Yup, it's December already. The older you get, the faster the time flies..... it's so true..... Okay, 2014 is only once. Which watch did you enjoy wearing most this year? And if possible, why? In my case..... because this is so useful for both business an...  

between these two. For exactly the same reasons you've mentioned - they work for casual and formal, and since I'm in t-shirts and jeans most of the time, this becomes essential. Based on my watch rotation chart, both these got exactly 78 days of wear each...  

I, too, would give them both fair wrist time :-) Thanks! Ken

Complement each other very well! :) HAGWE Blomman

Since I'm very unfaithful with watches but here is an attempt: Daily beater: Omega PO Good Planet: IWC Portuguese Classic Chronograph: Perfect, IMHO: This in house movement from IWC is a killer chronograph. Only competitor that I own is the Omega 9300: A ...  

Your pics always make me want the watch! :-) ...  

I had this watch, sold it and I was trying to get another. The problem was that the seller wanted a price point that made me to ask if the size of the yacht that was included!! No deal. Someday one will pop up. Cheers, Nilo

HAGWE, my friend Blomman

You need to pay more attention to IWC. This Portuguese and others deserves a chance. Of course, IWC needs to start paying attention to non-gigantic customers in respect to the case size. I'm glad that the Portuguese Classic was designed to ... humans (42-... 

And you pictures enhance that. Ihe 43mm case didn't fit my wrist too well, unfortunately, else this would have been in the stable already.

The Polaris is hard to beat! :) Best Blomman

... original one! Nice.... Ken

I'm also wearing lighter watches recently for a change but very difficult to choose between these two most favorite. Many of us here are blessed and spoilt, of course we do worked hard as well. I'll try to do my part and contribute to the economy. Rgds Ra...  

One dress, one sport! :) HAGWE Blomman

and something we don't see often here Lovely story of your behind it Wear it in best of health D

With experience, I've become to give a more important care to the size and weight of a watch. Your white dial 5726 is a watch I like a lot Raymond. Cheers, Mark

already showing up on the polished links :((, haha.... I need to switch to lighter and simple watches, have been going off balance with too many Chrono...just added one yesterday, which I will post later...irony.. Rgds Raymond

Are the once who got the most wrist time this year, if you don't count the borrowed GP 1966 that is... The one watch I enjoyed the most? Impossible to say.... Probably the one on my wrist at each moment I try to answer the question! HAGWE Blomman ...  

... they are both sooo nice! Ken

.. also interesting, how your collection in part has changed & matured ! Always enjoy these GP Vintages, with slight pref of The Olimpico , except the Blue insert, you've just shared, But on my future agenda is at least one Vintage, and maybe one modern (... 

Evolved.... Yes, my friend - something that happen to us all over time! :) Best Blomman

It's a classic! :) HAGWE Blomman

Very comfortable and under the radar watches. Probably not the most worn but among the most enjoyed. Much to love. Different cases, dials, lunettes and movements. One missing on the picture. Black, gray & white. Best ...

I will try... :-) Nice collection there! Ken

. . . or a revived one? Usually, after a falling out, we rarely go back. It's been almost 15 years since parting with my one Rolex, and other than on one occasion, I've never seriously considered returning to the fold. Art

... yes, it is a revived interest which arrived this year. I bought my first Pam in 2006 a model 111 which I still own. It had a lot of wrist time in the first years, and gradually decayed to a from time to time wearing as my interest in collecting and in... 

Really like your line up - all strong watches with very different characters! :) Best, my friend Blomman

what a year you !!

HAGWE, Guys. Nicolas. ...

And the MN is the cherry on the cake! :) Best, my friend Blomman

Or better said, I should have bet on it! ;) Best, Amigo. Nicolas

. . . today, Nicolas. Guess which rose gold and black vintage will be coming out to replace her? :-)

. . . Connie's getting ready for her winter sojourn . . .

... deserve big place in anyone's collection.... Ken

. . . crazy mad for them, or can't figure them out. Vintage Seamasters, though, should be on just about everyone's list. Even at this late stage of active collecting, a Karrée is still at the top of my wish list. I'm that crazy about them!

