treated my-self to a speedy pro for the birthday, arrived today and i am very happy with it

sorry in advance about the crappy iphone pics

Happy Birthday and congrats on the Speedy!

My simple watch. Debating getting a Stowa Flieger no date no logo next (which is what I originally wanted but wasn't willing to spend that much):

Nice choice...and remember there is always next time, and the time after that, and the time after that....it never ends. Good luck with your next watch purchase.

Haha thanks. Hopefully the next watch is the last one. Watches are one of the few accessories that I'd prefer to have one of and use all the time (ie like my wallet) instead of switching back and forth.

Wishing you luck with that. Most of us who frequent this thread haven't been able to live by the 1 watch for all uses idea. Actually, now that I think about it I have more than 1 wallet. Oh well, resistance is futile but good luck!

It's even worse than that for me. Usually the scratching of one itch leads to the scratching of another. I tend to buy in twos.

Ah the 3919. One of my first Pateks. Don't miss it much but I have find memories of it.

Sorry I've been AWOL my TWAT brethren. Am enjoying a little time off from the cold.

The right photo to put the light a dazzling model ... congratulations on your purchase.

I too miss Cylon and Derek.

Im still around! My new role keeps me away from my computer unfortunately. Before i was sitting in front of it 8-10 hours a day so posting was a breeze. I miss hanging around.

Derek pointed me in the right direction for watch shops in Nashville and then he disappeared.  

How'd that go? make any purchase? Next time you venture out to any of the shops shoot me a PM...id love to browse and grab some food

He's behind you.

@DerekS

That's not optimal when watch shopping given his purchasing strategy.

 

[DerekS]



i really love this. the XV or XVI is on my short list...maybe the watch after my next purchase.

 

[DerekS]



Haha thanks. Hopefully the next watch is the last one. .

if i had a dollar fro every time I've said that id have enough to fund another watch

I'd kop a used Daytona over the JLC but similar to Stitchy...I iz Crown Fanboi

I fought this for awhile, but I'm at peace with myself now. I am a HUGE crown fanboi. but with good reason. having owned as many watches as i have, i think my fanboi-ness comes from a lot of experience. Im also a huge panerai fan too...but thats just because they're such fun watches and i really loved the panerai community.
