Happy 2015 ...
First watch on my wrist, in 2015: Omega Seamaster 300 Master: Wrist shots in near real time: Glorious blue sky, love the reflexes: Not new picture but first time here: A wonderful 2015 to all, Nilo ...
This one looks great on your wrist! :)
I really like the SM300 tribute in photos, but was not really excited when I saw it in real. Must have a second look to decide if this is really for me or not... Happy 2015! Best Blomman
I had the same feeling...
Blomman, Two issues: 1) The extra bling on the SS bracelet (A common problem IMHO On most brands). 2) The deadly wrong "hard" lights on ALL boutiques and ADs. Easy to solve and you have one great watch. Cheers, Nilo
I like you background for sure
The foreground looks pretty amazing. Best for 2015. Bill
Tennies propped up against a wall . . .
. . . with the Med in the background - only Patrice could pull that one off! :-)
Great choice, my friend! :)
The Red is a beautiful choice to both end and start a new year! :) Best Blomman
Looks so warm P@trice
It's been -12 °C here since Monday...No wind so I don't mind a little winter. Happy New Year! -- Richard.
Two watches that were both involved in the New Year
events! The Vacheron Overseas was for the day events and performed flawlessly with toting cases of wine and champagne. The JLC was the evening watch to see the perpetual do its thing, over the first hour of the New Year. I must confess that I missed the y...
I couldn't stay up to watch the perpetual change either :-)
Just glad to see the change occur without error! Best, Mike
Grand Memovox...
A watch we not often see here. Great pair for the task! All the best for 2015! Blomman
I caught mine . . .
. . . right in the act, Tim. Just a minute before midnight, too. Unfortunately, no evidence to share . . . bad lighting, and preoccupied, besides. :-)
I would be a fool to complain not having changed my watch for 3 days!
Have a splendid year, friends. Nicolas ...
Aaahhh.. The coffee shot.. And the Coke one.. Love both, Ahemm.. + the watch !!
.. Can absolutely relate to that .. Some pieces seem to be glued to our wrists & hearts .. Let's have a Great New Year ! Best, hs
I wouldn´t thought about changing watches with such a beauty on my wrist...
... my dear Nicolas! I wish you have a great start of this New Year my friend! All the best for you and your family! Un abrazo afectuoso, Abel.
One thing about that Vlad...
He likes classic pieces! :-) Happy New Year Nicolas! -- Richard.
Last in the Old & First in the New Year !.. Hopefully a good one for all !! :))
.. Why ? - She has been my last modern catch in 2014, and she reminds us on an iconic tic-tac of LGM .. I truly love my Geophysic 1958 (TT) !! Clean appeal, noble sobriety and balanced elegance - For me a watch for all seasons ! Geophysic 1958 : Happy New...
Of course it had to be this one :)
If you look closely, you will just make out the leap year indicator, below the word Original showing ½ black (old year) and ½ white (new year) The change has begun All done for another year, the leap year indicator, is now showing all white. URL=] [/URL...
Love it. Been in love with GO perpetuals ever since I saw one on Art's wrist. Thanks for
sharing. Happy 2015, Mike
The TT Geophysic! :)
Great way to go! Our next community watch here in the forum?! :) All the best for 2015! Blomman
Never catch you with your 3 Vintage ones !.. If TT-Geo allowed, maybe one for many !?
.. PS: PM sent just now with a kind Q... hs :)
A watch for all seasons, to be sure. Not many . . .
. . . can be 'instant classics'; the modern incarnation of the Geophysic is . Happy New Year, h! Art
So cool... the number of perpetuals being worn
on New Years. It makes sense and I shouldn't be surprised but I am! Great IWC and it looks like a great time on the water. Happy 2015 Mike
Very cool countdown!
Looks like you are having a good time! :) All the best for 2015! Blomman
Great start to the year Mike!
For me I started the year bringing my kids to their kindergarten. With my nautilus and its amazing blue grey dial :) Cheers Robin ...
You always surprise me with something new!
The PP looks great on your wrist, it fits nice... Best,Mike Happy 2015
Thanks Mike!
Happy 2015 to you too! Indeed the Nautilus has one of the nicest bracelet in terms of comfort and fit Cheers Robin
Love the "old school" blancpain. Is it about the same
vintage as the bubbly? Happy 2015! Thanks for sharing, Mike
Thanks for your
kind comments. The watch was bought on new year"s day 10 years ago---in 2005! ----- so it is usually on my wrist during that time of year. best of 2015 to you henry
You won't remember the night either :-) Great jump hour!
I like the vintage MLs a lot. Cheers, Mike
To open in not the problem....
It is if you finish it, the night will be over...! ;) All the best for 2015! Blomman
All the best, Mike...
...to you and yours for a safe and prosperous 2015. Love the Andersen! Unfortunately, Mrs pplater has Very. Firm. Ideas. about the way in which one should spend the Christmas/New Year break. Paintbrushes, shovels and hoses feature large in that scenario. ...
