Excellent trio, Henrik!
Skipper - I don't own any, from the photos, I must agree that the 73464 is the most balanced.
Speedy - I agree that cal.321 Speedies with the applied logo on the dial is more classic than the cal.861 dial with the painted logo.
Seafarer - what can I say - they're are just so so beautiful.
Love your Heuer Skipper website I must say!
I would love to own a Skipper - but then again I'd also love to own a 2446GMT, and a Carrera 12 Dato, and maybe a Camaro 7220...you get the idea!

: Morning folks,
: that wasn´t an easy decision, the task to show the 3 most weared
: watches would be much more easier.
: Every watch got an own flavour and charm for different situations.
: And there are a lot of nice watches out there...
: But in the end, these are the current 3 all-time high of feelings:
: 1. Heuer Skipper
: There have to be one Skipper in my selection, of course. Not easy
: to decide, which Skipper is the coolest, I love them all. But -
: I think from the proportions of the dial and the colors it´s
: the 73464 to me.
:
:
: 2. Omega Speedmaster Pre Moon
: Maybe the most classical Chrono ever and this was my first chrono.
: The "pre moon" (was build 1966/1967) is the nicest for
: me with the not printed Omega-Sign (is it "appliqué
: logo" in english?) and the stepdial. The size, comfort of
: the case on the wrist is like it should be - fantastic. If
: possible on the 1039 bracelet - make noise but looks cool.
:
:
: 3. Abercrombie & Fitch Seafarer
: The 3rd was quite difficult, against the „normal“ black 2446
: this sister is the winner. One of the most beautiful dials ever,
: cool 2446c case, 3 compax, charming colors, rare. And hey - it
: shows the tide for fishermans and skippers! ;)
:
:
: I am very curios about the next selections… till now not even a
: suprise just John - never thought you are in pocketwatches so
: deep! But the history make them worth enough - very nice to
: read.
: Darren - very cool, dude! Olaf - near my taste! and Ben - you made
: it too easy with 2 choices ;) Peter - the field of diver is
: large, but your choice is fine. Stewart - the 2446C is full ack,
: it is similar to the milestones like the Daytona or Speedmaster.
: But your Carrera will cry the whole day in the backpocket ;)
: Paul - stunning like expected! But I thought to see the Yachting
: Carrera... maybe its Nr. 4. And I always wish I had your
: photographers skills!
: All the other - thanks for showing, its a pleasure to explore your
: most loving gems.
