More Genta Love

[dluddy]

Just picked up a couple of outstanding MBK Patek's, the Aquanaut and Nautilus to round out my Genta Family. Could the AP Royal Oak be next

These have been expertly reviewed by others including Euno and Ubi so I will just show some Pics.

The Genta Family

The Aquanaut

The Nautilus

Guess which one I'm wearing today?

The Nautilus

3/21/08 OK, a quick update to add the MBK AP Royal Oak to complete the Genta collection.

Beutiful collection.. Wear them well

[dadog13]

really great collection...for me the nicest is the PP Nautilus, just have to love that dial...I miss that one in my collection, but definitely sooner or later I will buy one...

wear them well and enjoy them!

[emuozz]

Very nice collection

[torresp]

Very nice aquanaut. Is the jumbo version or the "standard" 36mm one?. Could you post some pics of the date wheel at 27 or 15?

Thanks in advance and congrats!

[deltatahoe]

very nice pics my friend; congrats on your new pieces

oddly enough, the nautilus just doesn't do it for me. i think i'm going to have to see one in person before i understand people's love of these

the aquanaut on the other hand i think i could get used to....particularly on a nice leather or alligator strap :smile:

Very Nice Genta collection.

Since purchasing the MBK Nautilus, it is the ONLY watch I wear.

Still need to get the APRO jumbo.

Wear them well.

Now that is a collection to aspire to one day own ! The Best of the Best !

[eunomians]

Lovely collection!

[hambone]

Superb collection. Compliments on your good taste.

@emuozz It is Sapphire Display Back

@Torresp - Datwheel shot as requested - It is standard 38MM w/o Crown size. There is no MBK rep (or any rep) of a Jumbo Aquanaut to my knowledge

Brilliant.

Have you ever posted a photo of your entire collection... or are you like me, trying to keep it compact?

Don't have a Wide angle lens BT

My collection is not compact but I am slowly weeding out the non-keepers and modding the ones I can't see ever getting sick of.

I've always owned just 5-8 reps at the same time. Actually I'm much happier with smaller number of watches (so all get regular wrist time, even once or twice a month).

If I count everything, I have owned 35+, but I'm well aware that these numbers still make me look like an amateur here. Would like to see your collection dluddy.

That's a great collection. The Nautilus is a standout! Hard to take off....

[emuozz]

Thanks for the case back pic

I really not sure but I think that the MBK is the rep of the big version of the aquanaut since the regular version it

[dluddy]

You are correct. My mistake. The MBK is the 5065 "Jumbo" model at 38.1MM

[Corgi]

The crown in your nautilus is different from the crown in mine. Mine is MBK - is yours?

From Paso - what is different Corgi?

[warbody]

Lovely collection !

Feel identified with this one

[manuel]

there is a gen aquanaut with solid caseback.

I saw it in ebay.

[archibald]

A great collection. Who said the 70's were the Dark Ages of design? Whoever it was they were wrong, at least when it comes to watches.

BTW, has anyone ever run accross a list of high end watches Genta designed? Wonder if he ever did anything for Cartier, JLC, etc...

[ehtolcad]

Fantastic collection, quality and quantitiy wise. Wear the well!

Hi.

Could someone point me in the right direction for an Aquanaut just like the one posted? I had a look on trustys site but the hands are different there..

Could Precious Time get these?

[Victoria]

Mods, Tom:

Rather fey observation but it's been puzzling me -- Tom Hawkes' ID is the only one which has icons of all his ratings, to date, under each post. Is this a known glitch?

EDIT: Actually, I have to correct myself.

Even more bizarrely, the ratings reflect neither those given him, nor those he gave to others. If you click on the rating icon next to the ID, you'll see it. "List" is also ghosted.
