Nanuq Posted October 7, 2017 Report Posted October 7, 2017 How about the two lasses hoisting a pint? Did you notice the one on the right bears a striking similarity to the wooden endowed statue? (ducking)
kernow Posted October 7, 2017 Report Posted October 7, 2017 Statue! No wonder I had no response when in propositioned her! I really should pay more attention to my surroundings rather than the watch I'm wearing. Anyway..... This one is going to get me in trouble so I'm signing off for the night.
kernow Posted October 8, 2017 Report Posted October 8, 2017 Last few before it goes off tomorrow. St Michaels Mount. St Ives The Sloop Inn - older than many countries!
Sogeha Posted October 8, 2017 Report Posted October 8, 2017 Yep, been to all those as well. The Sloop, St. Ives is I think early 1300’s, so must have been quite new when I was a lad. We got dragged around all the great houses too. Trerice, Lanhydrock, Trelissick
McPikie Posted October 8, 2017 Report Posted October 8, 2017 Where is the watch going next? Happy to accomodate in Manchester
dieselpower Posted October 8, 2017 Report Posted October 8, 2017 I'd be proud to host it in the country's capitol after it leaves the country's greatest city courtesy of Mc Pikie.
kernow Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 @Sogeha you are a very well travelled gentleman Sir. The Sloop Inn - Circa 1312 according to the photo, so yes indeed?you would have been a very young boy. @McPikie the clue is in the photos - Nikki6 is receiving the watch next.
martijnp Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 So cool to see this watch on the wrist of so many members and nice places. Next stop is the UK for Nikki. Too bad this watch can't join me on the Dutch GTG this sunday

Too bad this watch can't join me on the Dutch GTG this sunday Well let's see if we can fix that - for its official unveiling........ So a little detour before it gets to Nikki6.
Sogeha Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 This watch has covered a lot of miles already, but strictly speaking it hasn’t actually started to be passed around yet. MOAB arranged getting it from China, so it had to stop off in NY. It couldn’t safely go US to Germany, so it bounced around a little, but it hasn’t been out of Mods hands yet. Could be great for you guys to give it the Official Launch at the GTG, lots of wristies, lots of beer and laughter. 1
kernow Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 Oh yes there will be lots of laugher, I can vouch for that! As we speak the watch is winging its way across the English Channel to our brothers for the Dutch GTG. Enjoy guys. Finally from me, a massive thank you to Andrew at Trusty Time for making this happen. 2
Sogeha Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 Funny, that name is coming up on another thread as a really great TD. I already had my Irish GTG, I was 100% there, so a great turn out. We should do more GTGs 1
sputim Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 damn this watch looks special! Fun story and definitely a cool idea to see the watch going around with so many known members. Should also join me for some public representation in Switzerland
Nanuq Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 I can't wait for this bad boy to come to Alaska! It's got an appointment with a bear. 1
Sogeha Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 No way is this beauty going to the Alaskan Modder from hell! We need a firm undertaking it will return in the same condition it arrives 1
Nanuq Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 Perhaps it was *cough* dropped in the mail?
Sogeha Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 In the same way you might accidentally fall off the Kamchatka Peninsula? 1
Mike on a bike Posted October 9, 2017 Author Report Posted October 9, 2017 Guys well we are overwhelmed with responses GREAT! Everybody wants to take a shot!! At this time it going over to Nikki6/Stu and then maybe stop in at the Dutch GTG w/ Marti and his crew then over to Docthor who guessed the watch after that we will shall see whether by geographic location to ease shipping or by order of request we shall see. Of course our VIP and above members will get first shot.
Nanuq Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 Let's put me toward the end of the list. I have some ideas. Muwahahahahahaaaaaaaaa
Sogeha Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 Yep, it’s already been done, you’re right at the end of the list alright. You cant destroy this Watch once it’s been round the world and seen so many fine members. It already has a place of honour waiting for it in the trophy cabinet. Right at the champagne fountain, past the bear skin rug, once you reach the humidor it’s the fancy mahogany cabinet just to the left with the glass shelves and led downlighting. You should remember it, you put the last of Ken’s left nuts in there for posterity
Nanuq Posted October 9, 2017 Report Posted October 9, 2017 Oh dang, that's right! Back when we still called him "Ken". My bad.
indywatchguy Posted October 11, 2017 Report Posted October 11, 2017 Patiently awaiting the arrival of this beaut So far great pics Gents! 1
martijnp Posted October 12, 2017 Report Posted October 12, 2017 (edited) I missed the delivery man.. Edited October 12, 2017 by martijnp
martijnp Posted October 13, 2017 Report Posted October 13, 2017 Doesn’t match my suit but oh it’s a watch that can’t be unseen Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk 2
