your quite right iceheller, i dont think i've ever seen a cannonball on the forum before
i've seen several Ball's in different places and they seem to trade on their history as the official railroad watch supplier for the US and their new lume capsules. apart from that i dont know much about them.

JLC Ultrathin and ultralight
..., as I am going to make some music with a good friend, the fingers will hopefully execute their movements more easily ! You know the "Spring sonata" by Beethoven? - if you have an inclination towards classical music: get it and listen, as it´s wonderfu...
Perfect, anaesdoc!
THE JLC quintessence, indeed! Have a good day, my friend. And feel free to post many more pics of this beauty on our JLC forum. Best, Nicolas
Ultrathin rule...
Nice watch...here is mine :o) CASE : 18k solid gold with 4mm high body (case + arcylic cystal=7.3mm) Diameter : 34mm w/o crown Caliber : 711 Year : 1966 Buckle : 18k solid gold Best Chung...
Yes thet Ultra thin does Rule
At least the ThinDom LOL. Old school JLC Ultratin. Bill...
it amazes me how they could make a movement that thin
the absolute perfect dress watch. i must look into an ultrathin calibre from 1964. the Omega 711 is probably my best bet if they made it then. best Graham

One of my favourite everday watch. Morning in Asia.......... and keeping an eye on dawn to London. Busy day, but will always make time for prosite ! HAGWE !...
"Ultrathin and ultralight" ...
Not for me, not today ... ... not anymore ... HAGWE Oliver...
Nice .....
Oliver, u are killin me with these photos ............. I have a soft spot (extremely) for the FF in full metal jacket ! HAGWE !!
If only, Oliver....
... I had the means (ALS & BP) and wrist (BP) the 1815 and FF would be my choice as well - two great watches! Congrats, anaesdoc
This special ALS is ...
very affordable - believe me. It is from the time when I didn´t own one ALS. Just a colour print out for to see how it looks on my wrist, until I could afford it ;-) You see everything is possible. Oliver ps: of course you nees a scissor as well
I don't think anybody gets it, Oliver . . .
. . . but that's ok - just consider it a private joke! LOL, Art
After taking a closer look
I now get it (better late that never) Good photoshop Cheers
Never thought it would be so easy ...
to show nice, new watches each week Also my banker will be quite happy with this solution. Cheers Oliver
your banker....
would be happier but not your wrist... LOL However it is a very economical solution And you did get me initially (Art gave me a hint and realized) HAGWEE Cheers
That is (hopefully) correct, but ...
it is an original - from an official catalog Any more qualms? ;-) Oliver
LOLOLOL, Andrew... We fight hard
Against fakes and Frankenwatches but the risk is always present... Best, Nicolas
Aaahhh, one more " "Ultrathin and ultralight"" ...
Perfect for waiting and for savings - in two ways ;-) Oliver

Just picked this up today. God, I do love it so. This message has been edited by Chromatic Fugue on 2009-07-30 19:34:27...
Great photos of a great watch …
… and nice juxtaposition of the “vertical blinds” (why do they call them that when they are obviously horizontal?) with the vertical lines on the dial (what do Omega call that pattern?). The depth in the dial is well captured. Congratulations. Andrew...
many thanks, Andrew
Believe it or not, I took these photos on my iPhone; better photos to come next week. I think Omega calls this a "teck" pattern, though I can't recall why. I was happy to discover that the pattern is much more subtle in the metal than in the marketing pho...
You did it, Chromatic Fugue!
I thought you only tried it, but it seems that you went out the shop with it! Congrats! HAGWE with your new baby. Best, Nicolas
this is one of the nicest new Omegas for several years
i'm really looking forward to Arts long term review of the Annual Calendar. i love the dial design, classy and subtle. best Graham
Remember "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" . . .
. . . where Newman and Redford shared feelings for the same woman? You're Newman ;-) . . . . . . wistfully, Art...
luckily, Art, the manufacturer made more than one!
Also, yours is an annual calendar, and thus has more between the ears. : )
this one
My trusted Baume & Mercier Dual Time. Has gone to many places with me. Love the simple and clean dial. J....
Classic and understated
Very nice piece. Haven't seen too many of these around and it's nice to see one here. Richard
A Cannonball from BALL
Here my chrono as well. Bet that you never heard or seem it here. Cheers.

i remember that VP, a very nice platinum triple date chrono. rare as hens teeth i should think. best Graham
That a BALL alright but..
It not the cannonball. It is one of the Doc chronograph. Anyway i under the trainmaster series. Nice to see a fellow BALLer here. Cheers.
great watch
I think this is the watch of all watches. It's elegance, sporty-ness, pedegree. The best of all is that this design still sticks out after 30 years and easily trashes todays watches. I love this dial color combination. You are a lucky man Jeff
Thanks Steven !
the 1960's "racing" design may appear a little "exagerated" to some... I understand that 40 years ago most customers preferred the understated look of the standard dial. Cheers Jeff
Is there a new addititon, Quan?
Congrats! The 219 is a lovely Panerai, and always original with its destro look. HAGWE. Nicolas
No
it is J serial, got it a year ago, thanks for the compliment, yes I like the humble look and destro (my only left handed). No new $$ as Mech's term, so no new pcs at the moment and as you said need to strike lotto .... LOLOL
Did you take it off your wrist since you got it, Geo?
Seems you're deeply in love with! And you're right, this is a GORGEOUS one! HAGWE! Nicolas
"Did you take it off your wrist" and if not ...
I could understand it as it is a very beautiful and "special" looking piece. Just love to see rare beauties Oliver
GMT IIc this weekend
Rolex finally made a Fan out of me with this one. Great case, bracelet and movement, they did a great job with all the new changes....
Congrats, aboen...I'm deeply in love with this GMT!
Aaargh, will have to get one soon! Best, Nicolas
Lovely Breitling Richard. i'm a big fan of 24hr dials with 12 at the top
one of my favourite Breitlings. best Graham
You are a wise man...I say make 24 h dials the standard!

An alltime classic!
Congrats, Fernando on this watch! Although it is my no means a rare watch - to the contrary it is a fairly commonly seen timepiece - it is always again a pleasure to have a look at this watch. Best regards, anaesdoc This message has been edited by anaesdo...
