The Watch Thread - Part 3

[hwaa]

sorry for asking noob question here:

if i were to get those nato straps online, to get it fixed onto the watch MYSELF is no different from fixing those leather straps hoh?

its abit different from those leather straps. the spring bar has to be inserted first, then the nato straps goes thru it. i think youtube sure have videos demo,

My final pc will be pp once I hit my target.

But by then I will look around for the final pc.

Just wondering how fine and details a watch can go.

U still got those "unknown" brand.......................

Brand that never heard before one..................

 

[Jeremy1]

Transparent casebacks....There is a rumour that AP plans to do this for their 42mm refresh as well

That will be good new for small wrist people like me...................

I also hope they will also look at the crown on the side. Maybe changed them to the flat one.......................

Maybe can just find a nice chit chat cafe and let the watches do all the talking. Sharing knowledge, interesting watch stories, targets for 2014, etc.

Actually I feel more like a poison feeding session..

met someone incredible last night (watch collector, not another woman).

was at a party organized by my boss. met this guy who looked like your usual kopitiam uncle (yes, the uncle who asks what you wanna drink).

He showed me an IWC in rose gold on his wrist - apparently it was LE to...28 pieces? And in gold (sorry, not an IWC fan so dunno which model....but its face was quite plain) then my boss joined us. The guy continued to talk about his other watches - two Mb&f, three Urwerks, being invited for SIHH, F1 ferrari pit, etc...... I asked him about RM and he declared his dislike for them. He then told me once he's got his hands on a minute repeater he'd have collected all possible complications. His collection is around 3mil. Basically his stories are very interesting and I just enjoyed listening to them.

He left about an hour later and I gave my boss the is-this-guy-serious look. He then told me yes, this guy meant what he said. He just doesn't dress up for ANY occasion.

power.

ooo...

I feel RM watches don't look nice at all. won't even consider taking a second look. haha.
