Icon6 Mission "007 Berlin" accomplished

I am now back from Berlin and I have taken some nice "spy" photos for you.

First some atmosphere photos:




Now some watches:






Some VERY expensive bezels:



Some more watches:






There were also second hand watches:






Unfortunately, I parked a wrong place, and my car was towed away :



So I had to drive home in this one :

Yes, in Euros. The price of the BNIB LV (2nd hand shop) is in fact not so bad at all.

I think if I had to grab just one it would be the Blue TT Sub...It stands out in a classy way.

Nice work, Agent Bo.
Most everyone's thinking it, so I'll go ahead and ask. Any SS Daytona's?

Excellent work.... When I was in Italy a few weeks back i captured a shot of a Leopard Daytona in Capri, I would have posted it but I know the responses would have been offending

I have many books about Rolls-Royce motorcars, and even two Rolls-Royce mascots.

And I found THIS large bronze mascot in an antique shop. I simply had to buy it!



The picture on my wall is a photo taken from the Rolls-Royce AD in Conduit St., London (the AD is no more there, unfortunately ).

BTW: In the second hand Rolex shop, I also spotted a very nice YG Day-Date with the lovely "Bark" finish. If you look at the 4th. last photo, you can just see the edge of the bracelet of it (to the right of the TT Dajejust with diamonds on the dial).

Unfortunately, for some odd reason, I chose not to include the Day-Date in the photos , but I believe it was around 9,000 Euros. Not bad at all!

Yes, the trip was perfect. I went there with my mother and we had a very nice time there, discovering the fascinating city of Berlin. We went shopping on Kurfürstendamm and in KaDeWe, Friedrichsstraße. Went on a seightseeing tour to view other parts of Berlin, for example Checkpoint Charlie (where there is a rest of the "Wall"), saw the still rundown part of former DDR, Brandenburger Tor, Gedächtniskirche etc., etc.

All people were extremely kind and helpful and we could smoke in every bar and restaurant we went to.

My mother does not want any foto of her posted her, so I will respect that, but here is one of me, sitting at a restaurant, and one of Gedächtniskirche (note how badly bombed it was during WW II).
