Thread: Is yours the only one here on TZ-UK?

  1. #401
    Doubt there's another one of these one on here - 1967 Grand Seiko self dater purchased from Guy about 6 weeks ago

    I believe the dial has been refinished black and hence, its uniqueness is due to it not being original

    This is the only one in the world!! It is a Schauer Kulisse where I have asked Jorg to replace the squared bezel with an angled one, and to blue the bezel screws to match the hands.

    My pics are held hostage by Photobucket, so here's a pic from MKII's own collection (of my watch)

    Are you thinking about the planned new release?

    I’m pretty sure that there won’t be another one of these on here:

    I think you're right but I believe I have a colleague in Amman who has one.
    In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.

    Hehe.

    I’d be intrigued to hear what he/she was given their’s for.

    I believe it was more a case of who he knows rather than anything he did. When I was shown it, it was living in the glovebox of his car. He's not a WIS.

    Is yours the only one here on TZ-UK?

    I think I have the only one of these, seen some of the Black Shield Tudor Fastrider’s here, but not the scrambler ones especially in green...

    Well this is a one of one - a Schofield Rare Thing!

    A Schofield beater in a stainless steel bead blasted case instead of bronze with a double blue dial and an exhibition back.

    I don't know what you want me to tell you but here goes:

    This is a 2004 model 3713-33 (also known as the Spitfire Doppelchronograph) which originally came on a strap and deployant; I sourced the model correct bracelet which I think suits it really well.
    The watch is 42mm x 16.2mm and is water resistant to 60m.
    The movement is an IWC 79230, based on the Val 7750.

    The Doppelchronograph, double chronograph or rattrapante, has an additional split-seconds hand which runs behind the stopwatch hand. The split-seconds hand can be stopped independently using the third pusher at 10 o’clock while the stopwatch hand continues to run. If the third pusher is pushed again the split-seconds hand catches up and is synchronized with the stopwatch hand. The purpose is to enable the user to record two separate times within any given minute. When reset it is then possible to record a new intermediate time.

    That is the info I wanted. I couldn’t place the age of the watch. Thanks!

    Let me guess.
    Is your surname Incabloc?

    Girard Perregaux High Frequency chronometer Gyrodate.

    I'm not aware of having seen any of these here before. Some were acquired through forum members, but still unique here, I think

    I can’t say for certain but I think so:

    top 500 names

  35. #435
    I think this is unique on the forum, other similar ones perhaps?
    a Monin cased Oriosa recently brought back to life by Brendan after numerous failed attempt elsewhere!

  36. #436
    And here's a lovely little pilot style watch built up by the excellent Schmollgruber of Innsbruck using a 2824 movement in a blast finished case
    i've since fitted blued sword hands of Stowa pattern. This one is unique.


  37. #437
    Tutima 1941 Fliegerchronograph, (manual wound adaptation of a 7750 iirc.)
    A bit cheeky as I no longer own this one, but as far as I'm aware there were very few made in 18kt gold, so worthy of an entry maybe?
    if nothing else it holds my own lowball record- I put it on sc years ago for about £2500 and someone offered £1200!

    Here's a few more that I doubt anyone else has.

    The funny thing is we all have expensive watches that have not a hope of being novel, it is only the more moderately priced stuff that is rare in reality.

    I think there might be other Dunhill Facet owners here, but I wonder if anyone has this model - the millennium limited edition, released in the year 2000 (2000 numbered pieces)





    And this - Dunhill cushion-cased, hand winder released for the company's centenary in 1993. This only gets an outing with a dinner jacket.

    Waldhoff Vanguard V8 (adding name so it can be searched). Chinese tourbillon but less gaudy than a lot of the usual Chinese tourbillons appearing on Kickstarter.
