Zeitwerk is a few more months away yet as it is the new rose gold 142.031

This is coming direct from the boutique in Bangkok, I went to see them again last month and they told me about 6months to go.

My ‘one’.
I'd take any Zeitwerk, but given the choice, it would be the Lumen for me.

On the subject of green, I collected this earlier today biggrin

I rather pleased with it and will see if I can do a wrist shot for the appropriate thread later or tomorrow.

Had a few glasses of red and paid about US$2k more than I wanted to for the pair of Tudor 9411s, below.

Obviously the bezels are missing, so more expense to come, but I fell in love with the patina on these:









Quite an interesting back story potentially to do with the US Navy... but no military markings/indications on the cases, etc. so all a bit of fun hearsay.

They're rather lovely, what year?

My collection is missing a nice vintage birth year piece (1981)

Absolutely! Please post a picture or two when it arrives! I tried on a Zeitwerk date a couple of years ago and absolutely loved it, although it's just a bit too big for me, sadly. Stunning watch though.

Both 1976, only a few serial numbers apart, again leading to the idea they were a batch to the military. In an ideal world, they'd be 79s for my birth year but I just love the patina, appreciating many won't!

Genuine bezels, if RSC will let me have them without a patina destroying service, will no doubt add lots to the bill. May have to go 3rd party, for now. Shouldn't have spent so much so will consider rehoming one or something else like a 16610 Sub Date.

Having taken advantage of ebay's 10% offer, this was delivered this morning. Left on the doorstep and signed by the courier, which is both helpful and worrying. I didn't hear him knock on the door so if he hadn't left it I wouldn't have it for the weekend I guess.

Here's the seller's photo, as I brought it inside the house then darted off to work

Well done, clap
Keep seeing these brand new @ $2995 dollars which is about £3k on the wrist VAT & Duty paid but the watch box is too full to justify frown
