Here I go - IWC Portuguese Vintage Collection ...
Team,
Love this amazing balanced dial.
The Vintage Collection was released in 2008 and I was glad to capture this piece untouched.
On the wrist, the 44mm does not see to be that big.
B&W to close.

WristScan for 3/15 starts now! Free theme
PSM on my wrist today. Picture was taken during the holidays but another 12 inches of snow yesterday makes it feel like Christmas again. Looking forward to seeing which watch will be on everyone's wrist this weekend Hagwe. Mike ...
AHHHGGG!! The Devil´s wrist again!! I´m crossing index fingers of each hand as always do when viewing this terrifying shot!!...
... The watch is adorable though!! Lol! Hagwe my friend Nicolas!! Abrazos! Abel
One modern, one (very) old this weekend.
Hi Mike, great PSM, although I really want to see Spring and not Xmas For me, I will alternate between my modern GP Richeville Night/Day: And my latest catch, the early 1940s Mimo Tank Art Deco watch. HAGWE, CC ...
You r not the only one
Tell that to Mother Nature. We have had 20 inches of snow last 10 days! It sure doesn't feel like Spring Cheers. Mike ...
That Mimo is beautiful!
Fantastic Patina on the hands. Enjoy the weekend my friend Stefan
What did the hulk choose to accompany
His fine tastes in wine😄 Thanks for sharing, Mike
I really like that first naturalistic photo.
I know so many people that would be afraid to take that photo because they may h scratch the bracelet. 😁 Have a good weekend, Mike
I'm so jealous
That is a superb watch. One day, one day I will need to add it to the collection Cheers and thanks for sharing, Mike
Thank you Mike, Nico, Alkiro, and Watchonthewrist for seeing my watch and for your kind words 🙏
My fondness for this one has only grown over the past 10 years of ownership!
Thank you.
I've got clutter everywhere else so it's nice to have something straight forward.
As a fellow owner of a Habring2, I applaud your taste :)
The Felix makes grace and simplicity look effortless!
Thanks for the comments everyone
Here is another shot while taking my colleagues new Giulia for a spin ...
Despite the same dial color
They are so different in style. Excellent choices. Hagwe. Mike
But answering to your quoestion
in the meantime i m having some new mates in Geneve;-) some trustworthy Japanese ...
Excellent companions
No matter which watch is gracing your wrist this weekend. Thanks for sharing. Mike

Love the squared off lugs
and clean symmetric dial Nice choice... Thanks for sharing, Mike
Wow, I never noticed that the crystal was
in that boxed configuration. Really cool Thanks, I always learn something new from you Nilo. Best, Mike
Trying to find an aeronautical theme
Not easy if you don’t have much at home I figured an inverted tripod looks like a propeller ...
It looks like a propeller, you did a good job improvising
Great vintage find...these are harder to come by. Thanks for sharing, Mike
I really like the B/W theme of the first photo too!
We are having some similar weather where I live. Thanks for sharing, Mike
Very nice
I have to agree with all the other comments....so jealous of the weather and watch I enjoyed your entry this week. Best, Mike
A free theme to me provides an opportunity to...
... share two spiced up shots of the Blancpain Tribute to Fifty Fathoms MilSpec 😉 Hope you enjoy! Have a great weekend everyone! Cheers Henrik ...
Beautiful
to see this on the wrist and not still wrapped up in box and double plastic like other owners Very impressive entry Best, Mike
yumm Cherries
you have a great eye, that first photo is a good play with the dial color. Best, Mike
Obscure Doxa, following on the earlier Doxa that S.F. posted
Continuing my recent trail of acquisitions - another jumbo vintage time-only, this time from Doxa. Acquired via the kindness of a fellow collector... 38mm, blued hands, a dial I love, and some sharp lugs. Whoo hoo! ...
Serious contender for this week's Watch of the Week
Great catch Thank you very much for sharing HAGWE, Mike
You are doing a good job picking up on some vintage beauties
I really like how that second hand is bend to adjust for parallax and how it extends to the seconds display...amazing how some modern brands cannot even get these subtle details right now days. Thanks for sharing, Mike
Ode to Better Times
My theme this week is "Ode to Better Times", when I felt really happy and at peace with the watch and surroundings. Peaceful times and calm positive energy. PuristS Passion Seiko ANA Pilot's Watch PuristS Editions with Grappa and a Friend from Amsterdam L...
I'm responsible for the PuristSPro watch photos but not the bikini
The bikini from Amsterdam is the responsibility of...er...a guy from Amsterdam But I poured in the contents of the 'bikini' and I liked it! What's not to like? 45% alcohol. Regards, MTF
if we all could live life like in the first photo
then "thePuristS" would never exist but I will be happy with the beer and LUC 1963 Best, Mike
Don't get me started on ideology
Mike, We've known each other for 13 years in real life and longer online. You know my beliefs. People are free to mull over their own philosophy but actually, the pursuit of PuristS does not need to involve excess of the materialistic. If we pursue perfec...
At least one of these will be on my wrist this weekend, Mike . . .
[left to right: '44 Ω ref 2364, '46 ref 2365, '46 ref 2364] . . . and possibly all three. Best, Art ...
I prefer sub to sweep seconds overall, Alkiro . . .
. . . but there's only one sweep in my rg collection, so it's arguably the most treasured. It was on my wrist today, and most of this last week. Art
I'm keeping an eye out for you, Nicolas. There was another ref 2364 . . .
. . . that just sold on eBay, but it was gold. Remarkably, five 2364s have changed hands in the last three months. I don't believe five original specimens have popped up in the last three years . Your time is coming soon, my friend! Art
You don't see a trifecta like this very often
I'd be changing every day...just wouldn't know how to pick one to wear. Hope all is well Art, Mike
I should get the other two . . .
. . . out of the safe deposit box for a group portrait. All's well here, Mike. Just dropped Don Corson off at his digs in LA . . . we had dinner together earlier today. Wish you were here! Art
yeah, me too!
Fellowship done in 3 months but Amy put her foot down... Happy wife, happy life. Dinner sounds fun! Best, Mike
Ken is in town tomorrow . . .
. . . so I'm going in another direction on Sunday. Nothing better than hanging out with fellow Purists! Hope to see you here in LA sometime, CC. Best, Art ...
Hello Mike!! I feel I will play with a vintage chrono...

