Well I got back the other week from my honeymoon in Switzerland.

WOW was that amazing!

I am impressed in the US when I see a couple watches over 50K in a display, there that was the norm.... Heck most stores had a couple 6 figure watches in the windows for you to see.

The dealers in Switzerland were some of the nicest people I have ever dealt with in my life! Very willing to just show you around and talk watches even if you told them you were just looking and not buying.

Went to a ZILLION watch stores, a couple museums.....

Anyway I picked up a very special, limited and unique piece while I was there.
Its a watch many wont know, others will say what were you thinking and some will say Oohhhhhh Ahhhhhh

BUT

I am leaving work now, due to a recent move we do not have internet access at the house yet so you will all have to wait till tomorrow for me to post some pics of it HAHAHHAA These should have been up 2 weeks ago but I had trouble getting online other than my IPhone while there so you all have to wait another day HAHA

PS No it is not a Swatch, I did purchase a VERY cool one while there but thats not what this post is about :)

Sounds like a GREAT trip! I'm going to Geneva/Zurich/Schauffhassen soon and have tours scheduled for a few of the factories! Which museums did you visit? What watches did you handle? Where did you stay?

I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS!

BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY!

Which watch did you buy, and where are the pictures?

I'm waiting patiently...

UGGG having trouble getting the pics posted.

Seems I took them at too high res and I am having trouble sizing them down.

One more try....

OK

The MIH watch...

Simple and complicated all at once.

I have wanted one for some time and a trip to Switzerland for my honeymoon was the perfect excuse. Now I will always have this to remember our trip

If you do not know about it look it up, very unique piece made in limited #s only available in Switzerland.
