I Wore a "Rindt" Today
In Response To: Re: amazing watches & photos ()

I thought of posing the question, "Which Autavia Did You Wear Today?" . . . Here's my answer . . .

We love the early ones with the big registers, and they are certainly "collectible", but this might be the best looking of all (at least to my eye)!!

: Thanks Shaun!
: Actually, the faulting handed v92 I sold to Manuel, I kinda regret
: that a little, but I am happy others got to enjoy it.
: The lume on the hands is amazing, but it's not original. When I
: bought it, it had been resumed in white, so James resumed it to
: a vintage hue, he did an amazing job.

: As for my favourite, that's difficult, it depends what mood I'm in.
: The Rindt has a lively vintage warm feeling when I wear it, but
: the later 11063 Gmt & Decomp really 'do it' for me, superb
: watches and a little underrated in the world of Autavia.

: My photo set-up...
: I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you.. I'm no photographer, in
: the true sense of the technical side. I use a light tent, x2
: mini lights and an old point n shoot panasonic lumix 7mp.
: I'm pretty handy in Photoshop, so fiddle with the light/contrast
: etc.

: Cheers
: Stewart
