phlee Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 @phlee How do you like the audemars? It's my first AP, I'm still in the honeymoon phase. Loving the bracelet and the blue dial. It's mesmerising I find myself staring at the watch all the time, yet have no idea what the actual time is! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HectorLopez Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Always wanted to have a Rolex and went a little overboard. It's like cigars.....you just can't stop. Have a few other watches too but wear these most often as daily wear. Regards.I love that 1675 on the riveted bracelet, and the white gold blue sub is one of my next purchases. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got this Omega back from Omega in CH; overhauled & finished head to toe. Owned 3 years and it took 6 months to get it back; perfect watch. The case back is engraved for a military award in Persian Gulf. Has a jet on the back all in Titanium. Luckily the guy who it was awarded to is alive... I had posted locally on CL for sale as I have a Titanium dive watch I wear more. Would like to trade towards a Z-33 or a few non Omega watches I been fancying... Hence trying to sell.

Popular Post Dmpotocek Posted January 27, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2017 There is definitely some substantial overlap in the cigar and watch circles. I know I live in both worlds. At least with watches you aren't "lighting money on fire" like with cigars. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightonCorgi Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I was doing some business next to the Rolex HQ. There's a grass run way near by where you see some planes promoted by other watch making marques. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatchNRelease Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 My two babies. The omega gets most of the wear because I use the bezel to time my breaks at work the IWC is my weekender 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polarbear Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Never been much of a watch person. My trusty Immersion H2O served me well for a couple of years until the band broke and I had trouble finding a replacement after the company went bust I looked at replacing it but it was a gift from my Parents for my 21st so I didn't want to toss it for something that was a bit more flash My missus ended up finding a jeweller in Germany who specialised in making converting Immersion H2Os from their standard rubber strap to stainless clasp ones and ended up having it repaired for our anniversary last year. It been back on my wrist ever since. Its no Rolex but it does have a built in depth gauge and bottom timer (a feature I needed during my technical diving days) and has saved me from a trip to the decompression chamber on 2 different occasions. I'll get myself a nice Oris Pro Diver Chronograph one day but the drive to pick one up tends to falter when I remember I can only wear one watch at a time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what just came in...check the beauty of that case!? Its almost a 6309 from the 1960's...day date hacks and winds. Just perfect. These were $550 when they first came out due to the "craze". Under $250 now. SEIKO SRP777K1 AUTOMATIC Also cool enough for Mick back in the day....And it's a night light. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goose Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Hi All, Back story first - My father worked as a Distributor for watches in the Middle East for 25 years, so he always gave my brothers and I some pieces he received on Trade/Industry visits to keep and hence I had a small collection of prototypes and non-"brand name" watches on me. My wife gifted me a Tissot Cotourier for a Birthday a few years back, and till a few days ago it was the prize of the collection. I had till recently never spent coin on a watch for myself, and was eyeing this beauty for a while now. It is a Seiko Japanese Domestic market model (SARX033) and damn, its simply beautiful. If its moniker "Baby Grand" is anything to go by, I really need to see/feel what a Grand Seiko is like. This piece simply exudes elegance and has a jewellry like quality to it. Very difficult to photograph nut I've tried my best to show the dials sunburst effect. I think I've been bitten by the bug & eyeing what to get next. The cigar fund is going to do some overtime it seems. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always wanted a Breitling Navitimer Cosmonaute A12322 one of the last hand wind Lemania movement watches (Omega Moon watch). Found one! This sucker is mint...from around 1999 but no later than 2001 when they were discontinued. Came with that BLINGY bracelet. I immediately spent a stupid amount and bought a Breitling leather strap. I will be putting that bracelet on eBay as I will never wear on that bracelet. A couple pics... NOW to get used to my first 24 hour watch and reading the time at a glance! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
