Or a mess of Captains...



...another installment in the "Lunch with LouS" series. LouS was kind enough to descend into the crush of pilgrim consumers around Times Square last Saturday and meet me and my daughter for lunch... a welcome respite from a whirlwind weekend of extreme tourism. He brought some killer Captains (eternal dibs on the pink cal 71) and of course some heart-breaking chronos. I brought my Captains, my A386 for the papal blessing, the Cairelli, and a small assortment of things LouS ain't got... which narrowed down the choices.

Here's the wide view of the smorgasbord and a detail. Next time I'll bring a real camera.





Thanks to LouS for lunch and for schlepping some treasured pieces down to Midtown on short notice. Hope to meet the rest of the NY/NJ ΩF contingent next time... you know, when there ain't a young lady present.

 

Dazzling array!

 

Hope one member does not post he's Captains photo again (styypyggeno1)

It will cost me too much of my new watch fund

 

I would love to have a mint sample of vintage Zenith Captain in gold or pink gold.......

 

And that stash's just from 2 guys.

 

Those Tricompaxes! One day, maybe in ten years, I'll find one like that silver dialed one. It's my personal grail.

You could make things easier and just give it to me, of course.

Wonderful collection! So many nice chronos.

 

Stunning collection....
