Test your knowledge by looking at "hand" only
« on: August 03, 2017, 08:17:52 AM »
This is an interesting article I came across from ablogtowatch back in 2014. How many brand / model can you recognize by just looking at hand?

Without cheating and looking up the article!

I think I can guess a few:

03 Omega (Seamaster)
04 Rolex (Milgauss)
05 Breguet Hands
06 Panerai
07 Rolex (Submariner)
09 I know but can't picture it
10 I also know but just can't picture it!
12 Patek Philippe (Nautilaus)
13 URWERK
15 A.Lange?
16 Audemars Piguet Royal Oak
17 Swatch (Mickey Mouse)?

Can't get anymore on there although a few others look familiar!

9 & 10 Big Bang & Big Pilot! Of course!

Not a fan of the Hublot, or Royal Oaks for that matter but contemplated a Big Pilot for a long time, should have got this one, as I should for 11 the El Primero. Guessed it was a chronograph, but couldn't place it and I contemplated an El Primero for a long time as well.

Ultimately I didn't purchase either, so maybe I can be excused.
