Watches - another OCD problem
-
Does it pair well with more tailored shirting?
No friggin idea…..
But, what I can say, is that when it is not on my wrist, I feel bereft…...
I'll be in LA next week end - come play...........
-
The Speedy is undeniably more dressy. But the Blancpain just feels like an extension of me….
Let me just add. One of my closest friends knows more about watches than most mere mortals know about themselves. I asked him what watch I should get, he asked me a few questions about my lifestyle, and the answer was "50 fathoms, and don't dick around with crystal back - a major point of failure"

That thing has some HEFT to it. As for coming down to LA… I'll see what I can do. I'd love to meet you and the crew IRL.

Still set for a BBQ at GAH HQ on the 5th, right?

I used to have a true behemoth: a Breitling Superocean that was 43.5 mm and 16mm thick (or something like that). A hockey puck on the wrist. I actually had a custom dress shirt made while I owned it and had the cuff made XL just for that wrist
Sounds like the BP isn't as hefty. Would love to see it IRL if you'll have it on you next weekend in LA!

Speaking of hockey pucks! My wife decided to surprise me with something I’ve eyeballed for a long time but couldnt justify…. an MR-G. We went with kachi-iro colorway because it goes with my blue and black wardrobe the easiest and IMO is just beautiful.

Laurent Ferrier is making the buzz with their new integrated bracelet sport model, the lovely, blue dial Sport Auto. Clearly inspired by the Tourbillon Grand Sport, but considerably cheaper at only (hm…) CHF46,000.

Lovely! I love everything but whatever is going on around the date window and I can't make my mind up on whether the crown fits the aesthetic. But the numerals in the date window are attractive. The hands, indices, case, bracelet, movement… beautiful!
-
Everything LF does is exquisite. Especially the movement
-
Yeah–I mean look closely at the jewels even...
-
Largest one I still own - 46.3mm. Haven't worn it in a while though. The only world timer I've ever seen with San Francisco representing Pacific Time instead of LA.
Maybe we do a group wrist shot on Saturday @Giles ?
