How about a specific Big Block club? Post what you got! I'll start.....

B serial on a perlon strap.

zapokee · 2 May 2016, 11:13 PM

Hard to beat a Big Block for value and heft. Here's mine.

rootbeer7 · 3 May 2016, 01:58 AM

Now that's a great start and great picture. London and Tokyo covered

waQstar · 3 May 2016, 02:28 AM

Here is one in current rotation...

brandrea · 3 May 2016, 02:53 AM

Mais_Um · 3 May 2016, 03:09 AM

94200

Cheers!

springer · 3 May 2016, 03:13 AM

My 1979 "Biggie," model 94200.

rootbeer7 · 3 May 2016, 03:46 AM

Thank you sir. It was a one owner and I believe the only time he wore it was the day he purchased it.

drefrank · 3 May 2016, 08:44 AM

Here are mine - 94210 and 79180. IMHO great value and looks - they both get a good degree of wrist time (although not usually at the same time).

chessebj · 3 May 2016, 08:47 AM

I love my 79180. It gets a lot of wrist time.

rootbeer7 · 3 May 2016, 04:58 PM

Great stuff Mais_Um and desirable

let's keep them coming

Thank you my friend !!

Not a "BigBlock" but a 79180 brother

Cheers!!

rootbeer7 · 3 May 2016, 08:35 PM

I think we'll allow it in!

sea-dweller · 4 May 2016, 12:01 AM

Very nice!

rootbeer7 · 4 May 2016, 12:04 AM

looking good defrank, how do you choose?

drefrank · 4 May 2016, 10:58 AM

Thanks rootbeer7. It can be tough to decide between them. I try to stick with a rotation and rarely wear these back to back. It's nice having choices.

Like most of us, I am hoping to have more choices in the future!

Daytona88 · 4 May 2016, 11:17 AM

Very nice pics!

I really like the 3D, double-layer sub-dials on that model. Did all 942xx models have that treatment?

Here is my duo which are rotated regularly along with a 79090 Sub.

Dan Pierce · 4 May 2016, 01:22 PM

Sadly, my long gone Big Block.

Luckily the itch is still scratched with my 79270P.

I wish I could answer your question but I'm not much help on this model. I own one and that is about all I can tell you...sorry.

Don't feel sad Dan, you have made many of us big block enthusiasts, well at least ... Me! Good to see you around.

rootbeer7 · 5 May 2016, 06:00 AM

looking good iclick and Dan you're the man!

Porter · 5 May 2016, 06:33 AM

Nice thread!! Nice to see those beautiful pieces! Thanks all!!

hoppes-no9 · 5 May 2016, 11:36 AM

Just got my first -- a 94210.

rootbeer7 · 9 May 2016, 05:41 PM

Welcome to the club hoppes-no9

rootbeer7 · 9 May 2016, 05:43 PM

Beautiful sunny morning in London. Love the way dial catches the sun

Qinhan · 9 May 2016, 06:24 PM

I can surely appreciate them, just not on my puny wrists. Big blocks ain't called big for nothin'!

This is my old 79170 that I flipped a while back.

Micha · 9 May 2016, 10:30 PM

beautiful pieces guys...count me in!!!

Qinhan · 9 May 2016, 10:45 PM

You don't see the porcelain dial, silver sub-dial combination very often. Nice!
