    The Tag Monaco is lovely, almost bought one myself a while back.

    Sorry, l was unclear, my fault.
    The other tag (the aquagraph) is the one for sale not the monaco.
    Highly recommend the monaco if you're thinking of buying one.

    Considering I was the one who pushed for this forum to begin with, I should at least post up my watches. I will try to get actual pictures of them all, but can't due to my crappy iPhone camera.

    I received this watch for my 21st back in 2001. It still has the same battery and is just a beast. Has gone through a lot in work with all the machines I work with.

    I was always a big fan of digital watches, and got this one. have to love the luminesent light too, really good a nighttime.

    Girlfriend bought me this for my birthday when we started going out. At first i didn't really like it, cause I loved my gShock, but i wear this watch now nearly everyday. I love the way the hour number lean to the right a bit.

    I bought this on eBay about 3 years ago for about 100quid. For some reason i can't reset one of the hands on it and I'm not impressed. I love Chronos now though.

    This is the Lotus Sport model, mine is the non sport model. Non-sport doesn't have the red paint on the hands and second increments. I really liked this and it weights a tonne. This is my dressy watch all the time. Another picture below shows the detail of the watch which is from the non-sport model.

    I'm a refugee from TZ-UK which is having a little trouble with a Denial of Service attack at the moment. It is now 72 hours since my last post on there and I can't hack cold turkey any longer. I thought it rude to post without an introduction so thought this might be an opportune place to start.

    There are more to come but I thought it best to start off with something.

    Very nice. Love the Fliegerchronograph.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Thanks for the compliment but I think it pales into insignificance compared to your middle one here.

    As a matter of interest does it have any military markings on the caseback? My understanding is that these were Versailles Treaty sanctions busters for the Luftwaffe so they were normally without.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,027 Mod ✭✭✭✭Wibbs


    Nope you're spot on, no markings on the back. My typo on the year though, it was 1935.

    I've heard them referred to as luftwaffe 1928 pattern watches. I've even heard they were designed to a pattern of Hermann Goering's design. Little info beyond that though. I've seen omega, helvetia zenith and a longines one. Sadly missed out on the latter when I had the chance. Most of them had the subsidiary seconds. I have even seen one without a second hand by design. The strangest one I ever saw was a small boys/ladies scaled down version under 30mm across.

    This is one of my favourite watches (not in the link thats just a similar one but mine is identical without the full hunter) and was wondering does anyone have a similar one or ever seen one like it? :confused:http://www.antique-watch.com/des/w4967.html


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,027 Mod ✭✭✭✭Wibbs


    No never saw one like that. Very nice.

    Just discovered this forum and I have always had an interest in good watches. This is a watch I bought from an older guy at work in 1974 I was only 18 at the time, I gave him a 100 pounds for it. I have never worn it very much, recently got it serviced and it keeping almost perfect time.

    I have the top one but an automatic rather than kinetic. Nice watch but a little big for me , trying to flip at the moment!
    Also have a Maurice Lacroix quartz chrono LC1038, nice classy watch.

    posted on tz-uk a few weeks back, but this is the current state of my collection save for a nice seiko diver that i have incoming for honeymoon duties!

    I think there is decent balance at the moment, two chronos and two non, two white and two black faced watches and all are watches that i am comfortable wearing with a suit as well as more casually (ecept maybe the iwc which is a little dressier)

    I also picked up a rapport 8 watch box at christmas time from amazon at a great price, delighted with it and the quality is great for the £60 odd i paid.

    All together
