A trip needed...

Last weekend i was away with my wife. For a short trip. Just the 2 of us. Well needed after a lot of work and little time together. A friend adviced me this new hotel. In Bonn, Germany. It was fantastic!

Superlative APP

My friend Auro just made a great APP. His 100 Superlative Rolex Wateches book  is already fantastic. Gave me some great grail-sniffing times at home. Now i have those babies with me all the time...

Sunburst

And as you might have guessed it.... 1 guitar was not enough ;-) Needed something matching....

Pepsi....

I picked up an old love of mine. 20 years ago i played for about 1 year. But quit then.. always felt sorry about it.
So i picked up on it again. Now with a private teacher. To do it right and keep rocking this time.
But what makes it also so great. I see so much of the same passion in both world.
Both find their design in the 50th.. and still hold their magic till today.

Sorry for being not so active. I was so busy at work. 14-16 hours a day...
But want to show you my 5510 with the right bracelet now. With 65 endlinks... and a real rare claps.
A big logo claps from '59 is already rare. But this is the matte version. Got it from a friend.
And he and i have only seen 3-4 of them till now...

A big thank YOU!!!!

Woow... i am surprised! Just looked at some numbers and statistics of the blog. And i am totally amazed.
Seems that the last 6 month this blog received more then 130.000 visits. I am really blown away by that number. I was already happy when a small group would be enjoying this blog. But so much. I only can give you a humble thank you all for visiting.
And it gives me extra boost to keep focused on posting! Hope you will keep enjoying this place.

Also great to see so many visitors directed from othe blogs. More in into fashion and lifestyle! Fantastic! As the worlds indeed blend and match. Maybe i should also do some more posts on cool other stuff blending with vintage Rolex. Will post some of the cool blogs here also!

Thanks!

5510 in the sun

When the sunlights hits the dial... it shows it's real beauty. A beautiful warm patina...

Heuer auction at Bonhams

Couple of weeks ago Bonhams had a great Heuer auction. And i only just got the catalogue due of the bad weather.
What great watches and style did they put into the auction. Nice images of the world around it and cool watches. With amazing results. The black Monaco went crazy. Real high price for a übercool watch.

The 5510 is reaaaaaal hot!!!

I am proud to show you my new beast of joy! 5510...

5510 seems to be hot.....

Seems like the Rolex 5510 just is getting his attention. A sleeping beauty. Undervalued maybe. Tha last of the real cool Bond watches.
