I’ll run this up the flagpole to see who salutes it. (Some Yankee line I picked up somewhere

). You need to get off you lazy bums this time and actually do something.

I want to make the TRF Top-10 of Watches. Just e-mail your personal Top-10 to top.ten@chello.nl and I’ll do the rest. I want to get as many personal lists as possible! After I’ve collected enough lists, I’ll compile these into a poll. And after that, you just cast you’re vote and the TRF Top-10 of Watches will emerge. I’m very, very interested in the results. It can be any watch, even rare pieces that aren’t for sale. Just e-mail your Top-10 of favourite watches.

You can also respond to this thread, I’ll pick it up from there.

So, please all e-mail your list to me! Even those who only lurk, give me your list! If you fell uneasy to use your e-mail address, just get a free account and delete afterwards.

Now do it, TRF needs you!

OK, ex Chief Tosser:

You (but you took your sweet time),
CJ,
Launch Mini,
Atomic.

The rest don't bother. Sigh. They talk the talk but don't walk the walk

In your dreams, Craig!

I'm sure it was a good one, though at the rate that the Dutchie is going, we will never see the light at the end of the tunnel... Yells at us to get 'em in, and then sits there staring at them...

Launch Mini · 23 September 2006, 07:30 AM

My list is in the mail. I only got nine, panic set it, I thought it was a test and drew a blank a the end.
90% is best I can expect on this one.

Launch Mini · 23 September 2006, 08:56 AM

Fingers burned, you need a clip man. Keeps the hot part away from your fingers.

Goodwatch · 23 September 2006, 04:39 PM

After all that blahblahblahblah in this thread, I only received 6 lousy lists! 6 out of 1000+ members

The disappointment, the humiliation of it all. After months of preparation and booking computing time on the Stella BlueGene L super computer of the University of Groningen, 6 lists. My life serves no purpose anymore, this list would have been my ticket into the Watch Hall of Fame. Bye, bye, cruel, cruel world.

So, guys, how about sending me your list? Huh? Like now?

JJ Irani · 23 September 2006, 07:55 PM

I'll give you an A+ for PERSEVERANCE, Frans!!

Let's see now (sound of rustling through hundreds of lists) do I have your list yet? Mmmmm, yes, I do. Bah, 6 lists

Lazy bums! Yeah, hoisting beer by the bucketloads is fine, but making a list is waaaaaaaaaaaaay to much trouble

Done with the beer, here's my list (in no order). I thought I'd keep myself (mainly) grounded and make them mostly 'obtainable' watches:

1. Panerai 111 H-series or later
2. Panerai 217
3. Breitling Navitimer 806
4. Omega Speedmaster cal 321
5. JLC Master compressor Geographic
6. Omega Speedmaster 3570.50 (got this one, hurrah!)
7. AP ROO T3 Chrono (don't know why..ugly & I don't get it, but it's so damn big I swear it has it's own magnetic attraction thing goin' on)
8. Ulysse Nardin Maxi Marine Chrono (rose gold, 266-66)
9. Ulysse Nardin Dual Time (rose gold, 246-55)
10. Rolex 'Double Red' Sea-Dweller

That's about it....for now
