I apologize sincerely for not dropping a note it is very hectic lately Looks like this year we will be friends only virtually but we have all next year ahead We must make it Once more sorry for forgetting to PM you D
It is hectic enough with our one child, so I can imagine that with three sometimes things fall off the radar. So no apologies necessary - looking forward to those cevapi and grappa!
....i saw it in Paris, and the dealer had bought a number of watches from the same family. It came with its original unworn Gay Freres white metal strap and its original box, I had never seen a dial like it. I had to make it mine. I sent it to Patek for s...
Il pleure dans mon coeur Comme il pleut sur la ville ; Quelle est cette langueur Qui pénètre mon coeur ? It rains in my heart As it rains on the town, What languor so dark That it soaks to my heart? P. Verlaine this second pic is not spectacular and i gue...

tables in Paris in my time I've seen men getting headache and scratching their head I've seen men hard at work and all of it thanks to our Count Vladimir I've traveled across city far and wide and loved it more and more Silent moments and moments that I f...
It's weird but I never thought of taking the landscapes of Paris pictured with a nice watch on my wrist, anyway I do not have any good one. So a big thank you to everyone for these wonderful pictures of my beloved Paris.
But until then, maybe a shot of a watch you have been wearing when in Paris? Or why not a shot of a watch you associate whit the city...? HAGWE Blomman
That's how I will remember it - we were young and in love, and she said yes in the garden of the Musee Rodin: As for the watch, I choose to go with one with 'Paris' on the dial: ...
What a excellent example of Paris, the City of Love! And a great watch to follow! You should share it more often, here or over at the GP forum. HAGWE Blomman
Busy on my business, I don't have time to travel. I don't have pictures that can honor Paris. Memories: My only watch (not mine anymore) that saw Paris. A Memovox, that's now belongs to a dear friend. Watches that I think can match Paris beauty: 1) Duomet...
Great theme Blommam. I have not posted since last October 2014 but I visit regularly . Just to prove I do visit , I know Thomas Mao was profiled in Robbs Report and gentleman Mark in Paris is now a Patek moderator ( warm congratulations ). On my wrist is ...
And sharing your story. Sad to hear that after almost 30 years ago and still this kind of madness. We hope for more peaceful days ahead! Good to know you are still with us even if not actively posting. HAGWE Blomman
Not sticking strictly to your theme and celebrate Paris and writing about the terrorism in 1986. We enjoyed Paris and the rest of France . Culture , museums , the left bank , historic buildings and food were some of the highlights . Cheers , dreamer
Thanks a lot for your warm congratulations Dreamer and we are glad you keep on reading us. It is indeed an incredible story and I'm looking forward to more pieceful times indeed. Thanks for participating to this thread Dreamer, take care Cheers, Mark
As I have read your watch reviews . You see the tiniest details and nuances which you described so succinctly . I still remember you , after looking at a panoramic shot of San Francisco I posted in timeout , asked me why there are 2 churches located so cl...
We must never give in and let terrorism prevent us from going about enjoying our lives . We were advised to cancel our trip to Paris and the rest of France in 1986 due to terrorism in Europe but we chose to ignore and continued with our trip. One blessing...
Unfortunately it\'s already 18 months since my last short visit to the City of Light, need to come back soon! Here is a shot from Trocadero down to the Tour Eiffel I took on my last visit: When it comes to watches, I cannot provide a Paris wristshot, but ...
great memories, great friends,always a great time, that's Paris! Here are two park bench shots. I know Blomman already showed his version of the same bench, but these are my photos, my memories CC ...
Wonderful city with so much to do! Unfortunately,not many scenery shots taken over the years---more in memory... but what memories! with a friend on the rooftop of printemps the many delicious gourmet meals over the years al fresco dining on the champs el...
