. . . in the background with Black Connie is a rock and roll rose, and the image was taken in my uncle's garden. Here's a better picture of the flower . . . . . . and my niece, May 2012. ...
certainly the biggest watch i've ever owned, but it doesnt wear as big as it should. the Longines 24 hour heritage i now long for is slightly smaller at 47mm, but wears bigger due to the large crown stem. best G
. . . to persuade myself into buying one, Graham. As a watch, it's everything a guy could want. I like everything about the XXL except for one trifle: it's way too large for my wrist. Now that Omega has come up with a three-handed co-axial movement with c...
lets hope something nice and reasonably priced is in the offing. i have my eyes on a 1964 Grand Seiko at the moment. very nice except for incorrect crown so if the price is right..... G
. . . with garlic! Peppers, too. :-) Actually, those are both wonderful images, but there's something about Nico's frijoles that calls to me. He's made the same shot (different watch, though) with coffee beans and tea leaves before; the varied patterns on...
One of the things I miss most in China is what the Mediterranean diet in Spanish calls "platos de cuchara" (dishes which require spoons): beans, lentils and chickpeas are all non-existent here. They are good for health and delicious, but nowhere to be fou...
.. I am a convinced Pro-Vlad afficionado ! This UN is with an easy-going sportyness, and friendly face, IMHO.. Best, also for the weekend, my friend ! hs
was a amatuerish shot. picked up the frangipanis from my garden and was gonna place them in a bowl of water...decided to take a picture with ym watch first. did it before i even kbnew the theme for the week...such coincidence!! best, Horo
The dial is the absolute nicest I have seen on a KV. And the Frangipanis take me back to my old garden in Singapore. My favourite trees, and I miss the fragrance. Great photo. Dean
It is a fairly recent addition to the watch and it gives it a totally different look to the standard croc. I actually wear it more now just because of the strap change, strange how something so small can put a watch back into regular rotation. Cheers Andr...
.. between the gold components ( eg: indices), being in harmony with the blue elements ! What a nice choice that GP of yours is - envouting ! All the best & HAGWE ! hs
The flowers are known as Stephanotis floribunda, the Hawaiian wedding flower vine. If you live in a warm tropical climate I highly recommend growing it as the flowers are very fragrant and waxy!
I know this watch brings a smile to your face as it is for many others . The bright rasta colours heralds in spring and spring blooms very well. Cheers, dreamer
.. mine sends kind greetings ! Sending mountain greetings ! On a sunny break.. Not a lot of flowers up there.. Your flowers are lovely with the multicolored Milgauss GV ! Best, hs ...
The multicoloured rasta is a favourite of mine with its personality and is perfect to herald in spring with new colourful blooms. HAQWE Kind regards, dreamer
I will try my best, to fulfill the theme : So here are my submissions: some Vintage, some Modern and some JLC and some others.. BTW: your own choices are splendid: flowers & watches, as well Hence, without further ado: Jaeger Vintage Chrono.. In flower be...
.. watches & flowers, I very much like that genre ! - at least as much as ticket-or coffeeshots.. Luckily, no shots taken during Framboise or Calvados interludes ! ;) Best again, hs
Hello Blomman, when I read your introductory post yesterday with the particular blossom, I knew I could only post this picture: I know it´s a bit aged already, but the best I can possibly offer. Kind regards anaesdoc ...
fallen petals from flowering pear trees... flowers just starting to burst out here and there... but the daffodils are how I know that Winter is finally on its way out. HAGWE! ...
... not to comment on anyone's contributions this week as I was judging the WOTW. But I can tell you now that I thought this was a superb combination of Reverso's. Beautifully shot and two very special examples with amazing dials. You (and the Reverso) ha...
i found some spring flowers in my sisters garden. the Magnolia hasnt flowered yet, but the pink one is in full bloom. shame they cut it back from last year. G...
