Don Corson, Kimi and Da Judge for this great book.
Since 2005, I am learning more and more with all of you Purists on quality and finishings of "Haute Horlogerie".
I have met Laurent Ferrier, but do not know yet Andreas.
I will read with very high pleasure his book and then enter in his world.
Thanks to you ;-)))
Warm regards,
Patrickh
