Gosh, mfserge, that is a thing of beauty.

Tried on a very similar Chopard today... Perpetual calendar, display back, really innovative moon phase, limited edition (111/250, for those who care about LE numbers ;D)... £40k. :'(

Who needs a second kidney, really? Plus I'd have to get something for my spleen, tonsils and appendix, right?

I really wish people would stop posting pics of that watch. Every time I forget about it, it comes back to haunt my dreams. That's gotta be the dumbest looking watch I've ever seen. I even like Roff's binocular looking watch better than that thing.

This exact color combo. For me, pure perfection

Dude;

Dont be talking trash.

My Grail ?
Breitling Navitimer series.
Pick one. Any one.
These eyes just cant read the damn things...
"Hey buddy; what time is it ?"
Me; " Haven't a clue".

Nice to see that you were able to pick up got one of the watches that you had previously listed as a grail Serge.

I've been fortunate enough to get 3 of the original 5 that I listed as grails....sadly they're all gone now. I may need to redefine what I consider a grail...although the XXI I really miss!!

To me, that's the joy and the frustration of this little obsession. There are so many fabulous watches out there that it's difficult to maintain a true "grail". (Either that or I have undiagnosed ADD) Add to that the fact that personal tastes change (right now I don't have a single gold piece and I'm not interested in one now) and each year brings a new style or variation, and the concept of a "grail" seems a moving target. If you MUST have a Patek, a ROO or a gold Sub, obviously this is not so much a problem. But the options out there are mind-boggling. The bezel on the Fifty Fathoms has me mesmerized, but I still feel the need for JLC. I didn't even know my Breguet was a grail until I saw it and tried it on. A large basic stainless Royal Oak still has my interest, and there are at least two GOs I really want to spend time with. And though not a grail, I just saw a steal of a stainless Evo show up--if I wasn't tapped right now...AARgh!!
