855
Gotcha!
Nov 19, 2010,06:26 AM
Hi Stefan,
Sorry to let you down, but I just couldn't resist the play of words when I saw the snow outside this morning.
I agree with you though that the E877 is an impressive watch - but the E855 is not bad either
Yours is a mesmerizing memo as well and I really like the way the logo at 9 balances the date window.
Thanks for your kinds words my friend!
Nikolaj

By: G99 : November 18th, 2010-15:37
this new aquisition is an Enicar Sherpa Super-Dive super compressor from 1964. i've only worn it for 2 days, but it is very very nice. its the full size 40mm case and with the bracelet it suits my wrist perfectly. its also remarkably accurate. i've tried ...

Great pickup
By: Ubik : November 19th, 2010-02:56
Big fan of Enicars, great history, inhouse movements, great styling. It's interesting to note that in the 1958 Experimental diving report, that alongside the Blancpain and Rolex, Enicar was also tested. So it was seen as a serious tool watch back then. Re...
thanks Ubik. i think Enicar are a very underrated brand
By: G99 : November 19th, 2010-03:54
they have a lot of history in the diving world with the bonus of in house movements. and yes, it is an original Enicar bracelet although i'm not sure it was made for this watch. best Graham
A collectors watch
By: Ubik : November 19th, 2010-06:33

Congratulations Graham

I am destined not to find a '64 that tells the time, so I am pleased that one of us has! Nice diver. Andrew

Lovely JLC Duometre, Eddy.....................
By: Topcat30093 : November 19th, 2010-02:08
I saw both the R/G as well as the Platinum this week while I was at an evening event, being held by my AD. And I have to say, that I very much prefer the R/G over the Platinum, fot it's much better contrast of colours.
Thank you Tony

By: CaliforniaJed : November 20th, 2010-07:05
And I know exactly what you mean about "cool insouciance". She does not "revere" the watch, or any that she wears. She appreciates it, but she simply "wears" it, as she does any watch or jewelry. Its beauty is but a sparkle. Hers is the real deal! Best, C...

Congratulations
By: AndrewD : November 19th, 2010-03:51
I look forward to seeing more shots of this one. I find it a striking modern dial with great use of silver and grey tones. People I have asked seem polarised about this Patek. It seems to be either love or dislike. That's good; I don't like bland watches....

Beautiful Nomos!
By: jporos : November 19th, 2010-09:44
Nomi? Nomoses? We need a grammar expert here.
Interesting quesation
By: stromer : November 19th, 2010-13:41
that I never asked myself up to now. NOMOS claims that they chose the name from the greek word "nomos" which translates appoximately to "law" or "order". The plural of this word is "nomoi". Gosh, what beautiful problems we have! Best, Martin

By: G99 : November 19th, 2010-02:57
lovely Navitimer Ubik. i knew it was from 1964 due to the gold coloured AOPA symbol on the dial. gold was only used from dec 63- dec 64. a bit of valuable info i found out recently which will pay dividends when i have the money to look for one myself. i w...

By: G99 : November 19th, 2010-03:58

Lovely small vintage watch, Nicolas!
By: anaesdoc : November 19th, 2010-06:05
Like your expression "VC Calatrava" - that really sums it up nicely. I simply fall for these small vintage classics, although more in the Omega realm for reasons of affordability . Mes compliments á toi, anaesdoc
Wow! Nice VC
By: respo : November 19th, 2010-06:08
I can't wait to see more of this one. What is it with VC and the placement of their crowns???? Hurry up, Vlad, post some more on this one....please! Best, respo
More to come soon, Respo.
