Understand the company has just folded, but always had an eye on their fliegers.
This feels and looks incredibly well built, so very happy with this (impulse) purchase

I fancied a bit of a change for the new year so have ordered this:
and this:
Both a bit different from my usual style.
They haven't folded as I am led to believe, they are currently being 'restructured' and an ongoing business, as far as I am aware. My B42 Official Cosmonauts is still my most worn watch in my small collection. Yours looks lovely BTW.Just picked this Fortis up.

Well I hope they survive the restructure, and manage to build the brand as well. This is one of the most solid built watches I've ever owned!
£20 well spent :)
This arrived a few days ago. Not had a chance to try it on yet.

Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda Metrographe just sneaked in before the deadline. Not much talk on the forum about this brand
Lume is pretty funky on this one
Stock picture of the rear as my dodgy iPhone picture doesn’t do it justice. Hermes strap finishing it off nicely.

It’s so comfy to wear you forget your wearing it, excuse the quick photo I’ll have to dig out the macro lens for some better pictures

Lovely watch and I am a big fan of the brand. Bit pricey for me new though and you don't see the movie omen up often second hand. Enjoy it's a beauty

Thanks I am to. They make lovely pieces and yes they are a bit pricey but the quality is outstanding.
What was you saying about the second hand, omen?

A new brand to me until recently when a colleague showed me his Tonda with a white dial and small seconds - stunning watch and the movement looks great. Will be keeping a close eye for a used model to crop up!Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda Metrographe just sneaked in before the deadline. Not much talk on the forum about this brand

Absolutely gorgeous watches, and I was actually drooling over them yesterday is Regent Street WoS!
In fact, a friend of mine owns a couple so I've seen them up close on a number of occasions. Top quality fit and finish and just a little quirkiness to make them even more interesting.
They are really stunning. A great addition to my collection and something different from the norm.

I agree and that’s what got me interested. A little different and made by a maker that could be considered a master, if not grand master given all of the awards Parmigiani wins at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève.

Latest additions presents from my partner a bit late, but after the rush of Christmas, I have finally sat down to play with my Christmas watches from my partner. Really glad to have the LV back in the fold, as it is one watch that I loved and regretted selling. Wont be selling this again. First time for a DJ 36 and actually its the one watch I have worn over the most of Christmas a wrist shot from Christmas day.

If my other half gave me this many watches as pressies I’d leave her because surely she’s cheating on me😳😳😂

Just ordered a 116300 with Rhodium Arabic dial was not planning to order anything yet. New year resolution out of the window.
That is amazing, I love it but just did not have the funds to hand when it became available.Overjoyed would be an understatement!
Wear in good health and enjoy.

Very nice Tony, was that the one Kash listed.
This is my latest:
A couple of quick and dirty photos of my new Jean Richard Terrascope. At 44mm quite big on my wrist, but pretty comfortable. It's quite difficult to show the lightly brushed and polished surfaces off properly.
Suits you Sir!
A new arrival last night and one that arrived through the post this morning.
A late afternoon shopping trip ended with this.
This arrived through the post.
Been itching to try one of these for quite a while...
