And thanks for the new photos of the new smaller sized Bulgari Octo. I never noticed it had skeletonized hour and minute hands until I saw your pics. Looks great! http://vl1.watchprosite.com/img/watchprosite/vl1/48/scaled/vl1_image.2943248.jpg Cheers, Ant...  

A very cosy evening by Bvlgari...

Perhaps my favorite complication; repeaters. I hope our friend MTF likes them more and more each year! But I'll ask... Thank you for the coverage Kong!

You remembered!

Could never forget it!

I hear the words "ding dong" watches more in my head than I actually hear the chiming sounds of a minute repeater. Good times. Hope you're doing well Kong.
