Watches - another OCD problem

[Heavy Duty]

Finally picked one of these up few months back

 

And  it's funny with all this talk of Panerai's on here  as i'm looking at one being my next purchase either a 188 or 196.

i haven't read through this whole thread, but figured i'd contribute.

I have a Tag Heuer Aquaracer.  My wife rules and she surprised me with it a couple years ago.

The Milgauss is a sweet watch.  I think it may be the coolest Rolex I've ever seen.  I love the second hand on that thing.

Thanks Chris. I am a big fan of the original Milgauss which i first became aware of back in  '03 so when this 'new' one was first announced i was over the moon my favourite thing about it has to be the green sapphire, so subtle but just sets the watch off perfectly.  I am giving serious thought to giving mine the DLC treatment.

Anyone know anything about this brand?.. Love the design. Might purchase just to be able to switch between the Weil and this'un…

That's an excellent brand Seul, you can't go wrong. They do a nice chrono variant as well.

They do a pretty good digital as well called the Mega 1000

Shit Baracuta, I hope you get addicted to Iron Heart too…...........

[Seul]

Yeah - I foresee the next IH workcar being a Rolls Royce Phantom if he does…

Dibs on becoming the houseboy/ butler/ barman at the castle!..

What with Beats in the basement chained to Unity, chain stitching like a maddened beast?  She'd keep you busy, I'm sure she would be very demanding of a Belgian houseboy/ butler/ barman…...G

[baracuta61]

giles theres a good chance that i will become addicted to IH, i guess it depends how well those jeans i ordered fit when they arrive! i would have bought stuff before now but i am a fat git and you didn't used to have big enough sizes!

[Beatle]

Seul, I'd make you deliver drinks every other minute…

[Giles]

The shipment that your jeans are in was split over 2 cartons.  I got the carton that did not contain your jeans today.  I am pretty sure the 2nd carton will appear tomorrow.  If so, you will have 'em Weds….G

[baracuta61]

thats great, i wasn't expecting them for weeks! i know it's pathetic but i'm really excited to see what they are like (i've never seen a pair of iron heart jeans in the flesh). please let them fit.

Oh - so you'd be drinking at my pace… Hell I'll just keep some bottles downstairs and listen to you ratatattt all day long then.

[Giles]

The room that houses Unity is actually the old servants room, and the wine cellar is next door.  Soundslike a perfect arrangement….................G

getting back to watches here are a few more of mine. all of the cronographs have the same movement in them (valjoux 7750) which makes it suprising how different they are and how much the prices can vary.

I like a lot of your watches. But can you tell me something more about this crazy'un?..

[baracuta61]

well it's part of a range of watches made by corum called bubble watches begause the glass over the face bulges out like a bubble. there are lots of different designs, this one was a limited addition from 2003 called casino (for obvious reasons) i love the watch and the box it came in. here are a few more pics.

[Seul]

My sweet Pig in heaven - look at all those details… How much did this'un set you back?.. If that isn't too indiscrete a question...
