HAGWE...  

HAGWE everyone..................  

Vulcain alarm watch for the weekend. It has been sometime since I last put this on. Blue dial Vulcain. It reflects nicely under certain lighting conditions. Circa 70s, cushion shape showing a style that was popular then. Manual winding with a tropic strap...  

there's a long story about this. i decided i might like the new Oris TT3 all black stealth more than the Phantom so listed the Phantom for sale on tuesday. within 2 hours i had a firm and very healthy offer so took it out of the safe to clean it. luckily ...  

That story put smile on my face. I really like the UN a lot -- and the photo captured a special moment. And, wow, thse two watches are so different, must be very confusing for your wrist. respo

Love that UN perp! Bob

Fantastic WS, my friend... Defintely a killing combo, and so happy to see that this one is a keeper on your wrist... Since when do you have it on your wrist??? Best. Nicolas

You already won today's "contest" with the Gyro II. LOL. respo

I like!

...time-only watch (and a very elegant one): can you be persuaded to tell the class why it has a pusher at 7o'clock? Cheers, pplater.

Are you at war? LoL Looking good Nilolas, wish you have a great weekend. Cheers

Always fighting to get my grail! LOL Best, my friend! Nicolas

Must be a grail as you said as you have to sacrifice the beautiful Daylight SlyTech. Cheers

Hello everyone, I think its my first time to post in this section (I frequent the VC forum though I don't get to post much anymore). Anyway, this seems to be a fun way to cap a long week. I noticed VC seldom gets any representation so I decided to hold th...  

Very nice and I seriously considered it when I visited the boutique last summer - I regret not getting it! Cheers, Al

I have been using the clear "Jelly" strap. Reminds me of my swatch wearing days as a kid. Have a great weekend everybody! -MW This message has been edited by DRMW on 2008-09-26 08:04:08...  

Cheers

I've been wearing mine all week. What do you think of the ABR Krieng?

Overall, I like the look of it, the dark bezel and dial + the green accents, etc., a sporty watch that I would wear in casual or even the formal. Cheers

for this unusual watch. - SJX...  

akin to: from escort service to geylang service gael penwythnos iawn cen@jkt

which makes this watch look pretty awesome. Cheers

and it was quartz. The one I posted is one of the few automatic models they make. It's a pity the company hasn't done more with the double retrograde, it could potentially be much more successful. - SJX

HAGWE..!! Andy....

So checking the timing on the wrist... Long story on this one but repaired it for my nehpew after he traded his Seiko 5 for it with a missionary in Rwanda. Cheers, Al...

My BR 03-92 just got back from the watch hospital. Although I'd only had it for a week and a half, its second hand started getting hung up on the minute hand. After a few weeks in the shop, its back ticking on my wrist. HAGWE! Cheers, Dom...

Hi Benjamin, I would love to hear more about your pocket watch and see a few more pictures, including the movement. A chronograph obviously. Love the hands and very legible dial. Thanks for posting this. Andrew
