Team, Here we end this series with some additional pictures. First a wonderful Omega pocket with a gorgeous dial. Mr. G. pocket Omega One, non-gold, exquisite pocket watch, with a ring that allows the watch to be used as a desk watch. Cool. Now, the famou...

Really, very greatly appreciated!!! S

I will let Mr. G. know ...

When and where I meet him again. As a man of mystery Mr. G. is a hard find. Cheers, Nilo

Just think if Mr. G collected "Pinky" rings...

 
 By: MikiJ : January 13th, 2014-11:11
Maybe even more gold than in his fabulous watches. Thanx for your marvelous report and scans. Miki

Thank you Miki ...

As a matter of fact, Mr. G. owns one "Pinky" ring but he does not dare to wear it. Cheers, Nilo

Senhor G is quite the Mystery Man . . .

. . . living in the Amazon, cutting off conversations in mid-stream while he admires an Omega on his wrist . . . just what you'd imagine in a Bond film! Thanks very much for bringing us not only the collection, but the charm of The Collector, too. Best, A... 

Amazon ???

There is no gold there. Nada, zilch. Jungle ... I was thinking in Melanesia. Cheers, Nilo

Thank you Mr. G and...

Nilo for sharing this series with us here! It has been a real pleasure to follow Mr. G and his Omega collection. :) Please, make a season #2: "Mr. G and his JLC's"...! ;) Best Blomman

For a great JLC series ...

I need to travel to a cold country and i need a great reason for this. A Snowflake will be a reason. Cheers, Nilo

Sorry ... Snowdrop ...

 
 By: nilomis : January 13th, 2014-12:43
I made a confusion. A Snowflake is nice but quite common here, but hard to find a pristine one. Cheers, Nilo

Well Nilo...

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : January 13th, 2014-13:15
If you come over anytime before May, there will be tons of snow here! ;) You are always welcome here, it would be my pleasure! :) Best Blomman

Dear Nilo: Thank you so much for sharing this most awesome...

... collection with us. I have been following all the installments of your report with great interest, and enjoyed them very much, not only the superb pictures you always publish, showing the timepieces at their fullest, but also the comments and descript... 

Thank you Abel ...

 
 By: nilomis : January 13th, 2014-12:02
For your kindly and wiser words. ¡Saludos! Nilo

By the look of Mr. G's hands he has been around the block a few times

 
 By: Bill : January 13th, 2014-17:42
Great story with great passion what else can you ask for. Thanks Bill

Can you explain ...

 
 By: nilomis : January 14th, 2014-05:39
What means "he has been around the block a few times" to a non native English speaker? Cheers, Nilo

Probably more of a "street-guy"...

 
 By: MikiJ : January 14th, 2014-07:29
Than a "desk-jockey". Thus my post about pinky rings ;-) Believe me that this is not a bad thing, just means Mr.G is real. Miki

You are correct ...

 
 By: nilomis : January 14th, 2014-08:03
But add to that that he is a very nice person, always in great mood. The only time that he is somber is when he cannot locate anything to add to his collection. Cheers, Nilo

It means he has travelled miles and gained a lot of experience.

It is a complement of experience. Bill

OK. No worries ...

 
 By: nilomis : January 14th, 2014-08:01
You are correct. Mr. G. has A LOT of experience. Cheers, Nilo
