I had no idea this watch existed until this series of posts. But now I want one badly...thank goodness it appears to be impossible to get at MSRP so I won't be tempted to redo financial priorities

Wow that Snoopy is awesome!

The Aquanaut is one of my grails I would love to add some day. Wonder how it would look on leather.

Hahaha it seems I've already made that choice

Probably nice clothes, at least for this time in my life, and I'm blessed to have a few nice watches too. The Aquanaut is something to look forward to down the road (but Reverso comes next).

The bezel is really great on that snoopy.

Congratulations! But bezel looks gold in some pics? Tricks of light?

Thanks -- no gold on this one.

Probably pretty good - but, the rubber strap complements the dial so well that I probably wouldn't change it - unless the rubber wore out and I was waiting for a new one, perhaps.

Agreed, the rubber strap with the dial is a major reason why I like the watch so much. I wouldn't want to change that up.

Post as much as you want. That is an awesome watch. I have my people out, scouring the planet...

Aquanaut looks so great! I think for myself, I'd be inclined to save up another $5-7,000 and get a Nautilus. It's all theoretical at this point, not having the funds or the stomach to really go above $10,000 yet.

This watch, so cute.

The thing I like most about this is that it's just a ton of fun. There's certainly value in beautiful movements, rare dials, etc etc, but stopping just to have fun with a watch is so cool to me.

Went to an MB&F dinner last night. Max Busser is as cool a guy as his reputation makes him out to be. Very open and honest, very approachable.

To NYC TWATers - MB&F will soon be available in NYC, when London Jewelers open a new place downtown.

Very cool pieces in person, even if most of them are way too crazy for me personally.

Finally pulled the trigger on a watch I had been eying for years. Will post pictures over the weekend. It is pre-1970.

Wasn't aware that London was opening a NYC location. I have purchased all my watches through them.
