Kawasaki rose
Jan 10, 2014,08:01 AM
The Kawasaki rose is named after its inventor,
Toshikazu Kawasaki, an origami designer and math teacher from Japan.
Kawasaki invented an unique curling technique that
creates the illusion of overlapping rose petals. It's quite difficult
to fold, I use about 30 minutes to fold one rose.

Hey Ken, do you do everything three times?
By: Mark in Paris : January 9th, 2014-08:22
The L1, the Dato if I remember well... glad it ends well finally But since I sold my 1815 to fund the DB25, it remains in my mind that I'll get a rose gold Lange again one day or another. So maybe I'm on the same trend there! I as already told you before,...

Saturday I will be wearing my Eterna Valjoux 72. A B&W version: Today on my wrist ... The usual Zenith. A great weekend to all, Nilo ...
That Zenith is...
By: KIH : January 9th, 2014-09:05
... something I love.... But I prefer A386, the round version. Having said that, I am always impressed with your extensive vintage collection! Thanks, Nilo! Ken
"Extensive vintage collection"!
By: nilomis : January 9th, 2014-09:52
Ken, I only own five vintage watches. I prefer new ones and let then to turn vintage on my wrist. The Zenith is a re edition that cellebrates the 40th anniversary of the glorious El Primero in 2009. On other hand I have friends that are hooked on vintages...
Thanks Hs ...

As always...

Beautiful photos/watches! :) HAGWE Blomman
Thank you Sir ...
By: nilomis : January 10th, 2014-05:25
Currently I'm very lazy to take watch pictures. During the summertime here the light is very strong since sunrise and I hard to take a good picture. I need to do a good session of my DSC 3 counters before it acquires one scratch or mores. Cheers, Nilo
My lord ...
By: nilomis : January 10th, 2014-06:51
As we go, there are some vintage pieces that "sing to me" and I have a particular affection for Eterna (60's/70's). Cheers, Nilo

By: nilomis : January 11th, 2014-17:44
Just oiling and cleaning and the Valjoux 72 is back to its former glory. No polishing or anything that could put at risk its vintage status. Thank you Flamenco, Nilo

Hi I can see the temptation of the three Momovoxes - each with a different face and all rather wonderful. Cheers JML
That's true...

Hi Graham Thats disappointing - no matter how much or little you pay - you don't want your watch to have issues. My clear one has been fine - its been wear and forget really. Don't wear it often - but when I what something a bit different it fits the bill...
Thank you!

The watch is a sight to behold, feels fantastic on the wrist, imparts a sense of occasion in a very understated manner. An extremely dignified yet strong timepiece, quite simply the most elegant watch I have seen in a long time ! Thank you, Nico !
