches from this metal plate!!! 😱

May I cry a little bit instead of you? 😎 Seriously, I think it's wonderful when also the most beautiful and valuable watches are actually worn. There is nothing more sad than such works of art rotting away in a safe and seen as a mere investment. Best Tho...

have a good week end ...  

Love the straps you choose for your classy Reverso!! Hagwe! Abel

I’m always fascinated with the Angular Momentum Polyphemos.

Yet equally appealing takes on the theme, Brauner 👍🏻 They both show that two hands doesn’t have to mean dressy 😊

Well played my friend

The DB is awesome and I’m specially attracted by the Polyphemos! Hagwe my friend! Abel

Well played !

So many unbelievable pieces 👍🏻 Didn’t know you got the Crazy Hours in between, too 😊

A friend offered me this one and you know how i love the crazy hours and this one was so special imo that I needed to have it 😉

Cool addition - your collection has been growing rapidly over the last months 😊👌🏻

Nice black Speake-Marin

Wonderful piece... Best Thomas

The RO shot is my favorite 👍🏻

The RO shot is my favorite 👍🏻

Hi Bit of a challenge this week, my only two handed watch is a Swatch Yellow Jelly from circa 2000. Still going strong. Cheers JML ...  

Thanks for sharing, don’t think I have seen this one before 😊

Wonderful two hand timepieces to inspire us to share our watches! Will come back with mine later! Cheers! Abel

Looking forward to seeing your entries 🤞🏻

The CS I have seen before but that Piaget is possibly a premiere here 👏🏻🙌🏻

Though I like to have a seconds hand in my watches showing they are properly working in any moment it is also true the two hands only offer a pleasant and relaxed way of showing time. Here are some of my favorites: Have a nice and enjoyable weekend my dea...  

And you delivered spot on! The 5110 works so well on that strap and the RO shots are superb, too! not that the others are anything but great 👌🏻

... about watches. Absolutely agree with you that it is to be welcomed the sharing of a common selection among friends. With best cordial regards and good wishes, Abel I

The original burgundy might be the manufacture's choice but your combination makes it look even more classic and more serious business like. Very good taste and idea, my dear friend.

At the Milano Boutique a few months after its launching and it came with these alligator black straps as original. Guess they are very elegant indeed! Glad you like it!! Cheers! Abel

Hagwe! Abel

I particularly like the variety of watches as or me this is what makes our sport so enjoyable. Your photo of the Pam 587 Marina Militare is perfect. Best regards The Captain

All that a dress watch needs to be 🙌🏻👌🏻

May I ask what’s the size of the case? Best Thomas

Case is 33mm diameter. Watch is 5mm thick

I think that qualifies? ;-) ...  

So this more than qualifies - great GG 👌🏻🙌🏻

Beautiful

I also appreciate so much your so kind comments about my choices. Have a nice week end mu dear friend and take care! Cheers! Abel

I wondered, how the time/hour iis read on the Franck Muller ? Crazy hours for sure, I guess. Hope you are well, and I am wishing you & yours a great weekend ! Best, hs.

As for the Crazy Hours, not that hard - the minutes work conventionally, while the hour hand is a jumping one, jumping 150 degrees between the hour markers (so there is method to the madness) 😊👍🏻 As for life here, ups and downs but all healthy, my wife an...

Enjoy your great Panerai collection so much my dear friend. Hagwe! Abel

Here we go with my one two-hands: my beloved Panerai 721. Now with your thread I realized that all my other watches with “simple dials” at least have a small seconds hand. HAGWE Thomas ...

I have definitely not your skills and talent but I try to make up for it (a little bit) with passion. ☺️

But I am realist. 😊

I had also "Two hands" in mind as a theme but our dear KMII was quicker😀. Hopefully you are also doing well and enjoying your weekend.

Receive my best cordial regards and good wishes my friend Moritz! Cheers! Abel

Impeccable style 🙌🏻👏🏻

I think it counts with only two hands ;-) HAGWE All, Cheers, Tim ...  

Our friend was kind enough to share this on a visit back in December. Had to snap a couple of pics... Merci and cheers mon ami, Tim

Hopefully we can recreate something similar in due course as the world reconvenes in time. Cheers!

Such a distinctive independent 👌🏻👍🏻

I had the enormous pleasure and perfect timing, being in Dublin on a certain day, to be present when the first platinum McGonigle Tourbillon was presented to its owner and original benefactor of McGonigle watches. As the saying goes “timing is everything”...

A great execution of the concept by Gorilla 👍🏻

Never seen this watch in the metal. Looks so cool! Hagwe! Abel

If I may, here is my half of my only 2 hands. ...  

I am only partially qualified in this WS. The Dr Jekyll side got more than2 hands

And I think the Zeitwerk also qualifies with only 2 hands 😜 ...  

And I was really hoping someone would bring the Zeitwerk - well done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Glad if you got new ideas 👍🏻