Your "honey do" list sounds a lot like mine whenever I take a
"Vacation" :-) Definitely a good pairing to keep you company during al the hard work Happy 2015! Warmest, Mike
Pplater, I get some Bond vibes here...
But he used Walter PPK, not shovels and hoses...! ;) Hope you will get some real rest later this year! All the best for 2015! Blomman
Wishing all my friends here an awesome and successful 2015,
Wishing all my friends here an awesome and successful 2015, filled with comradeship and celebration (including non-watch related experience) Was on holiday and now back in Hong Kong - the first metal I reached for was : All the best, -- Seeks ...
Aaargh! You know how much I love this one?
I am running after a Cloisonné one, but hey, a Mercator is a Mercator. A charmful Watch, a piece of Poetry. Best, Nicolas
The Cloisonné version is outstanding, second to none!
The Cloisonné version is outstanding, second to none! Will PM you if good condition ones appear in this part of the world. Best regards, -- Seeks

Awesome wrist shot! I was so close to getting one a few years ago
now full of regrets! Thanks for sharing happy 2015 Mike
Hi Mike
I know the feeling my friend! This one was near impossible to say no to, over a long period of time:) Thank for sharing your time and posts with us all esp in 2014! Best wishes for a prosperous and healthy New Year :) — Seeks
Hi Blomman
Hi there dear Blomman, Thanks for looking and this one deserves som wrist time but somehow last year,the 1966 is a tad ahead for a daily beater :) Still, 2015 is another year :) Wishing you the grandest GP’est year yet! — Seeks
Very happy to hear that the GP 1966 ....
Was preferred before the VC! ;) I wish you the same, dear Seeks! Let's wish for a fantastic GP 2015! :) Best Blomman
New Year's watch
I celebrated the move into 2015 with my GP Type 375, Ref 8052. A very sophisticated companion to start the year. Happy New Year to all, CC PS: sorry, I was not able to take a photo on 31-Dec / 1-Jan so had to pull this from my archive. ...
Great companion for the New Year. I think the
case proportions are just right on your wrist. Thanks for sharing Mike
A very powerful start of the year! :)
Hope you will have a great 2015, my friend! :) All the best to you and yours Blomman
I start the New Year the same way I ....
Ended last year! :) Happy 2015 to all! Best Blomman ...

:-) Hope all is well with you and the family. Especially a great New Year with the boy :-) He'll be running you around next year at this time. Best, Mike
You can read minds...?! ;)
Thank you, my friend! Yes, really looking forward to see Junior running around! :) All the best to you and yours for 2015! Blomman
Why change a good thing blomman?
Just as nice in 2015 as 2014 :-) Happy New Year! -- Richard.
Happy New Year, Richard! :)
You are absolutely correct! Why changes something that works! ;) Best Blomman
Starting the New Year with this one
Acquired on December 31 and on my wrist today! A JLC Futurematic with rare dial and hands, 37mm, in splendid condition. Happy New Year, everyone! Best, Gary ...
That is just perfect

Apologies!
I didn't want to bother you during the holiday season. I expect to see you in two weeks' time, however! All the best, Gary
That is a great start, Gary!
But watch out - the vintage JLC is a slippery slop.... Do your homework before go in to deep! Best Blomman
Wow! Looks like the treasure hunt was a success. Can't wait
to see it in the metal. Best, Tim
Rolex 1675 gilt to start the new year.
Not my usual ocean background but it will have to do. Best for 2015 ...
Paris?
Second most usual background :) All the best to you and all yours in 2015 dear Bill Cordially Damjan
Sharp eye
You always have a keen sense. Best wishes to you and the family for 2015 Bill
Where is Bill? I like you in situ wrist shot. It always gets me wondering
where you are. Happy 2015 Mike
Started with these
Hi I started the new year with this pair Been wearing both for a while, especially as just got Master Moon back. Think I might be migrating to something different soon from the Oris Cheers JML ...
Nice Duo.. Especially love the Master Moon ! .. Happy 2015 !
My Master Moon sends greetings !! HAGWE & Happy New Year ! Best, hs ...
Paying homage to our dearest friend.
With a favorite of our dear friend. Rolex 1675 gilt. Best wishes to our dear friend Nicola. Bill ...
Minerva/JLC
Minerva on the last day of 2014, Jaeger-LeCoultre today Best Regards Livius ...
I really like that composed 3rd photo with both watches
together. Thanks for sharing and happy 2015! Cheers, Mike
An Omega for the end of the year celebration, very appropriate
Thanks for sharing Miki, Happy 2015, Mike
Monogrammed sleeves? . . .
. . . wow, Miki - stylin' on the Eve! With a vintage big lug Seamaster, no less ;-) . . .
beautiful Andersen
wow, nice piece! Busy today after a lazy 1st so did not get around to take a new picture but my beloved Resonance is on the wrist today Happy new year to all of you Andreas ...
Twin resonances . . .
