Wow, Hans, that is heck of a nice collection, there isn't one there I don't like (well, except the Rolex, sorry), good to see CW watches holding their own in more expensive company. That Nomos is just gorgeous, similar to a Stowa, what diameter is the face?
Hans, I don't normally like Omegas, but yours is definitely growing on me.
I can't help but notice you have 5 CWs. Are you a CW employee or something? I seem to recall that if you own every model of CW you are technically an employee. And while it is true that there are more models than you have, certainly with 5, you must be on the take somehow. Oh wow, I just realized I have 5 Seikos. Two monsters (one orange/one black), two sawtooths (one orange/one blue), and one kinetic. I must be a Seiko employee. Where is my paycheck?
Non-CW:
2 Seiko quartz 7T92's and a Seiko 5 7s36-based automatic wannabe diver, which occasionally can be very accurate, but doesn't seem to be very consistent.
a Casio G-Shock. Type designation unknown, but it is a solar-powered digital Wave-Ceptor. This is the watch I wear when I boldly leap where watches fear to tread. It's also my egg-timer, and benchmark for The Correct Time.
a watch of unknown origin, which was a gift from my employer. Quartz with rubber strap and built-in 128MB USB-stick.
a Citizen quartz chronograph
a quartz watch of unknown origin - black face and case, gold hands, nou hour markers, with only a Citroën-logo (the double-chevron) on the dial, which was given to me as a present by my wife.
and the non-CW-watch I wear most often:
an Omega Genève automatic, which I inherited from my gramps in 1966, and which (after an overhaul in 2005) is still going strong, and which is my most accurate automatic.
CW:
Malvern Automatic: 2 (GKG no serial, which is in my avatar, and SWT #276)
C4: the Red (#24)
Kingfisher: 2 (both LE autos, #24 and #32).
Man with one watch, always know time. Man with many watches, never sure. (unidentified Chinese philosopher)
Hans, I like all of yours, CW or not, but especially the Revue Thommen.
I like a nice watch, but dont know the ins and outs of it all, and haven't come accross that make before, but do like that watch
Going to try and take some piccys of my 'not very illustrious' watch collection to amaze you all.....not now that Ive got a new macro lens for my DSLR.
