Re: scooter - April 2016
Didn't realise you had so many!!!
Sub and Scooter blue are just spot on, but the Giugiaro Seiko is most a most interesting looking watch.
I also love the pocket watches. So much history there.
Not that there was anything wrong with your previous photos, but the lights and tent make one hell of a difference!! Bloody awesome photos and the sub one is amazing.

Where have you been hiding the pocket watches? Not seen them mentioned before.
Overall a lovely collection that goes to prove 'less is more'.

Re: scooter - April 2016
Great photos Scooter. I like that you led with the Scooter Blue, it's a great watch, as is the Sub. I used to own a Giugiaro Seiko like yours, but in orange; the the blue is probably a better look though. I have to say, I also like the last hunter style pocket watch, I think it's a classic.
A question Scooter... I know you have said many times that since you've found your Sub, you've become a one watch man, although I recall seeing the Tissot and maybe the Wittnauer on NCWOTD. Do you wear any of the others often?

Re: scooter - April 2016
Good pics indeed! The Sub is naturally the one that catches my eye. Don't know much about pocket watches but the Waltham and Gruen look lovely.

Re: scooter - April 2016
Amazing the difference a light tent makes! Excellent collection of watches, scooter. Of course, the Submariner stands out but there's plenty of other good stuff on show.

Re: scooter - April 2016
Lovely collection scooter. The light tent certainly makes a difference. I had almost forgotten about those wonderful pocket watches. Thanks for sharing.

The light tent looks to have been a good investment. Good collection and I always like seeing pics of your scooter blue and Submariner.