I always found that one of my favorite of GO's early offerings. That Deco dial makes it! I fondly remember my RG Senator Perp with the Cal 39 from that period, easiest perpetual calendar to read, love their big date too! Cheers, Tim

. . . seeing them online (June '01) and in person (Dec '01). Sensory overload on both occasions, especially the latter. Four Karrées later, a manual winding version . . . . . . is still at the very top of my wish list. Best, Art ...  

. . . are special treasure ;-) . . . ...  

Different character and style. I can only guess the joy you feel with any of the two on your wrist, my friend! Best Blomman

one white , one blue , one black .... Covered for any occasion ...  

.. they are my treasure, too.... :-) Very nice trio! Ken

That is a great trio! :) Best Blomman

This still brings a smile to my face anytime I strap this one on. The heft is wonderful, and the enamel dial with those elongated romans just does it for me every time! HAGWE all, Cheers, Tim ...  

... this is another one which fills my requirement..... :-) Ken

I agree Ken, dress it up or dress it down, the RO is always APpropriate. Not my daily beater so didn't see the most wrist time, but I enjoyed it the most because it was with me on most weekends :) Cheers, Matt ...  

Mo

.. Great size, nice fit for your wrist and jeans. Thanks, Matt! Ken

It seems faster and faster, so we have to have more watches .... LoL Since I travel quite often this year this Hublot is my traveling companion, may I sweat, get wet and its ruggedness make me my fave traveling partner HANWE everyone !! ...

And the watch!... Matt

The Breguet is amazing, as is the Explorer. GEO

.. especially without date beats my heart fast!!! Oh, I wish there are such piece around on sale..... Of course, special Rolex is something to dye for, too. I would love both! Ken

since last Summer, so I assume this is the watch I have been wearing most. But that doesn't mean that I enjoyed less my other watches. GEO [URL=] [/URL] ...  

.. nice touch to a true gentleman, I think. Business mostly? Great addition to your wrist when talk business, I am sure. If I were the counterpart, I would give you extra point :-) Ken

I would have bet any of your Cartier's would be shown once I clicked your link! ;) Very nice, ice blue! Best Blomman

No disrespect for the other babies....but this is the new born... Mo ...

I enjoyed wearing it the most for this year...... Thank you Ken-San Mo

Stunning! :) Best Blomman

Thank you my friend....glad you like it.. Mo

. . . should be your avatar, Mo. That's one powerful image . . .

I will consider it for sure.....hard to replace a skull though.... Hope you are well my dear friend. Mo

was probably the GP Chronometer HF. It was given a lot of wrist time as it is very comfortable and versatile and it kind of built the foundation of my vintage venture in 2014. Great weekend to all. CC ...  

.. you must know the depth of the holorogy heritage.. :-) I love GP heritage, too. One of the brands truly worthy of admiration. Ken

That is a great choice, my friend! :) The Chronometer HF is such a great watch! Best Blomman

This seems to be the watch I enjoy wearing the most in 2014. I regretted not getting a Reverso earlier. I used to think Grande Reversos are too big for my small wrist. With a short strap it works very well for small wrists. I missed some of the early spec...  

Watch buddies forever! Cheers Robin ...  

exactly to your points :) Thank you Cheers Robin

... so unfair.... too nice, my friend! Ken

Indeed life is unfair lol! :p Thanks Ken for your kind words Cheers Robin

Love the blue hue that this watch has on the dial! :) Best Blomman

Hi Ken, yes, obviously it is time to look back at the almost elapsed year of 2014. Although it is not my most spectacular or valuable watch, this simple vintage Seamaster was worn most of the time. Its unobtrusiveness, the date window and its classic desi...

I enjoyed wearing this one the most because I had been searching for a black dial Master Moon for some time, and finally found one in Denmark. The seller coincidentally was a medical professional too, and we had an enjoyable Skype conversation en-route to...  

I used to own this and love wearing. Versatile, looks perfect. And black dial is sooo nice! Thanks for sharing! Ken
