<<<<<<<< Is it a Beagle ?

Not a beagle. Though now I'm a little sad that it's not a beagle. And hungry, because you've got me thinking bagel.

Marine chronometre!

Sorry Gavin, you've been disqualified for excessive clock-blocking in 2013. The CK2998-61 was the final straw. Does anyone else have a guess?

No. I am philosophically opposed to perpetual motion machines.

Thermodynamic laws support your philosophical opposition 馃槈

Not in Oz, obviously. If I were there, the bottle would of course be oriented thusly:

I saw the very top of this pic on my phone before scrolling down further, and I thought Oh WOW he's got a Mac Pro! Nope just a bottle lol

These are beautiful time pieces from the classy wood down to the killer electric blue hands, they are just fantastic. Put this on a table/desk or whatever and it just works. It is a time piece you can put on show all the time.

What a way to end the year!

Thanks for sharing.

My wallet tells me I shouldn't get one,

My brain tells me I don't need one,

My quartz wall clock tells me extremely accurate time,

But my WIS heart tells me I want one!

Don't listen to the first 3. 馃槈

You f馃がing guys are killing me. Being a boat lover all my life I need one of these. Wonder if any Longines models are around?

Haven't seen any 馃檨

Mostly Hamiltons from the US, Zenith/A Lange, Glasshutte etc from Europe, Thomas Mercer/Dent and others from the UK, and heaps of Russkie Kirovas/Poljots.

However, if your Longines tuned nose happens to sniff one out, let us all know 馃榾

If one exists, there might be an incoming thread some time in the future.

I don't know guys - there's something strange with the alignment of LONGINES on that dial.
