Watches of Passion > 04 Killy Überporn

It's getting hard to talk about rare, when you see all those pile of watches. But believe me... those are rare. And so nice.

Watches of Passion > 03 Tropical porn

Tropical delight. Ohh men i love tropical. And those brown Daytona's are high, high on my wishlist. A full brown Daytona or camel colour as the right one. Would be my next grail.

But there where more fantastic brown dial watches at Passion this year. 

Watches of Passion > 02 Killer 6200

I guess you understand Passion 2011 was pure porn for us. Such great watches. Another amazing display was the show of 5 examples of 6200. Why rare.. lool they are! But just not at Passion 2011. And we had some of the nicest ones around.

Watch for diving

Maybe you have seen my post on semi vintage. Well i got me one. As the 1680 is so beautiful as is... the problem of finding a watch for the diving lessons with my son was still around. Now... here is the answer!

Watches of Passion > 01 NOS Heuer Monaco

At Passion there where so many great watches. Ultra rare.. rare... cool. Ultra nice. This was one of them. NOS vintage Heuer Monaco 'Steve Mc Queen'. With even the sticker on the backside. The case was so fresh. Mindblowing. This was the watch for me. It really kept me staring....

Passion meeting 2011 >>> It was amazing!

Another year gone by. Passion 2011 was another blast. So much relaxed fun and great watch talk. So many great watches. But not only like the hot grails of the month. In this group we see different style, different taste. Which makes it extra great. What we see are also great GMT's... but then with just the right patina, great case,  or little details.

As there was so much to see, in this post i will show you some images of the event. On later posts the next weeks i will focus on some of the watches and show some more detail and stories with it. 

All the difference in the detail... NEW Explorer tuned up.

How it looks with some extra TLC. Patina indexes and the Tudor strap...

Once in a lifetime!!! Grail 6200 got a great home!

 

You never know when and if. But that e-mail you always hope for in your collecting-passion always comes unexpected and by total surprise. Read this amazing story of connecting dreams!

Killer cooool Panerai calendar

Well... after i got the message of a friend.. i could not resist. When i had a look at the first image i was blown away.

New beater arrived

You might have witnessed my search for a beater watch. Well it arrived. And created a new problem LOOOL!

Chrono on nato

I don't know how it is for you. But i am a chrono lover. The vintage Daytona is the most beautiful watch on the planet. And they have so much style. Also on a steel bracelet. Great dress-watch. But what i also really like is wearing chrono's on a nato strap. Makes them look so cool. What do you think??

Semi vintage

As in my head there is the search for a beater.. which will swimm, tennis, dive and work in the garden LOOL. There is always the range of 16660 and 16800 on my mind. Saphire tough... matte dial with patina. This 666 once belonged to me. Just for a short while. As after wearing it for one week i could not get the sex out of it. Looked kind of dead. Mhhhhh..
