Can't say nothing for the moment. Isn't Xmas the best moment for some teasers? Best, Nicolas.

Hmmmmmm....

sounds like a teaser to me. Considering Jerome WAS overseeing AL&S for a bit (and the Hometime complication found its way into IWC and AL&S), and I'm SURE he was enjoying the Richard Lange... ...it wouldn't surprise me to see a MGUT with an "oversized" ba... 

Well, I thought you will never see this post! :)))

Sounds like a bloody teaser, indeed. What do I say? Well, nothing for the moment. But for sure it would be some great news if JLC decided to take this way! Best, Nicolas.

Nico when you say to "this kind of Details"

Big balance wheel, on a slow beat manual movement.

The Mark 7, but I am happy with what I have. I have other themas to close, on Vintage JLCs... Best, my friend. Nicolas.

What is your take on the cal 463…

MIL for the Germans during the WWII – true or fiction? Should it be considered a MIL JLC or not? Other themes… Yes, I have the same problem - too many themes! Best, my friend Blomman

Funny that you mention that.

This is something I had in my mind and that I totally forgot.... For the moment no take on this topic. Will have to dig the topic. As for themas, the way is not too long, but quite complicated. There are some rare pieces on my way, which are hard to fund ... 

SO less than 10 to go..?!

Wow, me I have not even started to count how many I have left… So many more to go! Hope you find (and bring home) yours soon, my friend! Best Blomman

If you don't count the travel clocks, desk clocks, and other " goodies " of this kind

Yes, less than 10 to go, or let's say, a maximum of ten to go. But as I told you, a lot of the ten I'm hunting are not easy to catch. It will take me years before being able to put my hands on them. On another side, I agree that there is much more to get....
