subbiesrock Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 A.L. & S model 1815 ... comes in white dial as well .. note the double spring barrels. The movement manufacturer says 80 hours, and one member here claims 86. Of course, the 1815. I remember this one from a discussion a while ago. What a great looking and functional movement! May have to look into this one, but I doubt the movement is even close to the gen, however beautiful in it's own right
Jkay Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 OK, where do I find a good rep one of these? PM me if you prefer. I like this one. That is the Vacheron Constantin Overseas white dial, non-chrono ... and that is the rep! Isn't it nice. Talk to Connie King! Or Pro-Watch!
HauteHippie Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 Neither of these are terribly plain, but they've both done me well in dressy situations (which thankfully for me are few and far between). This one I collected the parts for and then gave to my brother. He wears it everyday, but has no problem wearing it under a suit either. I just wish he'd take a little better care of it.
Limestone Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 (edited) Ubi... way do you keep posting these images. One day I´ll have to get me one :thumbsupsmileyanim: As OP, I do like the chrono watches with a lot of sub dials and pushers. But your white DayDate is one of the nicest one I´ve seen.. //H Edited July 19, 2011 by henrik_6
sconehead Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 Santos 100...great rep, extreme quality, gen Swiss too (SW200)...
Baryonic Matter Posted July 19, 2011 Author Report Posted July 19, 2011 That is the Vacheron Constantin Overseas white dial, non-chrono ... and that is the rep! Isn't it nice. Talk to Connie King! Or Pro-Watch! Yes, it is! Thanks for the links, I may be having a chat with one of them soon.
Baryonic Matter Posted July 19, 2011 Author Report Posted July 19, 2011 Some great looking watches there guys, very impressive. I will admit that I'm not a huge fan of square watches but there are a couple of quality looking items among that lot. I'm not sure if you've made my task of getting a classy watch easier, or harder. .
Jkay Posted July 25, 2011 Report Posted July 25, 2011 You're welcome! If you are having a problem with a watch fitting under a shirt cuff, then have someone alter the cuff size for you .. or wear a french cuff.
HPoirot Posted July 25, 2011 Report Posted July 25, 2011 Personally, i'd lose the bracelet and go leather if i'm going for classy. And i think small watches are classier than larger ones. Practically everything i'd recommend has already been posted, so i shall not make it even more difficult for you to choose. Just bear these 2 things in mind. That being said, i think the most classy watch is JLC's reverso.
