This building should double as a museum. Is it accessible to the public?

 

Beautiful pictures @divetime, thanks for sharing them.
At that rate looks like you might reach those 200 posts by the end of the thread

That rectangular Longines looks beautiful, it would be great to see a frontal view of the whole watch -- oh and "dibs"!!

 

Bulova Bourbon with stepped case and black inlay, circa 1929.

 

Gruen Orne in 14K white gold with red, blue, gold, and black enamel, circa 1929. I wish Gruen had made a men's version of this watch!

 

Stunning
Is the second one yours?
I would not mind a ladies' watch like this - or course being a woman is an advantage here

 

Thank you very much! Seeing the pieces in your collection, I take that as a huge
compliment

 

It was at one point, it has now passed into the hands of another collector who gifted it to his wife.

 

Thank you yes I m Art Deco Fan. All these nice rectangular watches are not high in demand since everybody seems to collect only big diameter “sporty” watches.
I will post the Türler Longines later - have to find the picture first.

 

"Syrte" here it is according to abstract 1934... quite a big case

 

Very lovely design! Thanks for posting it!
Also agree, @Radiumpassion I love the combination of those graphics and various pieces you have assembled!

 

with pleasure ;-)

 

Unfortunately since it is an active law school it is only open for tours for a few days a year.

I used to go to Miami frequently for work and as you may know there is a large concentration of Art Deco buildings there, especially in South Beach. I borrowed this image from google:



I’m hoping that some of our members from the area will chime in now.

Fantastic! Dibs! (But please take your time as I’m Dibsed out! )

And this is a stunning beauty
