Only small crowns
Nov 16, 2014,10:26 AM
I have a weakness for them. Elegant. Yet sporty. First a 6205 (ex Joes / Barons) which I bought earliler this year. Closeup of the dial (credit DB).
Next a 6205 together with a 6536-1 bought at Bonhams in 2012
Next all four small crown together. Two of them are 6536-1 with only 100 serial Nrs away from each other. Notice all the correct bezel inserts (I am most proud of that).
Last the 6536-1 which I bought at Bonhams in 2012 for relatively little money. Its the best example of a 6536-1 I have seen (together with Eric Ku's personal one)
I am still looking for a small crown 4Line perhaps a 5508 or a 6536-1 (4L) and then will stop with the crown crowns.
For some reason (I am not sure it has to do with finances) I am hesitant to step into the big crown territory yet. Perhaps its still nice to dream.
Maybe the right example has not yet appeared. Who knows.
