Love that shot. There was another not long ago of an Explorer pointing at Everest. Boy, I've got to get out of the house more often.

The mountain looks nice and so does the watch. What I'm most impressed with though is the the observatory on roof. I bet he has a 100k Telescope housed in there.

Thanks everyone! It was a spectacular day (on my birthday) during the 'in-between' season so we had the place to ourselves, except for a couple of professional photographers (which tells you it was an exceptionally clear day).
As for 'size,' Matterhorn looks 'normal' amongst the other 4k's at the Gornergrat (where the pic was taken). But in the village of Zermatt, it looks huge, towering over the Mattertal (Matter valley).
