jkarpas Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 (edited) Well... 2 weeks ago my boss bought a great full gold yachmaster II for a friend of his. The watch was massive and full gold, cost 27000euros. I handled the watch for a while , and then my boss went to the airport to leave his fiance, leaving me in the car with his watch case. Well i couldnt resist taking some pics with my phone to share with my friends here at rwg. so here we go a daytona with secs @ six on brown crock strap a rollie explorrer II gmt and a radiomir base the best part is a few days ago i went to the ad for the panerai and for the rolex to change the straps for some new hirsch genuine alligator straps. It really felt nice (offcourse i was sporting my ne vc overseas..) I really loved the radiomir for the simple and elegant looks, now i want one.. the mvt is so nicely decorated from close.. i hope you enjoyed and excuse my crappy pics. thank you John.

Stephane Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 Lucky Man They don't look so different from ours do they ? I wish my boss: 1. collect Genuine watches (he only have one ugly full gold "old man" watch, an Omega if I remember) 2. was living on the same continent as me (with his watches if he'd collect them) Cheers Stephane
jkarpas Posted July 30, 2007 Author Report Posted July 30, 2007 they look really close to ours indeed.. i wish i had taken some pics of the yachtmaster II also.. i was so impressed i forgot. My boss also owns a brand new sub LV and his lady a full gold masterpiece with diamond markers and bezel as far as i remember..
Willith Posted July 31, 2007 Report Posted July 31, 2007 He left his fiance at the airport and left you in the car with all his watches, are you dating now? Those are some nice watches, thanks for sharing. Did you try them on too or just take the pictures?

Not crappy at all, rather cloak-and-daggerish actually. Thanks for the insight, John. My fave, the one I just bought -- the Radiomir base, 210. Went to Strap Culture already for a nice 27mm strap, but wonder if my Fiddy straps will fit on them too? Can someone advise if I should stick to specialised Radiomir straps, because of their graceful curves towards the bottom? (Gosh, it sounds like I'm talking about J-Lo)

(Gosh, it sounds like I'm talking about J-Lo) Out of topic here but let me reply ... personaly i think that 27/22 is the strap to wear on the 45mm rad ... all do the 26/24 aint a bad choice either ... rolli for one i think prefers the 26/24 combo as he told me once we discussed the rad straps ... 26/26 is a no go in my book ... just bulks out to much and changes the whole look of the watch. hope that gave u an idea V. regards laz
Victoria Posted July 31, 2007 Report Posted July 31, 2007 Out of topic here but let me reply ... Thanks, Laz! Yes, a bit OT, but I digested your info with great hunger.
jkarpas Posted July 31, 2007 Author Report Posted July 31, 2007 well, i admit i thought of driving off with all these beautys.. offcourse i tried them on ! the daytona as i was told is white gold...
georgegrasser Posted July 31, 2007 Report Posted July 31, 2007 well, i admit i thought of driving off with all these beautys.. offcourse i tried them on ! the daytona as i was told is white gold... Yes. Whomever has a boss, should drive off with his watch collection. For the sake of equality.
KB Posted July 31, 2007 Report Posted July 31, 2007 Just out of interest................what type of car was it? And yes all beautiful watches. Ken
