I'm Having a Senior Moment...
Well, the newest addition to the herd is this Ebel 1911 Senior...the 40mm SS case houses Ebel's 331 movement, which is basically a Girard-Perregaux 3301..not my 1st Ebel with this movement, as my 40mm Classic Wave also features it..it's keeping pretty good time so far(I've had it since Friday morning)..here's a couple of pics of it and the Classic Wave..
Ebels are a lot like women that lack a lowcut dress that zips up the side..neither gets the love that they deserve..

Re: I'm Having a Senior Moment...
That's really elegant and I've always liked a small seconds sub-dial, together with a grey dial.

Wonderful stuff.
Gaining an appreciation for pieces outside my own experience is exactly why I spend (too much?) time in this place.
Gorgeous examples of the rich history of what fascinates us.

Very stylish. I love the numerals
watching you fail in your quest for a “one watch” has been great entertainment

A really nice addition, Chuck. I love the almost Panerai style of the second sub dial.

Ebel does have a certain elegance and using a GP movement is certainly no shame, nice one Chuck!

Re: I'm Having a Senior Moment...
Another fine Ebel to add to your collection Chuck, I always like a nice display caseback.
