By-Tor Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 For me today: My favourite Rolex. This for my babe:
coolfire Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 Had this from morning till noon... ...And this from evening on, Just got it a few days back... Pls excuse the quality, took em pics using my xda stealth...
Jetsons Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 A first......this one doesn't need much of anything.
pannylovernr1 Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 Ahh Friday afternoon , then I'll wear my 1930's Helvetia aviator watch. Fluctuates a minute +- a day but that's to expect after 70-80 years of gentle use. From when flying was a bit more rough.
tallkenny Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 Going to fancy dress party as Braveheart William Wallace, thought pam111h on black leather may fit with the 1314 feel!
crystalcranium Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 Ahh Friday afternoon , then I'll wear my 1930's Helvetia aviator watch. Fluctuates a minute +- a day but that's to expect after 70-80 years of gentle use. From when flying was a bit more rough. WOW!!! Just Gorgeous. Nothing like an old working watch. I just bought a Vintage GP Gyromatic 39 jewel High Beat (36,000 bph) on the bay. Can't wait to get it and have it serviced.
shultz Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 As just posted HERE I received my 187 today. That's my weekend wrist/ screenshot (lousy camera I know...)

Girard Perregaux are in my humble opinions one of the most classic looking watches you can get, great buy! Edited November 3, 2006 by pannylovernr1
WatchDude Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 Right now this: And I know it'll be switched with this as some point.
crystalcranium Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 Girard Perregaux are in my humble opinions one of the most classic looking watches you can get, great buy! My Dad has a Gyromatic a friend in the brokerage business gave him in 1968 saying "Fred, I'm sick of seeing you in cheap watches. Wear this". My Dad wore it every day for 32 years until it needed service. Not knowing ANYTHING about watches, he didnt think it unusual the watch needed no input except a monthly adjustment of the minute hand back a few minutes. The friend did tell him if he wore it every day, he would never have to wind it. When I reverently took it in for service in 2000, he almost considered it disposable saying "Well, the damn thing has been running for 30 years, I guess I got everything out of it". Dad...are you kidding me????? Of course, not seeing the value in this amazing timepiece, he almost [censored] a brick when I told him a movement tear down, service and restoration to the dial and hands would run about $350. "Dad, it's on me" I told him. He has worn it every day since 2000 and except for a crystal replacement, it has run flawlessly since the restoration. BTW...he won't be burried with it!!!
True-Stu Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 Hey, I'm no longer a "weekend wrist check" virgin! Here's what I'll be wearing this weekend. First up today is my rep Constellation double eagle. I really like this one a lot. A very impressive rep. Tomorrow, while I'm working outside raking leaves it will be my gen. Eterna Super Kontiki. We're going out to dinner tomorrow night and I'll be wearing a brown camel hair jacket, so I'll be accesorizing with this gen. Raymundo Davalos Rossie power reserve with the crocodile strap.
chris5264 Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 I'm not sure what I'll do if this starts looking normal sized to me...
Pugwash Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 Just back from London where I wore this for two days: Sorry about the old photos, but I've been busy.
