Start of the Week Wristcheck 11-4-2007

[Pix]

The target is set very high this week ! Nothing but awesome watches and excellent pics !

Mademoiselle V, did someone tellyou that your pictures have become more and more artistic ? Is that a disease linked to the boards ?

I'd like to say Bravo : that's not male chauvinism, but a woman with a PAM and taking pictures like you is something really...er, how to say, uncommon ? Exceptionnal ?

Serious look for me today...

Interestingly, that photo shoot you see with Nicole Kidman's figure and hands (Chanel advert from October Vogue), and the Misha-Movado one took a few minutes.

I am very fast these days, since I have an "eye" for what I want YOU to see.

HELLO! This is the compliment of a lifetime, not an insult! Merci mille fois!

(As I said, I cannot stand how feminism has made it almost impossible for a man to compliment a woman, without an assumed sexism they think is implied. This is bullpuckey, and I resent it deeply)

Serious look for me today...

The suit, the shirt, the watch. Perfection.

@Eunomians: WOW!

[freddy333]

Euno, now THAT is a watch.

I see you have it fitted with one of those lovely, beveled gen T21s that makes a Daytona look like it is encased in a jewelbox. Nice.

[TWP]

I shall wear the Submariner this Monday, Wednesday, and Tuesday.

Very nice Corgi!

Just received, my brand new, serviced MBW AP ROO. Finish of rep is as good as anything I've seen yet.

[Victoria]

The sheen! She blinds!

(Another awesome piece in this thread. One of the best I've seen in 5 months)

Thanks Freddy, I agree the T21 is really striking on the vintage Daytona's.

[freddy333]

tmg -- Not all gen T21s cast the same spell. Only the beveled version produces the vintage Daytona magic. This is one case where a flat-top with a slant has it all over a domed lid.

Tuesday - Switched from this:

To this:

[Victoria]

To this:

Ooh, PAM 063 on a brown Europelli Shell Cordovan.

And I don't think anyone has ever said this outside of a gay black barbershop, Dluddy, but I just love your fades!

[V]

I am wearing today and for the next days the following... Need to wear the strap as much as I can

[UB7]

Yay!! I finally got my TT daytona back from Andrew...Sent it out about 2 months ago because the crown wouldnt wind, and Andrew had his watchsmith fix it and now it works perfect!! This 1 really turns heads!

i see you held onto your GPF Mod Def buckle

[freddy333]

Wow, nice work, tmg! I am drooling without even liking that model.

Thanks Freddy, yup people either love or hate the 1655.

Nice PN! -love those exotic dials

deltatahoe

Yeap... i decided not to sell it

The old greek hide is the most appropriate for the buckle. True vintage feeling, smell and patina in the future. It will look wonderful in couple of weeks

Freakation! Do you guys have Houston's up there too, Freddy?

Boo. I don't do chain restaurants, so even if the 3 hour wait wasn't reason enough, now I can use that too.

P.S.: Awesome photo, and watch!

[Victoria]

Not sure why, because it's a simple composition (perhaps because of that), but this is one of my new favourite photos on the Wristies EVER.

[freddy333]

Freakation! Do you guys have Houston's up there too, Freddy?

It looks that way, yes. And it is usually worth the wait.

P.S.: Awesome photo, and watch!

Thank you.

[Victoria]

Well, we'll see. I've never been to Olive Garden, Applebee's only once, and I finally went to the Outback a few Saturdays ago, so I don't hold up much hope for this chain restaurant.

And the only place I'll wait 3 hours, without complaint, is Joe's Stone Crab. Mind you, I never do, since my parents know the owner.
