Yep. It led to a micro "Lobster" theme

13. Unlucky. A buddy of mine has what I'm pretty sure will be the 14th. Just got to get over to see it.....

Not very active on watch stuff these days as this is motorcycle season for me. :)

Too many to effectively picture. Here are some pics some thematic, some not.from a few years ago.

Some of the chronographs

Always liked chronographs and had a nice one that was my daily wearer.

When I started collecting as a hobby it was because I was fascinated by the miniature mechanical nature of watches. I...

As long as you buy a Rolex which Rolex still has case parts for, you shouldn't fear buying a used Rolex as a daily wearer. As long as case parts are available they will be able to restore it to near...

My opinion of the B01 is based on my experience with the watches I currently own. I would place the B01 I own behind the following automatic chronograph movements.



Piguet 1185 (BP 2185, AP...

Yes, although I would cross shop them with Sinn and Tutima which are also worth the price of entry. The Sinns are slightly nicer, the Tutimas pretty much equal.

I've got a Navitimer 01 with the B01 movement in it. The movement is okay, but not one of the better automatic chronograph movements currently available in the market.

I own a few of them including a Cosmonauts Chrono with the Lemania 5100 in it which I've had for a couple of decades. I also owns some Hamiltons and IWCs. Out of the box they are nicer than Hamiltons...

I started collecting when the entire industry was dominated by ETA movements and inhouse movements were relatively rare. This caused me to initially be a movement centered collector. Never seemed...

I made a list of integrated automatic chronograph movements (excepting the Cal 11 around 2010. I was attempting to collect every automatic chronograph movement made.

Ape RS125 should be allot of fun. I've got an RS250 and 10 other bikes including an 1199 Panigale.

Long out of production. Two variants were produced.

I like them.

First they have a much broader and deeper selection than any retailer. It is much more likely that you'll be able to see anything that you want to see from a maker at a boutique than...

Tutima ceased production of their 760 series chronographs several years ago. There still may be some NOS around, Sinn also had some watches with the Lemania 5100 up until several years ago and there...

Had a C model ZZR1100 (ZX11) for over a decade. It was a great bike. When the weather is nice my motorcycling hobby displaces my watch collecting hobby.

Breguet does not currently offer a Lemania 5100 based chronograph. Their XX/XXI chronos are based on the Lemania 1350 a development of the 1340 line. The 1340/50 movements are entirely different than...

I had my MM300 serviced this year after it developed a problem. My local watchmaker would have serviced it for $85 had it not needed parts. It needed parts and went back to Japan through Seiko USA as...

I know, I know. You're both thinking my god, I can't believe he managed to get an SKX009!

:p

I guess the year is done for me. Came in second on a PloProf 1200 this afternoon. Added the following in 2014. Never sell, although returned 2 (Accutron Snorkel, Zodiac Super Seawolf 36000) to...

I get you now. Looked it up and the case is 46mm. Was thinking you might have been referring to some other watch commemorating Heyerdahl's 1947 adventure....

47?
