Here today and where tomorrow?

[Dave Essel]

This is what this forum has done to me a year or so since I thought it might be nice to get a new watch, started looking around, and came upon this place. :D

All told, I'm pretty pleased but would, as always, value advice/criticism.

So here goes, I bare all before this élite public (by which I *don't* mean this :bootyshake:)

The situation today:



The direction as I see it:


The 'nearly a grail':


Of course, that's today and daily mood affects the situation although the above is reflective of a fairly persistant train of mind.

Also on seconds thoughts, I think the F104 should get an X as the Eddie Italian will replace it nobly.

Space also needs to be reserved for a Speedbird3 and Eddie's trench watch.

What is the watch in the last pic, or is it a mock-up ?

Hi

If you want my 2cents worth...

My Seiko grew up to this:



...I am really impressed with it too.!

Not touched the UTS but it was under consideration..., but looked to chunky.!

Nice direction your collection is going.!

Thanks

It's the MiH watch - only available from the Swiss horological museum (at SFr 5000? - not sure).

Thanks for the kind words, Deano. That's not 2¢ worth but $$$ :)

That Tutima of yours is seriously nice and is giving me some misgivings re the UTS!!!

Here's another that is also vying with my heart as a Seiko replacement. [BTW, the main thing I don't like about the Seiko is the non-hacking seconds]. Also, I haven't yet tried to find out if one has to have the days of the week on this Temption in German...



Thanks
