By: Subexplorer : August 1st, 2014-12:02
... regretably my camera do not allow me better close ups of the "12" index, so I played a little with the light to try a more interesting effect. I´m happy to share this little timepice here! Very cordially, Abel.
An asymmetrical marker . . .

By: Subexplorer : August 1st, 2014-12:07

By: ztirual : August 1st, 2014-01:58
Excellent selection. I love the KV. And I also love those little nipples that we call cabochon in french. The term might even have crept into the English language? I don't know. ...

I will use a six shooter this week!
By: 4Js : July 31st, 2014-18:45
I have a tie in my gun for these two: Lange first, how unique are these markers? Now two shots of another favorite - MR. Kari I've posted these two VC before, but the markers are sublime Not to leave out this JLC where the markers just contrast so nicely ...
. . . and now three . . .
By: Dr No : August 1st, 2014-12:01
. . . for Kari's classic. Especially partial to the Reverso, Joe . . . the simpler versions portray the essence of the design best.
Great selection, Joe ...
By: AndrewD : August 1st, 2014-15:17
That blue dialed Reverso is a favourite. The lume shot of the Journe is impressive. How long does it last into the night? Something to read in bed by! Andrew
