Happy 55, Sir Jocke...

Very interesting that gold watches are still presented to employees in Sweden (notwithstanding your own employer, sadly). In America, gold watches typically were given at retirement. I have my grandfather's gold retirement LeCoultre from 1966 (the watch, that is, not his employer!).
But today gold retirement watches in the USA are of a bygone era. Purely historical, I am sad to say.
I turn 56 next Tuesday, so I am one week shy of being one year older than you
Maybe I will find something new in SIHH/BW 2018 with which to mark my own 56th...
Your watch collection is lovely, all those GO pieces, not to mention the newest two chocolates in your satchel. Happy birthday. How do you manage to wear them all? Best, Marc
