      Moser makes such beautiful things and they still have a good sense of humor about it. Love their watches and would love to own one some day.

      Congratulations on yours and a good choice. That green fumé is stunning!

        @bubbapest:

        Well, i got offered the batman 2 mos ago by surprise and jumped on it.  Dont love it.  Been pining over the panerai 1312.  . .  Think i have a transaction or two to make

        If Panerai is your thing, dont let me dissuade you but I’ve had two PAMs (000 & 308) and they were both pretty big and kinda boring to look at. I LOVED them both at first but after a couple months dials just looked so empty & the lug to lug makes wearing slim cuffed shirts a pain.

        I think PAM resale isnt what it used to be either which makes me wonder how well they sell these days. Just my experience/opinion of course for what it’s worth.

        I had a radiomir a couple years back and sold it cause the wire lugs werent the sturdiest and the movement ran fast.  Up until the movement issue i loved wearing it.  Then i had to have the most Accurate TM and fancy and got a datejust.  I like it still but it started running slow.  So fuck it im goin with the designs that catch my eye and tbh i love the crown guard and the curves of the 50s case.  I almost wish it didnt have the date but shrug i dont think theyre gonna make my perfect watch and i gotta just accept it lol.

          @JDelage that Moser is gorgeous, and looks like it was worth the extended wait.

            Thanks. Yes, I feel very fortunate. Coincidentally, this week's going to be heavy on watches for me…

            Apparently the wait for the Streamliner is a lot longer now.

              Great score @JDelage , it's so beautiful and retains a sporty aesthetic. One of the best-looking bracelets in the biz too.

              Think it, be it.

                What a beautiful timepiece @JDelage.  I think it will be a future classic.  You can see some of the the much spoken about integrated Genta designs language reinterpreted in the streamliner series.  The bracelet design is stunning and blends so well into the case, well done Moser!

                Have been trying to view one of these for a while now but no luck.  Harrods in London appear to be the only UK dealer and whenever I have gone in to the store they do not have anything from the streamliner collection to show.  Guessing all these watches just come in and straight out onto a customers wrist.

                  My IronHeart Pinion had been acting a bit off (tight winding, tight setting), so I sent it back to Piers at Pinion for some warranty work. I gotta say, Piers was an A+ pro at getting my watch fixed quickly and effectively and told me what was happening every step of the way. While my watch was in England, he also subbed out the black hand set for a polished set so I can see it easier at work. It looks fantastic and I’m very happy to have it back on my wrist!

                      Thanks Giles, honestly the only painful part of the process was the $220 it cost to ship it…

                          Way beyond my means, but I got to handle this today. Early, possibly unique, Vacheron & Constantin jump hour, quarter repeating pocket watch in the possession of one of my favourite dealers. Absolutely stunning!

                            Digital displays on mechanical watches are cool, and jumping hours are extra cool.

                              Had a very nice surprise call from the London AD I have been using.

                              Picked this up today. Will get some better pictures once I get it home.

                                  And I came into an immaculate 1970's AirKing for a steal the other day and thought I'd done well 🙂

                                      My Grandad gave this watch to me probably about 8 years ago now before he passed away.
                                      Only worn it a few times spends most of its days in the box.
                                      Love the age and the character planning on looking after it..
                                      Should really look at getting a watch winder.

                                        This is very cool, especially so because he was able to pass on the box & papers. Is that a watch you saw him wear?

                                            @Jcaz6996 really nice to have something like this in wearable condition. I hung on to my dad’s Omega and papers for sentimental reasons but the case is completely buggered and it doesn’t run. It would need so much replacing that it would end up not being his watch, assuming I can even find someone who’s comfortable working with a tuning fork movement.