. . . or resonant twins? Happy new year to you too, Andreas. And yes, I know the Everlys aren't twins ;-) . . .
Notice the difference . . .
. . . other than day, date, and month? Glashütte Original Karrée perpetual to ring in the New Year, Mike! Best, Art ...
I've always liked that discreet leap year indicator
Happy 2015 Art! Hopefully I can make it out to the west coast this year. Best, Mike
Karrées aren't for everyone, and truthfully . . .
. . . there's a small audience for them, h. A person either 'gets' them, or they don't. It's not a watch for the cognoscenti, the obsessed, or the watch-surfer, always in search of the perfect wave. Its inherent character . . . . . . is solitude. If, by c...
Family gathering at the nearby hotel....
... and this one is the first batter of the year! At the new year's eve dinner... Happy new year, everyone! Ken ...
Happy New Years Ken! Love the white strap option
I think it matches the dial details very well. Warmest, Mike
Yeah, I love the new version strap set!
easy to attach, detach, and nice colors. ABR is now more fun to wear! Ken
High Tech start to 2015
Simply love the new Casio PRW-6000...Best ProTrek yet :-) Happy New Year Everyone! -- Richard. ...
-5.3 Cº? . . .
. . . chilly! Freezing cold in So Cal these last few days, too, Richard. Parked outside Friday night, and awakened to find ice on the windshield for the first time in memory.
Thanks Richard, Happy 2015! Sporting a
quartz Precisionist this morning....a Christmas gift from the wife. I've set it to NIST this morning will see what it looks like at the end of the day. Best, Mike
Beautiful Andersen
Just a Fantastic Piece and Great Story on it. Still wearing my VH Classic Every Day. S ...
Beauty! Thanks for the additional pic
I had one in YG, sold it as the funds were needed for more important things....one day I'll get another for the collection. Warmest, Mike
You're a Lucky Man Mike
the Yellow Gold is the rarest Classic and I personally think could be the best one out of them, the color lends well to the design and on a light brown croco would look so amazing. If I ever come across one I'll send you a PM Be Well :-) S
Golden start with vintage Connie
Hi Mike, as our weather over here in Germany is the straight opposite to golden I brighten it up with this blinking vintage Connie and a star-shaped golden box of chocolates. A happy New Year to you and all fellow purists around the globe! anaesdoc ...
It is unseasonally clear here in Maine this past week
I can see my lawn, minimal snow accumulation on the ground....which is unusual. But the weather channel said there will be a storm tonight...maybe tomorrow the kids can finally go sledding. Cheers and happy 2015 Mike
Thanks, hs11, for your good wishes and for complimenting my Connie!
Your TTGeophysic is stunning. If it only were a bit more reasonably priced ... The golden box of chocolates is not our last resource of sweets, so we will be able to treat winter depression a bit with them! All the best for you in 2015, anaesdoc
Serenity . . .
. . . personified. There's something special about Omega Constellations from the '50s, and yours hits all the high notes - precious, pie-pan, arrowheads, and completely original. Happy New Year to you and yours, Andreas. Warmest, Art
Serenity - if I would only be more like my watch!
Thanks, Art, for your kind comment on my Connie and your good wishes for the New Year! I am really lucky to have found this specimen, which also went to Biel for refurbishing. It was not a bargain to have it done, but it is rewarding nonetheless to wear t...
Same watch to end a year and begin a new one for more than 30 years,,,
... I have been wearing the same watch every for Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, 31st of December and 1st of January of each year since the early 1980´s. I call it my lucky watch, and have been wearing this same watch on these occasions every year since my ...
Lol Nicolas!! Have an excelent Year! Here we say: "don be superticious...
... because it brings bad luck! Lol! Well... let me say it in a different way: is not supersticion but an old custom of mine! Lol! :))) All the best for you my dear friend! Un abrazo y muy buen año mi amigo!! Abel.
That is a great tradition!
and you must be an excellent grill cook! :-) Happy 2015 Best, Mike
Thank you so much Mike! Have a great New Year! well...
... I´m not so good with cooking asado, but to try to help a little to my brother in law who is an acomplished asado cook. Well I´m only good with my knife and fork at eating a good juicy asado! :))) Cordial regards, Abel.
For me... skiing with family and friends over the New Year period...
with one of my favourites and matching H skis... Wishing everyone a healthy, happy and horological 2015! Cheers Andrew ...
As Nicolas would say . . .
. . . "simply sublime". Terrific wrist shot, Andrew. My compliments!
Lookin' sharp, Matt! . . .
. . . I've a lot of affection for Eterna, perhaps the most underrated manufacturer of 'em all. Take care on the slopes - we don't want to hear of any new scratches on the KonTiki! Best, Art
Maybe there's a trend here . . .
. . . where we tend to wear our favorites during the transition. I usually wear one of my G O perpetuals, Abel wears his sentimental Rolex, you're wearing a Panerai. Let's revisit this thread next year to see what we're wearing New Year's Day 2016. Best, ...
