Jocke, these are fantastic photos, mate! I look forward to when I can get some time to travel to the Basel fair. I will make it one year. Great pics of the Glashuette watches. I especially love the Meissen...

Thank you all for the kind words.

wow Jocke, thanks for sharing!
so that's how rolex plans on increasing market share: make a bigger dj and then tell every guy that the one they've been wearing for years has suddenly become a woman's watch. what a joke:) would have loved to see that guy smash the go on the table - a new mechanical g-shock - very cool. |
