Lobster Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 I know there must have been several threads like this before, but I love seeing watch pics If you had all the money in the world etc etc... what watches would you get? I am a sporty watch guy but there are two dressy watches that I would love to own. The Pano Inverse from Glashutte is absolutely special. I tried the gen on in an AD in Frankfurt and just felt so sad that I couldn't take it home But the ultimate watch I would want to own is the L&S Zeitwork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy333 Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 My ultimate grail & the only watch that has (so far) eluded my franken-built clutches is the Lange 1, in precisely the form that tomhorn posted above. 2nd after the Lange are the ultimate Rolex collectibles - the SS 6062 Moonphase (preferably with dauphine hands & star indexes) or 4113 Chronographe Rattrapante (Split Seconds Chronograph) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bike Mike Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 This one....or any RM piece really. Of course now that I think about it, if I had all the money is the World, I would have some thing built for me...a nice one off piece.

jeff g Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Grail watches are truly in the eye of the beholder. Many of those folks coveting that perfect watch are Rolli folks, then many of the people are Panerai guys. True grail pieces are many of the many great swiss classics. For me there are really only a few. AP RO , and the PP Nautilus come to mind. But of course that is just me. Grail? What ever floats your boat I guess.

lhooq Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Is this based on aN ETA 7751 movt? The Moonphase predates the 7750 by about 20-30 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy333 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Is this based on aN ETA 7751 movt? 9 3/4" 'bubbleback' movement. Rolex does not use ETA movements in their Rolex branded watches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kronos twin Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 A Zenith Academy will always be on my list. Always. And then the Hybris mechanica by JLC would have to be on this list.
