Stephane Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Hi All, Some great watches in this thread! Started the week this morning by swapping to the 3717 and will wear the VCO for the evening. Tomorrow? I have no idea yet. Cheers Stephane
DemonSlayer Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 After seeing Victoria's photos of this one, I knew I had to get it
subzero1 Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Just got my custom made HBB!! I asked Angus to put a polished ceramic bezel on the "all gold" HBB, along with a smooth rubber strap (to match the smooth dial), and here's the rather impressive result (IMO)!
Victoria Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 After seeing Victoria's photos of this one, I knew I had to get it YAY, you received it. Looks super-elegant, Demon! This is a wonderful hobby, isn't it? I love how we inspire one another. And buying each other's watches is just too freaky. One day, you can wear or strap a watch you have seen many times on the Wristchecks! Hi Deltatahoe. @SZ1: Just saw it. VERY impressive.
POTR Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 I haven't been working for a little while, so I haven't actually been wearing any watches... but I have been cleaning, sorting, storing, admiring.... Anyway, since I haven't felt like eating for a while... (and Vic is providing the food shots today...) I'll slip into Freddy territory and cover... Cover shots. GUB & Grubby Tub... Hey Jimi, where ya' goin' with that Ghost on your hand? Mono-tones for Mono-Stones. Enjoy.
Victoria Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Love the Mamas & The Papas. (One of the few bands of the 60s I can stomach) I liked how you laid out the Glassh

Victoria Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Is everything alright? POTR has been very ill. Pneumonia and other "things". It would be nice if we bucked him up somehow...but how?
TeeJay Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Just got my custom made HBB!! I asked Angus to put a polished ceramic bezel on the "all gold" HBB, along with a smooth rubber strap (to match the smooth dial), and here's the rather impressive result (IMO)! The HBB has never been one of my favorite watches, indeed, often, quite the reverse (although my wife is seldom without her HBB Aspen) But. That watch I like. I've always had a weakness for custom-made/customized things, and that is absolutley awesome
therebel Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Just got this one today. I have a feeling it'll be getting a lot of wrist time.

therebel Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Haha good guess, threw it right in a bowl of it on the kitchen table. I had to take a quick picture and that was the easiest place
lanikai Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 IWC Aquatimer Chrono ss bracelet - aka. Slevin
POTR Posted January 29, 2008 Report Posted January 29, 2008 Is everything alright? Nasty hernia. The contract Doc says, "Due to pre-existing condition, no WC", day-job wants to put me on FML so, probably no UI. So, looking for admin stuff to fill in till I can get another operation. Too bad I've already sold off most of my more valuable watches, the last time... One day, you can wear or strap a watch you have seen many times on the Wristchecks! Psst... wanna buy a vintage Glassh

So, looking for admin stuff to fill in till I can get another operation. Too bad I've already sold off most of my more valuable watches, the last time... Not sure I follow all the acronyms either, but I have a feeling they do not exactly spell good news. Short of buying watches, is there anything we can do to help? Feel free to PM me.
POTR Posted January 29, 2008 Report Posted January 29, 2008 It basically means I am stuck with nothing coming in and about $3500 a month going out...
Nightstroker Posted January 29, 2008 Report Posted January 29, 2008 WC= Workmans Compensation.... FML= Full Medical Leave Sorry to hear all of that POTR... Im strapping on this one tonight....look out ladies!!!! Haw Haw....just kidding This is the real deal....the one on the right.... I hope I got a laugh or two....cell phone wrist watch....lol
Victoria Posted January 29, 2008 Report Posted January 29, 2008 It basically means I am stuck with nothing coming in and about $3500 a month going out... Oh God, I am so sorry, POTR. My father suffered a heart attack early last year. It's awful to see him sit there, his intellect and body being sapped. I'm with Freddy in this -- if you need an ear, PM... @Nightstroker: Thanks for the "translation". And yes, I laughed. It's better than crying.
