Give me about two hours and I'll take a few of the one he just got---have to study first. The rest are in north jersey (we're in PA right now) but I'll take pictures of them when I make my way up there on Wed.
 
AN, if you are in PA today try to get over to Peddler's Village and see the gingerbread house display in the gazebo! They are the best entries I have seen in a very long time. In fact so good I could not pick a favorite. I had so many!!

The Lange is my fav!!! :love:
 
Yes yes yes! I haven't forgotten :) They're open tomorrow too, right? I gotta get there.


DF--posting pics soon. SO likes your collection, especially the Lange :love:
 
Thanks, DF, for the pics. I love seeing your watches-they're gorgeous. My dh is pining for a nice watch but he's the kind of person who will wait years to get just what he wants. He's very picky! I'm in the learning stage but I'd like to get him one in the next couple of years. What do you suggest? Haven't you mentioned, in the past, that there are really only a few watch brands that are well made these days? Should I look for a Lange? Other brands? How much should I plan to spend to get something decent?

Btw, my apologies if I am changing the subject here.

IMO...JLC are the best value in high end watches. my next watch (when i have money :rolleyes: ) will either be a Patek Philippe or a JLC.

DF, do you know of a less expensive place to repair a Rolex? Last time I had it fixed (moisture in the watch) by an authorized jeweler it was $750! :shock:

This time he dropped it on tile and the crystal is in a jillion pieces . . .

Wow, those are beauties! Thank you so much for the links. It looks like I'd better start saving my pennies.
 
So so so sorry for the delay:

This is his "non limited" watch, the panda:

First is on my wrist that I just took and the second is on his.

Thanks! I'll post some of the juan pablo montoya ones when I get back to Jersey.
 
I'm showing DF's watches to my DH and we are both drooling! One more question, DF.

While I'm saving my pennies for an investment watch, he also needs a good sports watch. Do you have a suggestion for one that will wear well on the weekends, last a long time (I can replace the band) and not be too huge and bulky?

Oh, man! I was at the purists.com as one of the "regulars" when they were the "new thing" and I could have ordered one for $24,000.

That's what he sold them for in the beginning.

And I had the cash.

I could kick myself!

the last i heard was $38k plus a 7 yr waiting period... :eek:
 
Yes, last I heard was around $40,000, and a six year waiting period. The one that got away. Sigh.

His work is magnificent. His complicated pieces are genius. I'll have to settle for a coffee table book on his work one day.
