Hi All,

After having had the privelege of experiencing Nautilus, Royal Oak, Overseas, RM and many in-between, here are the two that I am enjoying most in my 50th year in the world.

Let me know what you all think. For me, GF and MB&F represent the best in craftsmanship, individuality and pure pleasure in experiencing the passing of time.

For the record, they are my two main pieces in a small collection.

I look forward to hearing from the WIS World....

Congrats. The MB&F piece is off the charts exquisite. Excellent choice. Wear them in good health.

amazing, especially the MB&F

congratulations!

Congrats, such an epic pairing! Love to think of watches in pairs. I made a similar move, now I just cycle between two indies and a beater.

Congrats. Enjoy them in good health.
For me, Greubel Forsey is on a different level. No one even come close to them.

Cannot fault your choices. Really exceptional stuff.

Happy birthday and love those independents. Bravo!

llngoc · 1 October 2022, 04:15 AM

Same here. (No GF for me though) After I experienced some of the independents like MB&F; PP, AP and Rolex do not feel "special" anymore. I still like them and wear them depending on the occasion but not at the same level anymore.

BTW, I love the LMP.

Two of the best independent pieces out there, amazing, wear them in good health!

Man... you're really giving me 'food for thought'. Thx again for posting.

7sins · 2 October 2022, 07:44 AM
