How to play a “Perfect Game”..?
By: blomman Mr Blue : May 29th, 2011-07:22
In many sports there is a term for a well played game – a “Perfect Game”. A team or a player that achieve something extra ordinary! I was wondering if this term would be applicable on vintage watch collecting. Is it? I don’t know… But here is my attempt f...
It’s an attempt..

Perfect Game… I wonder what a watch collecting term would be?! These extra accessories really give some extra pleasure to the watch! Another hunt, another quest… Thank you, HS! Best Blomman
Another hunt .. another Quest .. Same Joy ! :))

A “Perfect Game” would have been 6 – 0 ! Yes, the Swedish Tigers really got to feel some Finnish sisu! Congrats to the Gold! Best Blomman
It seems as if ...

I wish I had…

I wish I had a time machine to go back and see how the original packing looked like! And maybe take some watches with me..? Thank you, N ! Best Blomman
A clear case

Of "Never say never". I also stay away from watches of this size (34mm) and, horror, "gold plated". But, as you stated, our taste changes or evolves and here you have... A perfect game!! Cheers
Never say never…

Indeed that IS true! Recently I experienced this first hand! Will put together a post later this summer… It’s a summer’s watch! Thank you, Nilo! Best Blomman
The paperwork and watchband....

JLC/LC had several different boxes at this time
By: blomman Mr Blue : May 30th, 2011-13:56
Including the same papers, AFAIK. But I agree, this might not be correct paperwork for this watch/box. Or even if the watch and the box are correct for eachother… My hangtag is blank on the backside, but if you look closely it looks like something has bee...
Yeah, I really don't know either...

...on the back of my tag is printed "ATMOS 15 Jewels". I have always thought the large red boxes were extra cost options anyway. Take care, gatorcpa
More of the same..?! :)

In the hunt for perfection, this setup would be preferred for all our watches… Piece by piece, bit by bit… One day maybe… Thank you, Georges! Best Blomman
Thanks for sharing

Hi Blomman, I've been away from this forum for quite sometime due to workload lately but it is good to come back and read a very inspiring post. I'm still about 50% or less for my rolex 1625, but still a long journey for my memovox lol..... Thanks for sha...