oozes class all the way
love the faded moonphase and dial layout...no sub dials that are superimposed! Thanks for sharing that beauty Abel and HAGWE, Mike
My big pleasure to share it here Mike! I’m happy...
... to know you like it! Hagwe! Abel
He, He Love that Zombie shot
my 6 yo son was looking over my shoulder wondering if you were alive and said: "dad you need to call 911 and get the police to dig him out" (we've had so much snow the last two weeks, he really thought you were buried) Pretty good considering most people ...
Your lucky she didn't take your watch and leave you permanently under the snow :-)
I know some guys here in the US that have lost their collections to their wives...good because their wives picked up their "hobby" and started wearing their watches. Bad because some wives left and monetized their collection :-( Here is too hoping that al...
Great for pictures - not sure about eating them!
The factory has been on television & it's amazing
Cool... Free theme right?

Never seen that Floral designed dial on a Deville before
but that last wristshot of the Seamaster is really good! Best, Mike
"less is more" so true is almost all aspects of life...
Love how that vintage lume just pops in your photo, so versatile for all sorts of strap choices too ! Thanks for sharing, Mike
Very nice choice for the weekend
especially if you are travelling out of the timezone and you get a chance to pop that blue indicator hand all the way out Cheers, Mike
Stunner, a rare bird
I know we live in our virtual PuristS community but in the USA I've only seen one out in public... Best, Mike
A Ladoire Mr Green Black Widow. Wahoo! The kind of brand and watch we don’t see everyday. Very cool
Happy St Patrick’s Day and go Ireland. I hope you’ll do the Grand Slam today (I’m a rugby fan 😋). Best wishes Alkiro
That is a nice Macro
I always like to see the thickness of the enamel dial around the date window. Thanks for sharing, Mike
the "community" watch
One day for wristscan we should all put up photos of watches we bought because of PuristSPro.... Luckily this Seiko doesn't burn a huge hole in the wallet given all its wonderful characteristics. Thanks for sharing, Mike
Ok, so let me see.. With what humbly to come up..
Breguet Marine Gd Date - sporty but with charm to dress up Ochs & Junior Calendar & Moonphase Ochs & Junior - cool appeal MIH - the perfect low key coolness of a Year Calendar Simply love that unobtrusive design language Rolex 6610 gilt ...
Well, the choice - Yes.. But I guess the GP Great Date, GMT, Moon will get the nod..
.. Thx for your as always so kind looking ! Very Best & HAGWE !! hs
Love the Gilt and Breguet Marine
I can't imagine having to pick which one to wear much less having to choose them between the Ochs and MIH too! Have a good weekend Best, Mike
Really "old school"
When it is sunny out, is it easy to work? Thanks for that unique sharing, Mike
I’ll join you Mike with a PSM for old times sake...

A long time ago
Thanks for joining in. Here is a fond table shot of a dinner 10 years ago where you and I met with three other PuristS... My rose gold Picaddilly joins your Platinum Yes I agree the new Speake Marin is different in design and philosophy. Perhaps I purchas...
Ah Mike, I remember this dinner in SF if I’m not mistaken.
There’s a couple of old favs in that pic, the YG VC Les Historiques Chrono particularly I miss. But oh well. Cheers, Tim
Very nice...
For sure this blue enamel dial is a PuristS favorite. Perhaps other brands will take note? Cheers, Mike
How can you beat Seiko as a value proposition? . . .
