JohnPilot 1 Posted June 21, 2013 The egi looks awesome JP. Why are you going to sell it? I did put in a lot of work and love but I never wear it, its way too heavy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James. 4 Posted June 21, 2013 Hopefully it'll arrive soon for some finishing work from athaya. Ill post a pic once it arrives, it'll be sterile, but when done a nice aged brown. Rusty almost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rocky4691 0 Posted June 21, 2013 Beautiful collection, I didn't feel to bad til I saw that now I'm sick with envy. I absolutely love the color of the Rolex date just 2 and the pearl in your sub looks great , so much better than the replacement pearl I had to put in mine after losing the original. Please keep these great pics coming, it gives me many more options for my wish list. Thanks for the post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please keep these great pics coming, it gives me many more options for my wish list. Thanks for the post Thanks mate, I am happy that there is still interest. I don't know the maker of my sub LV, bought it on Bali, but there are diff. bezel replacement qualities available. Maybe you should just try to get a better one. Or go for a self fix with epoxy. Here a pic of my 187 with selfmade pearl. It was my first try, now they get much better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheSav 2 Posted June 21, 2013 That blue stingray strap looks awesome on the 187 JP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xebryus 0 Posted June 21, 2013 I haven't commented in this thread yet, but after seeing that Glashutte, I have to. I love that watch completely. Very very beautiful piece JP! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sakurai 1 Posted June 21, 2013 Just popping in to say I am totally in awe of the watches you have posted so far, what an amazing collection and display of good taste. Since sticking my head in here the first time I come back every day to enjoy the daily update, so fingers crossed the end is still far far away. Thanks for sharing, great photos as well!

JohnPilot 1 Posted June 22, 2013 Thanks mates. Maybe I should include my Glashütte box into this thread if you like them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baxter 6 Posted June 22, 2013 This thread is amazing JP - I don't comment every day but never fail to check in great watches and great photos. The glashutte is reminiscent of many watches of that era but the 6 & 12 really make it special - love it !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnPilot 1 Posted June 22, 2013 Thanks Jess, the Glashütte factory had an enormous choice of very well made watches. Their automatic movement spezimatic gained several competitions. There are several great books about but only in german. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
