Look forward to more incomings!
Hey buddy! Holy smokes that's beautiful! During all our FPJ discussions you never told me you had this sexy little devil!

Looks great on you! Really really stunning. And yes, finding one will be the trick. I have become a stickler for original finish watches (not because I am scared of polish, but just because I want the history of the watch to come with it). So, original finish, full set, and great condition. These things aren't plentiful anymore, but where there's a will there's a way!

I still hope to make it to Singapore for a visit one day. Drinks are on you on Orchard Street!

Thanks M!

No doubt you will find just the perfect piece you’re seeking, look forward to seeing an incoming soon! The 26300 is a great reference.

Drinks await @ Orchard! Seeing one or more of your special awaited FPJ’s on the wrist will make it an epic evening

The size of the 39mm is perfect. I’d much rather have the centered butterfly clasp of the newer model however. In order to get a decent fit I had to flip the deployant and it’s still not 100% but it is much better. Also the spacing of subdials on the 41mm looks wonky (they used the same movement but just increased the size).

I absolutely love the way my 25860ST blue wears. It is super wearable on my wrist a little under 7”. It is elegant on the SS bracelet yet sporty, but i usually wear it on a rubber B Velcro strap. It draws less attention and it is so comfortable since i wear this watch a lot with jeans and a polo.

It’s a sick watch!

Would you step up into a WG 39mm roc? That way you get the AP at 12 opposed to the triangle and a great weight to the watch.
