AMAZING pix!!! thank you very much.
i was hoping you would post a shot or two of the Seventies, and you went well beyond! very nice. that watch isn't just smiling at me, it's screaming and beating me over the head. in real life, does the date function blend with the watch? it seems a tad large in the photos. the black dial seems like pure class, while the blue seems like something unique and special (but, maybe a bit too bold for daily wear?). very nice. also, agreed, the Sixties Tourbillon is gorgeous.....thanks for that. and those mosers! seem quite classy and well done. thanks for expanding my mind a bit. |

2001 ?? (10 years, that's pretty long wait... )
I wouldn't say no to that World Timer. What a fantastic timepiece! Tack så mycket Jocke. Detta är alltid lika uppskattat! Cheers, Joe

Wow thanks for the pics!
This pic actually drew my attention towards the 39mm Explorer(Is this a new release of the current 39mm or the same one?) rather then the new Explorer II as the 39mm looks really stunning there! |

Nice report!
I agree the Tudors could have done better this year, but how about that NATO strap on the chronograph? Perfectamundo!

Greta stuff Jocke, love reading the report. I like the shot with you wearing 2 watches and 2 sweaters whilst driving. It must have been very cold
