Those sub-dial markings . . .
. . . are unique - can't recall ever seeing any quite like them before. Intrigued, Art
From what I know....
About the sub-dial markings in orange is that they are to highlight 10 or 15 min. intervals depending on the rules of the particular yacht race where the different divisions start off at 10 or 15 minute intervals from each other. S
In search of a shark
Hi Alaways think this is a fun watch - green astro turk strap, with a vw beetle attached and then the swimmers going round. Not great for telling the time - but a great fun watch. Sometimes think adding a shark fin on a seconds hand would have been fun! C...
LOL! But if you have a shark on the seconds hand....
The shark will be the fastes and "win" ! ;) Excellent choice! HAGWE Blomman
Better yet if
hi Now if it had been an alarm as well, the the shark theme from jaws as the alarm. Now that would get you out of bed of a morning! Cheers JML
This old guy friend keeps smiling at me....

No better start! :)
Great way to send her into adult hood! :) Please send her my best! HAGWE Blomman
I just posted this one under kong's VC thread
first, I was like a kid in a candy store on my VC factory visit. Then they gave us time in a confer nice room with a few "friends". Just way too many nice pieces. But in the end, I found my favorite piece. I took a double header with my 47212. Yep, I was ...
This recent purchase has me smiling......
Bought this recently on the same day that I picked up a GP Gyromatic Alarm with JLC movement. It was a good day for watches.... ...
It is a great pleasure to see you here! :)
And that Rolex is another great watch! :) HAGWE Blomman
Thank you for the welcome to these forums....
I somehow overlooked this site, but I'm glad I've now found it. In my short time as a member, it's been fantastic. Regards
It is always great to ....
See new members join because of seeking info.... Staying because of all the fun! :) Best Blomman
50 Fathoms
This was the first (in my mind) truly extravagant watch purchase. I felt so guilty that I sold my car and commuted to work by bike for 10 months, wearing the watch of course (a testament to the durability of the movement) A foot of snow, however, can prov...
Great shot! :)
So, you got both a fantastic watch AND exercise! Double happiness! :) HAGWE Blomman
happyness
happy.... because a new comer makes me happy and because i have sourced this GP thanks to the purist familly and it makes me happy when i see that behind keyborards and screens there are humans after all (daft punk spirit) ! Pierre ...
Big love affair for me, too, but in my dreams, only ( for the moment ).
It is too big for you, my friend. I can help you to solve that problem. LOL! Nicolas
Wonderful to see, Pierre!
That is a very nice Olimpico! :) Hold on to it! Not easy to find in good condition! HAGWE Blomman
If and when the weather finally breaks these two will be reunited.
My new/old Speedy will be back from the spa and the kid will have my "sticks" cleaned-up and ready to play ;-) ...
A new addition to my vintage Omega collection . . .
[~ '46 30T2SCrg, left] . . . always makes me happy. Art ...
Start hunting, amigo . . .
. . . Ω chronometers in original condition are difficult to find at any price, much less a reasonable one. This one is cased in 33 mm steel; it will be off to my watchmaker next week for servicing.
Not at all, Nicolas . . .
. . . there were analog references to these smaller versions in 35 mm cases. It goes without saying that 'jumbo' models trade at a premium; I can't remember the last time a sterling example came up on the trading boards.
Wait 'til I pull the Genève chronometer out of the safe . . .
. . . for a trio portrait. You'll never recover from that one! :-)
Happy in black Blomman
Still enjoying the Tutima :-) Spring is near...HAGWE! -- Richard. ...

A watch gotten through a friend is always a happy watch. In any case happy week end to all. ...
Thanks to both of you...
Blomman, drop me a line if/ when you come to my patch of the world. Best Z
Sure will...
Unfortunately no plans as of now... Would be great to meet in real one day! :) Best Blomman
These two
have brought much pleasure and smiles over the past few years best henry ...
Vintage Omega chrono and the first warming sun beams are happiness for me
Hi Blomman, it would be happiness even without a nice watch to feel the first sun beams after winter pleasantly tickling the skin. But with this classic watch on my wrist it is an almost unbearable comfort and indulgence. Have a comfortable weekend yourse...
Man, that's a TOUGH call!...
Not everyone is blessed with such 'fun' watches as those, blomman; indeed, not all of us have a cheery outlook on life: [copyright credit Randy Glasbergen 2009] Still, in some cases it's a question of the mood that is evoked rather than the watch itself,...
Never confuse...
...your BE-BA with your BABA (although the Baba looks pretty happy too!): ;-) Cheers, pplater. ...
That explains a lot!
I always suspected that at least some of your watches are result of materialization ;) :) Cheers D
If materialisation were possible...
...don't you think there'd be at least one Haldimann and maybe a Duality in the watch box??? Don't even get started on Uma Thurman!!! ;-) Cheers, pplater.
The night is still young ;) :) :)...
and I would rather start about: Armani-clad (or unclad) bespoke-perfumed Kristin Scott-Thomas behind the wheel of a carbon edition Aston Vanquish Volante lapping the 'Ring in the snow at dawn listening to Miles Davis' Kind of Blue at full volume whilst sc...
That PSM is smile-inducing, for sure!
I feel sorry for the guy who commissioned that piece, only to sell it -- but it makes me smile to know that you have it! Best, Gary
As if...
...we were going to allow it to end up anywhere else! What are we coveting next, sensei ? ;-) Cheers, pplater.
Interesting and simple theme you thought for this week end dear Blomman!...
... But a very tough one to answer as an important part of the charm of watch collecting and owning is the enjoyment and happiness they give us! I find happiness fondling and wearing all my timepieces though certainly some are more loved than others. I wi...
Simple but important!
Thank you, dear Abel! One of the core ressons we do this. Best, my friend Blomman
It is hard to resist the Freak! :)
It makes you happy just to look at it! :) Best Blomman
Swing by our Omega forum . . .
. . . for a vintage Ω fix, William. There's a few resident SM addicts! Of course, there's plenty of modern Omegas to slake your thirst, too ;-) . . .
