Hmm.. When I think about it, it's surprisingly often, that timepieces..

.. are connected to a story, or someone " near or dear" - what a nice topic !
- So let me look, which chips to take..
Well, it is a bit difficult to nail it down to just 1, so I took the liberty, to share a few,
a few of a quartet, connected to real friendship and nearness, and I' ll try for one
or two remarks for each or together.
The first one, no actually it is a pair which , although modern , is very. dear to me,
as connected to a friend ( who will know), in describing, in planting a seed, which I soon
decided to follow up to date: actually it is a pair of Tribute watches, modern JLCs,
which for me meant needing to go for a Double, a plunge, which I never had done before..
- and I am happy with my choice; additionally, it resembles some comraderie here, some group
spirit, that connects..
Why ? - Well, among other things, simply as I/ we had a lot of fun, picking up this Duo,
which we did as a small group, in a lovely city, the City of lights, Paris.
My beloved Mermaids of the Sea..TT DSA - EU & US
And then, not to forget, some timepieces for my dear wife, tolerating my
crazy passion in a benevolent way and being "low grade infected", meanwhile..
It was the finding of both a nice Reverso Classique ss/ YG, as my first
watch present to her many years ago, a piece she has been cherishing ever since.
My 'better half' still loves her first JLC Reverso Classique
Then, about 4 yrs ago, during a nice trip through several European Cities,
finding a nice JLC Vintage E159, from the 40ies, which we both love,
also as this Vintage classic reminds us of a wonderful journey together..
A special Vintage on a special wrist
Thinking about it, I suppose, at least one third to half of my watches are connected to
some special story, or/and somebody "near and dear".
Sorry, for rambling along, just felt to share some tidbits of the framework or
little background story.
My Best to all and HAGWE !
