Great pics guys


Here's pics from when my Grail arrived a couple of months ago, a 2005 watch sitting on the 2005 catalogue & my favourite pic on the wrist as the wrist-shot has caught the dial colour pretty much perfect

My GV has been confiscated by Mrs. FremStar

Special Thanks to Lisa & Karis for allowing me to post this video... I hope it does not offend any of our lady members.

For some my 116234 with the BMOP dial is one of the few timepieces in my collection that actually sings to me when I strap her on . The below Bruno Mars video is what plays in my mind when it's on my wrist!







Some random pics from my personal collection on my (mobile phone), living in NYC I try and take full advantage of my neighborhood to ensure that I am capturing some precious moments...

I have a feeling 2013 is going to be even crazier horology wise so I will post a pic everyday until this year is over...
