Thanks for sharing your story Tony! I really enjoyed it! What a great series of high quality photographs of the Vingt-8! You have done well! It was a pleasure to meet you the other Thursday! Hopefully one day I'll be able to see your Observatoire!

I never get tired of looking at Kari's masterpieces, and I also enjoyed the nice back-story. Must have been neat to be the first "outsider" to handle the new watch. Darren

More to follow. I have shots of nearly all the SIHH brand offerings from 2011, as well as copious notes from the press presentations. It takes a bit of cogitative effort to marshal one's thoughts on the various releases, then construct an overview and com...
