Nanuq Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 Alright formal warning time for Bart and Eunomians! You guys need to post a disclaimer before you put up pictures of your watches! One page back, there I was innocently looking at watch pictures, click ... click ... yawn ... click ... and then suddenly, unexpectedly, out of nowhere.... BOOM!!!!!!!!! the Daytona and Patek leaped out and grabbed my retinas. I was struck dumb. Catatonic. I spilled my coffee, ruined another good keyboard, sitting drooling like Pavlov's dog. Motionless, unable to move, think or breathe... or respond when my boss snuck up behind me. Now I live in a cardboard box and my only possession is a candle, so I can lie staring at the photos of those two gorgeous watches. But I'll be okay. I always bounce back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sogeha Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 I was born in Yorkshire. I always dreamed of one day owning my own cardboard box, but life ground me down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had a dream? Utter luxury! I lived a life of grinding labor interspersed with beatings from strangers who purchased Beat The Bear tickets at the corner shop. Ironically, the cardboard box I call home was the shipping container for the tickets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted May 13, 2017 Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 I tread softly along the fine line separating raving insanity and lucid moments of ingenuity. The issue is I've no idea which is which mostly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasebah Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Shot this at the bay for the price of 7734 movement. I think it is out of the ordinary with its vibrant colors. Unfortunately after setting it a few times the date won't change anymore. Will have to open it up soon and make use of the chronograph course Inrecently started. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eunomians Posted May 16, 2017 Report Share Posted May 16, 2017 Really not sure about this one. I enjoyed trying it on at the local AP store a couple of years ago. Now it just seems like it fades into the ether. As if it has no voice or personality, or perhaps genuine originality. Maybe it's my sorta disdain for AP these days... Trends, clichés, fashion, new money... Yes the design is historic. Yes AP has a great story But like most things in this reality, money can buy you an AP or some other pedigree bespoke watch... But money cannot buy experience, patina, integrity, blah blah .... My rant is silly. Suffice it to say, I'd rather drive my air-cooled bat out of hell with all the right things wrong than drive a 2018 that any player with a big bank account can just go out and purchase. This watch belongs to which kind of mindset? I'm confused now! I guess that's what Hublot is for! To neuter the thirst for something original! The ups and downs of this hobby for 3 decades perhaps has got me twisted today! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
