The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread

[gaf1958]

I've just bought the dial for this to allow me to do the conversion. Just need the watch and hands now

Kind of like this one Magnus? It's a 3590.50 (861 movement) with the panda dial, black hands and red Alaska Project second hand fitted...

You guys are evil.


It will be Damasko chrono vs Sinn chrono (EZM13/103) when the time comes.

There was a guy here who really lurved his Damasko and wrote a fantastic piece about it at the time

Thanks for the thread link Winnie, not seen it before and reminds me of all the good reasons why I've ordered a Damasko.

Your one is nice! I've got the standard dial without the red date though.

Well, at least the Damasko is with a farmer in Ireland who is using it well.

Have had a small but totally unexpected windfall of a couple of hundred quid and am probably going to indulge my long-standing desire for a B-Uhr watch.

Front-runner at the moment, value for money being the biggest priority, is a Steinhart Nav B-Uhr Type B in 44mm size:



I realize it breaks my "no automatics" rule, but maybe I'll give them one last chance (Steinhart do handwound watches, but not of this particular model).

Love the colour this

How about a Laco? Available in 42mm or 45mm, Automatic or Hand Wound

A very nice shade of blue , a lovely looking watch .

[MiniMpi]

Having seen it briefly in the airport, I ventured into town this morning to have a proper look:



For me, it's a strangely attractive watch and different to anything else in my collection. The fluted bezel and overall dressy feel are normally things I would avoid, but this is a stunner - especially the pie-pan dial and good mix of practical features (lume, good contrast, 100m WR).

As for the movement, I think Omega are advancing the technical aspects of movements faster than other mainstream makers - and that aspect is also appealing.

I'm loving this one Richard !
