Nice Q, dear J.. Well, let me see.. What to humbly chip in.. ;)

My Holiday Season wearables - sometimes easy, sometimes a bit tricky..
Well, when you were asking, I hesitated a moment, in fact haven't finished my mind-
books on the Xmas & Holiday " outfit"..
Guess, I will just take it, depending on mood and occasion :
but there will be some fixed Holiday season's candidates from my modest "collection":
Such as the TTR 1931, for some evenings, but also for theatre & opera
where we traditionally attend, in a bit of a festive mood & appeal:
Rev TTR===
TT Rev 1931
For that purpose I am often to select my JLC RG Geomatic, a watch I really love, when
going out a bit more fancy...

RG Chronometer - Geomatic.. Perfect to go out !
For planned dinners with friends over the holidays, I expect the TT Polaris to get the nod;
One fresh look on one of my favs !
Polaris, always nice on the wrist, strong presence
and for daywear some Military Vintages ( such as Mark-11 / IWC and VII WWW)
Nice Military Duo: WWW & Mark-11 (IWC)
Military Duo : lft: JLC WWW & rt : Mark - 11
Mark-11, WWW
and / or one of the GMTs 1675, always a colorful choice..
GMT ( one Vintage / 1960, one 1971 1675
2 1675s: Vintage (1960), gilt, PCG, CR, exclam & 1972
2x 1675: one Vintage ( 1960), one a bit younger ( 1972
And finally I will definitely take & enjoy my Vintage piece of the year 2014,
my beloved Explo 6610, for some smart occasions, like a Cocktail..
Explo 6610====
Explorer 6610 (1956), gilt, CR
Explorer 6610.. Rolex Vintage pride..
And now, in the end , I will also showcase a bit my latest arrival, the (TT) Geophysic 1958;
despite some discussions here , led with quite a bit of passion & liveliness,
for me the case is simple:
Geophysic 1958 WS===
(TT) Geophysic 1958
I love my ss/ Crosshair model and I do not deeply mind the model inscription low on the dial,
or that it has got an automatic movement, which I would have not preferred ( so what ?) ;
I would guess, for me it's not a "true" Geophysic, in the historical sense & in puristic collectors' minds,
- but indeed she is just a very nice, low key & elegant watch, with lots of DNA !..
Geophysic 1958 wears comfy on the wrist
And I am more than happy to live with that & love to look down at her ! ..
Wishing you all a Happy Holiday & Festive Season
Best, hs
PS: Sorry if my ramblings were too long, but once I started...
