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...
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 ...
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
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-...
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...
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 ...
.. 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 (...
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 ...
... and I can give testimony of that! Having reached the 66 years old line, with two children grown and with their families already formed and three grandchildren (and waiting a fourth in a few months), my days go faster than I would like them to fly! Bei...
... of my timepieces personally with you this year! That adds lots of enjoyment to owning and wearing them! I wish I´ll be able to repeat the experience next year! Un abrazo muy afectuos mi amigo! Buen fin de semana! Abel.
. . . 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...
. . . was the one . . . . . . worn least. Just two days on my wrist, but adored every minute. Come to think of it, getting this one back from the watchmaker after a two year hiatus . . . . . . was the cause for much pleasure as well. A pretty much uninter...
. . . 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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 !! ...

.. 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
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 ...

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...
I know which watch got the most wrist time (no surprises), and therefore I guess I might conclude that this was the one that I enjoyed wearing the most...or is it simply my most useful watch? My two constant companions: But 2014 was a surprisingly good wa...

a great travel companion. I was also presented with the gold model, which is quite rare in the USA. Really like them both and enjoy the weight, fit, finish and the S. Francisco for the west coast of the US designation. Still looking for a good example of ...
Coincidentally, I just finished reading the autobiography of Kieth Richards, in which he writes at length on the recording of Exile on Main Street. Certainly saddened to hear of the recent passing of one of Keith's long term friends and partner-in-crime B...
Without any doubt this year winner, by margin, is vintage Zenith Defy that came as gift from very dear friend exactly the same day when my wife announced me that we'll have our third baby It just can't get any better than this (Disclamer: This are not bra...

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...
... means that it is THE most valuable watch for you. Price or secondary market value means little for watch lovers :-) What makes you happy is most valuable. Ken
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...
