5513 Comex.. for me the best

Well i guess it's no surprise anymore. First of all i am a non-date plexi guy. But even more... with Comex the 5513 with valve is the one to get for me. Much lesser numbers then the 5514. And this one is also a medium numbers... with matte logo dial. As Marcello last told me... about only about 20-30 left in this configuration. And in this condition ?????

Late 1972 delivery. And the only 5513's with valve. Which makes them kind of prototypes for me.

Just a fantastic find... 6542 Albino !!!!

Wooooaaaawwww ... just wooooaaawwww. Stefano made a post on his blog about the 6542 Albino. Of course there are still questions.. and lot to learn. And of course questions will be asked,.. issues pointed.... but for me personally. The match is sooo big. If it's aint the real deal we are all in deep shit! The legend is alive...

Stefano's blog > there is the whole story!

The images are from Stefan't blog. And i put 2 layers on top of eachother to show the match in typography. The word SWISS looks different then on most GMT's. But the same as some of them (red GMT-MASTER) and red bigcrown of the mid 50th.

Exciting!!!

Trip to London... ohhhhh nooo

Ohhhhh nooooo can you believe it. I visited London last weekend. And met with some great friends at Home House Club in the evening... collectors... and forgot my camera in the hotel... ohhhhh no! So i am so sorry... i can't show you the beauty of the Daytona,... the coooool red colour of that 5510 gilt dial, the crazy beauty of that Jean Claude Killy,... the shear rareness and history of the Iranian Milsub, .. the pure sex of that 5513 Comex,.... and much more. So sorry! But i can share a bit of the trip. A all relaxed easy dinner at Home House. A member club which made quite a impression on me. Because of it all relaxed atmosphere and fantastic interior. With all the old elements, new design and very relaxed people! All my favorite combination. Here are some images of the club from the website...

And the next day i combined the trip to visit watch-friends to visit again a area of London i have now visited 4 times in the last 6 years... and have seen it change from a rough and highly creative surrounding to a hip and more mainstream creative surrounding. The edge is gone. The coolness of the people of the beginning has gone a bit for more tourist and business people to walk in. But still one of the places with a lot of energy and cool shops and initiatives. I understood the new place to be is Hackney now... so i hope to visit that area soon. Some impressions from Shoreditch... and Spitafield Market area.