You seem to have had a very nice time in Paris Blomman and had a very considerate host with Nicolas. I don't have much of these "Paris" pictures but I could find one which is more French tahn Parisian only but hereit is: The traditional Baguette sandwich ...
I still get a smile on my face when I see the people of Paris with their baguette in the hand in the street! I never saw this habit anywhere else... Wonderful! HAGWE Blomman
Everyone has posted so many great photographs of great times. It is wonderful to see and to have something to look forward to. Merci. A Paris. Bientot.
I have no doubt that Paris will recover from the cowardice acts of terrorism, if not already. Always love the City of Lights. Here's one of me and SheWhoMustBeObeyed sporting our MB&Fs during one of our trips to Paris. Here's another that was taken earlie...
I first visited more than 25 years ago. On that first trip I learned why this iconic shape is held so dear by Mr. Frenchman. Because it represents that which is essential for every visit, and for every joy or sorrow shared between men and women. Over the ...
I was fresh out of college and was visiting Europe for the first time. I stayed at a hostel in St. Germain, having a baguette for breakfast and dinner, but partying until the wee hours. Good times for sure! Like you, nowadays, better hotels, crowds, bars,...
.. many wonderful buildings and a spectrum of moods ! Als numerous pictures taken there .. Hope you therefore will allow to submit a kaleidoscope of pics, featuring several watches, watches with connection, watches in lovely moments. Thus, not one single ...
In front of a No. 7 in Place Vendome, a place which I am sure many here have known. Enjoying a cold beer on a sunny afternoon. A dream come true! Being at Roland Garros this past spring. What better way to cool down after an afternoon stroll than with a B...
And, actually, I have been wearing it a lot lately! What a great treat it is to wear it! Cómo estás, Nico? Te mando un abrazo fuerte y aquí estoy para lo que necesites, aunque sea una simple charla. Abrazo, Alejandro
. . . a very long time ago. July, 1968, to be exact . . . shortly after the student riots. Obviously, the watch to wear . . . . . . would be the Sixties. ...
. . . but one never knows; perhaps there will be an opportunity next year. I might well be in Europe, although not scheduled to be in France. Best, Art
Did not know that the architecture was GUB based - thanks! Your watch is right up my strasse, too but not sure if student riot approved - there the Senator Sixties may well have the edge
Here is my contribution. I've never been to Paris, but I see and read, it's C'est Magnifique! My watch posed with some famous French art. (It is very difficult shooting wrist photos.) These are all French artists posing with my watch, with a bit of a twis...
The kind of wristwatches ladies used to wear in Paris in the 1940's. Integrated bracelet, often with the watch dial hidden.... The following scans are from Jaeger-LeCoultre 1945 catalog: Thank you for joining us with your great line of French art, Helen! ...
I love wearing my bangle and charm bracelets and I love wearing my watches. Now if I could find a charm bracelet with a watch uniquely integrated into it. Thank you so much for posting the beautiful vintage Jaeger-LeCoultre watch bracelets. Helen

Paris! Just a couple of hours away, but i am far more often in Brisbane, Singapore or Dubai than in Paris. Well, thats for Business, while Paris is for the heart. First a disappointment to see the Breguet Boutique and Museum closed (June 2014), but then t...
The wife and I have always planned to go but then we kept having kids and never had time But now we have decided to make the time to go, to show support, and demonstrate to these terrorists that life goes on...their mission much like their lives a wasted ...

I learned so much and met so many nice collectors. Even an esteemed Japanese collector who obviously forgot that we had a nice 2 hour conversation sitting next to one another..but I digress. Yes the Mrs. and I should know better...or is it that we do know...
I learned to live in Paris and love in Roma. Before Paris, there was no foie gras and Before Roma there was no expresso. Here is my Flight of Fancy over Paris .....with watches and a little walk down my favourite Place: Flight of Fancy to Paris Chopard Vi...
To have gone by helicopter over Paris must have been a great experience! But the shot that catch my attention is your last shot... How true, this is Paris! HAGWE Blomman
