746_heuer 0 Posted June 3, 2013 (edited) Is that dial painted? Yes they are all painted. You have sandwich dials and sausage dials but all of them are painted because they are mostly made of brass. I meant why did you get a sausage dial for a 111? Or was there an old 111 with sausage dial? Impressive 7days, btw, congrats.

Sausage is nice but must have good OEM lume. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sbryantgb 0 Posted June 4, 2013 Love the Laco 55mm. I had never seen one before. I now must go further in debt and find one:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnPilot 1 Posted June 4, 2013 Love the Laco 55mm. I had never seen one before. I now must go further in debt and find one:) Its quasi a superrep from WWII model. Laco did build a lot of those watches, but it quasi unwearable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheSav 2 Posted June 4, 2013 You spoilt us with number 8 JP. Beautiful. You have an envious collection so far. Are you daily choices also the ones you have decided to wear that day? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kcore 0 Posted June 4, 2013 I absolutely LOVE this vintage Omega Contsellation. BEAUTUFUL!!! I'll hazard a guess and say rep because of the shape of the case. I've seen a few of the Constellation F300s that have this amazing tuning fork movement and all incl the the Cone case Constellation had almost no case material at the crown. They were basically bezel with minimal case. Either way a great watch that I would very much like to have. Thank you for showing it off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Visioneer 132 Posted June 4, 2013 A nice variation of beauties...keep them coming. If I keep looking at all the nice watches on the site then I may get satisfied with just being a looker....NOT! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Laco did build a lot of those watches, but it quasi unwearable. just noticed there is a vintage B-UHR 47mm for sale in the M2M section. More wearable than the 55mm, but still looks the biz. If I hadn't just purchased a Railmaster would probably snap it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnPilot 1 Posted June 4, 2013 You spoilt us with number 8 JP. Beautiful. You have an envious collection so far. Are you daily choices also the ones you have decided to wear that day? I did start taking pics of my collection the last days. Basically I take out a box and do a shooting of a dozen watches. These are then uploaded and used for my tread. I wasn't sure people like vintages but I see you do. Great. I absolutely LOVE this vintage Omega Contsellation. BEAUTUFUL!!! I'll hazard a guess and say rep because of the shape of the case. I've seen a few of the Constellation F300s that have this amazing tuning fork movement and all incl the the Cone case Constellation had almost no case material at the crown. They were basically bezel with minimal case. Either way a great watch that I would very much like to have. Thank you for showing it off. Its gen, cases were quite "easier" in those times. Movement in excellent running condition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheSav 2 Posted June 5, 2013 Number 9 is a other beauty JP. I'd love to see a shot that better catches the colour of the dial. All the pics i see these look pretty much black. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnPilot 1 Posted June 5, 2013 Second pic shows the real colour. I had to put it in direct sunlight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheSav 2 Posted June 5, 2013 So very dark blue it is. I like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnPilot 1 Posted June 5, 2013 Depends really on the light. I think blue dials are quite hard to shoot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arancini 0 Posted June 5, 2013 Ahhhh..the PAM Amerigo Vespucci. One of my all time faves. Loving the Blue face. Ever think of selling it JP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just got it yesterday. But I can recommend warmest David Sen, he has a few left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheSav 2 Posted June 6, 2013 You can see the blue in the rolex dial a lot better than on the 082. I'd still have the 082 though. Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink. Nice pics JP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arancini 0 Posted June 6, 2013 I absolutely detest the design of Rolex Gens or Reps, but I must say, that Blue face dial is bloody stunning JP. And interesting point about having a blue face in your collection. Always thought a white dial equated with summertime. Brilliant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And interesting point about having a blue face in your collection. Always thought a white dial equated with summertime. Brilliant. Thats interesting. My most loved summertime watch was an IWC Cousteau, it was blue and orange. At one moment those were so higly asked that I sold it for 2x the official price. But I still regret it. So for me summer is blue and orange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
