Swiss GTG day 1

Jun 19, 2017,05:14 AM
 

Our first visit after we all arrived was Romain Gauthier .
I most admit that i didnt know that much about the brand .
i have seen some watches at Basel etc but once i have seen the workshop and talked to the man himself ( such a passion and knowledge he has got ) i was real impressed about him and his brand .



After a tour around his workshop it was time to see the watches

























We ended the day with a great dinner where mr Romain Gauthier suprised us with a special Bottle of wine








Now that i am back home i can only think of how i can add a RG to my collection in the near future smile

One of the top 5 independents. A fantastic mix of amazing finishing coupled with clever technology.

Before the visit this brand was not on my list, but both the visit and the man himself left me very impressed!

he seems to be a very nice person with good sense of humor. Your photos told me so.

He is a nice and warm person .

Also very talented , he only wants the best for his watches . He has got a state of art workshop . Very impressive .

Now that is my kind of GTG.

I had the please to meet and spend some time with Romain a few months ago. I was great to talk watches and learn so much about his operations. His firm makes spectacular time pieces.

You had an amazing experience but

hope next time you could get more detailed pics of machining components, finishing plates and brides etc. instead of wine...

Hope this would help you a bit .
