This past weekend we held our 6th French's GTG in Lyon, so around 2 weeks ago I made a nice order not to come empty handed (I felt kind of naked since the robbery). Anyway, the 4 watches didn't arrived on time, so here they are:
Pam 351:
I had to replace the 359 that I wasn't wearing much because I found it to heavy. I like the Bettarini case when they're made of Ti for the lightweight, but the 1950 case are even more heavy, thus the need for Ti. The dial color on this model is astonishing! I didn't take no pic of the caseback as I have the model with the stupid error M1445/500. Might have to order a new caseback but on the other hand, once you check the back of the watch the movement is a bigger tell, so I do not know...
Omega Speedmaster:
This watch has been growing on me slowly over the past 2 years and since my Datograph with Lemania was stolen, it was an excellent reason to give it a go.
Mont Blanc Nicolas Rieussec:
It's a cheap model, with a 21j, but it feel nice on the wrist, and the AR is great (I wasn't able to take a good pic of it).
IWC Portuguese 'Rattrapante':
Again a cheap quartz version, not exactly the one I wanted as I didn't wanted a 'Rattrapante' in 46mm but rather the Chronograph version in 42mm with the blue hand at the 12 o'clock subdial. But it's a nice watch and again a great buy for the price. I'm already in contact with my dealer to get the correct version and I'm not afraid this one will find a new home soon.
I have to add another watch to the latest addition as a good friend of mine who was at the GTG gave me a very sweet present.
Patek Philippe Nautilus:
I also was lurking for this watch for a while and would have been in my next purchase, it's a cheap version with a 21j, but that's the only one available with that dial, the brownish is really sweet, again this watch would be a great buy for anyone.
