Suggestive Friday?

 
 By: amanico : March 3rd, 2011-11:50
Let me shoot first...With an unusual view on a delicious Big Crown: HAGWE, All. Nicolas....  

SLIDE – DO NOT LIFT

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : March 3rd, 2011-12:59
That is a beautiful view, Nicolas! I will follow with another suggestive view of a watch we all know… But in a different light it might raise some thoughts… Best, my friend Blomman...  

Love the ambience on your picture, Blomman. Suggestive ...

 
 By: amanico : March 3rd, 2011-13:59
Very suggesitve, and so warm! Great choice, my friend. You're a dangerous competitor! HAGWE. Nicolas.

No photo editing…

Only re-sized. A lucky shot – was playing with my camera… Thank you, my friend – three in a row, no that won’t happen! Best Blomman

Gold radiance in the dark. Very nice, Blomman. [nt]

Hi Blomman Great choice - had mine on again today. Those iconic words Great watch. I'm looking forward to the day that they reissue the Futurematic (well one can hope). We've had the alarms I want to go back to the future. Cheers JML PS I'm sure I left a ...

Love the photo montage !

The High Life

 
 By: AndrewD : March 3rd, 2011-13:43
Hi All, This was going to be the ‘suggestive’ crown shot to tease you with today … … but seeing as my new toy is the worst kept secret in WIS-ville, here she is in all her glory. Photo taken after breakfast at Justin Quek’s “The Sky on 57” restaurant, the...  

Thanks Nicolas

 
 By: AndrewD : March 3rd, 2011-23:53
I know an F.P.Journe is unlikely to find its way into your collection, but I appreciate that you are happy for me. This watch has been my goal for more than 6 years. Initially an impossible dream, but I made it and it proves to me that any dreams can come... 

I'm always happy to see a friend finding a long awaited and hunted watch.

 
 By: amanico : March 3rd, 2011-23:57
I imagine easily how happy you must be! Best, Nicolas.

Congratulations......

Thanks PP, I know that you are one who appreciates FPJ watches, and it's great to bring this one into the PuristS family. Thanks for your support as well. Andrew

My pleasure....

 
 By: MiniCooper : March 4th, 2011-07:31
I look forward to my first FPJ... Until then, I enjoy looking at yours and am very happy for you.... Congratulations again, and enjoy it.... Cheers

 By: AndrewD : March 3rd, 2011-23:59
It was great to share the new watch with you in Singapore. Hope the new office is successful. Any watch boutiques nearby? I guess the MBS Boutiques are only a taxi-ride away! Kind regards Andrew

5 mins walk if going MBS for watches, 15 mins for all others, 30mins if Hermes

 By: dreamer8 : March 3rd, 2011-15:43
right now. I have been wondering and waiting patiently for you reveal but I had narrowed down my guess based on your posts and questions .Enjoy the watch.

Thanks for sharing the excitement ...

Horological celibacy?? Mrs AndrewD, don't believe him.

Let me be blunt.....

 
 By: Hororgasm : March 4th, 2011-10:17
The only guy in the world that can force horological celiacy upon me is the credit card/bank manager....otherwise...it's shop till you drop. I must be realistic!! You feel likewise? Best, Horo

Fully agree....

Andrew! I'm so happy for you!

 
 By: CaliforniaJed : March 3rd, 2011-21:57

Small world

 
 By: AndrewD : March 4th, 2011-14:23

A masterpiece?

 
 By: AndrewD : March 4th, 2011-14:31

I hope you get one ...

 
 By: AndrewD : March 4th, 2011-14:34
Thanks Andreas, I know you would love one as well, and I hope you get one too. It's a long path but worth it I think. I have appreciated all your Journe posts over the years. Now we have an excuse for a few more! Regards Andrew

Mighty nice, Andrew

 By: AndrewD : March 5th, 2011-02:20
Thanks Kurt, You saw the Octa RdM last July and I have a sneaking suspicion that you will see the Dead Second in May. It's much better in real life than in pictures which don't capture the layers and depth, nor the sound. Andrew

Huge Congrats Andrew!!! =)

So happy for you, Andrew!

It looks beautiful on your wrist, like it was always meant to reside there. I wish you were here so I could toast you in person! Here's to WIS(h) fulfillment! Cheers, Daos

Were you surprised?

 
 By: AndrewD : March 5th, 2011-02:35
I think I was! The DS Tourbillon has come a lot earlier than I expected, but it's fantastic and beyond my wildest dreams. Really. I spent an hour today looking through a 10x loupe trying to work out exactly how the independent seconds and remontoir worked...

Funny how temperature only easily means anything when it's in a format we relate to more easily. I know that 0C is 33F, but have a hard time doing the math after that.

Ah, the "brrr" comment was in response to your -2º C weather, Andreas . . .

I missed this shot the other day, Horo. Nice image. Very characteristic crowns on Peter's watches. He has a very acute design aesthetic. Thanks! Andrew

But with regard to my posts, I always feel my ideas might be all right, but the photographic execution mediocre. Too many people around here who take pics just marvellously! Glad to hear though, you got an idea while watching these pics. Kind regards and ... 

True....

There is a lot of superb photographic execution here.... But, most important are the sharing of ideas, views and passion... Cheers

My second favorite Tourbillon (after you know what ) and it's fantastic to see it displayed so beautifully. Looking forward to seeing and hearing more. How does it sound? Congratulations! Andrew

It sounds fantastic...

 
 By: Vinontre : March 5th, 2011-07:10
Quite different from the sound of other big balance tourbillons I've heard. And it's truly a marvel to behold... That DS is one of my favorites as well! So envious that you got that one! Congrats again C

We have similar tastes ...

 
 By: AndrewD : March 5th, 2011-14:31
... because that La Tradition Tourbillon in platinum (and not the YG version, interestingly, even though I love the simple YG Tradition) and the Haldimann H1 are highest on my list of desirable tourbillons after the F.P.Journe. Throw in a Three-Gold-Bridg... 

Can't Beat that.
