It's a shame there are so few of his creations around!

Probably much better to watch it in action vs pictures.

Interesting to get some real life experiences. Thanks

Vintage watches can absolutely be high-end. Have to look at each for what it is but agree with the why not attitude?

Some of the most beautiful watches ever produced were made in the 1950's and...

Casually tried to find the Zenith around NYC but no luck yet. The Dunhill is interesting but she wants something dressier this time. Down the line I think it would get more additional...

Rose gold,...

I've got my ticket!

If anybody should have a minute repeater it would be him...

That's what he gets for not wearing it without any strap or bracelet ;-)

Useful thread, thanks guys

Nice work!

There's no price of admission here - just discussing the good stuff - no entry watch needed!

^I do love that VC. I was down to that or the FP Journe CS... ended up with the Journe but the VC might be next on the hit list :D
