Enjoying a cold one before viewing the watches. Peter brought a whole slew of his work including the Renaissance Tourbillon Repeater which sounded lovely and his new Serpant Calendar. Some Piece Uniques were also on display. There were one or 2 other inte...

Thanks for this perfume of charm, friendship and passion ! Even if I can't put a nameon all the faces I'm happy to see Pp fellows on these pics and how they live the event. Cheers, Mark

Hey -- I thought Horo crushed that watch of SJX's!

You should have been there. I thik with your interest in a 1912, looking at the One Hertz DS again in person would have been nice if not fueling the urge even more. Peter as usual was a great host and you should see some of his pieces. I think you;d like ... 

Would have loved to attend!

The good news for me is that a good friend of mine showed me his new One Hertz at lunch the other day (very nice indeed!) and that I've seen Peter's tourb repeater and Serpent -- but I'm guessing that I have not seen the other new PSM pieces to which you ... 

More please

The Gronefeld Gems

 
 By: ArthurSG : July 12th, 2012-07:06
Here are pictures of the Gronefeld One Hertz and the GTM-06 Tourbillon Minute Repeater in Gold... First up, The One Hertz shown mainly in Titanium.. "To adjust the time, instead of pulling out the crown, you depress it till the hand (see immediately pic b...

For me, the 1hz is one of the most beautiful watches of the last years. Fx

It has a very unassuming look

and probably appeals to those placing more emphasis on movement over aesthetics although at the end of the day, it still must appeal enough to the buyers' eye.

The back of that Gronefeld is very nice...

reminded me of a printed circuit board when I saw the chiaroscurro photo treatment of the movement. very nice. thanks for sharing!

It is indeed.

 
 By: ArthurSG : July 12th, 2012-20:17
I think quite a few were caught by the novelty (not in a fluffy manner) of the movement. And to be frank, I really think it is a very interesting movement.

Indeed that was the common thought of the many who attended that evening

Looks better in the metal than in the pics too :-)

Now where's the picture of you Arthur?

never around these things.... :-)

hey, these are real Gems!

 
 By: FanFrancisco : July 13th, 2012-08:30
... have seen 1 Hz before, but have not had chance to see GTM-06 TMR in metal, from what you described, it seems another master piece from Gronefeld boys! stefan

Great!

 By: ArthurSG : July 14th, 2012-07:34
