Swiss GTG day 1 .
Jun 19, 2017,14:33 PM
Our next visit of the first day was to the legend himself , Mr Philippe Dufour .
After a warm welcom and some great story's about his past we looked at his old workshop thats looked like a step back in time
He also showed us a project he was working on .
As we all know he dosnt really take any more orders to make a new wristwatch again , he told us he has got a lot of requests but his answer is allways ,,maybe,, .
Let us hope he will make a few new ones in the near future so we can see more of his great craftsmanship .
I wish i could show you some more pictures but we have to do it with mr Philippe Dufour his own watch . The great Simplicity
After the visit Mr Dufour accompanied us for a great dinner with mr and ms Gauthier . ,,to bad i dont have a picture from that evening with mr Dufour on it,,

What an evening we had ! The food was so good but I must admit I was concentrating a lot on the conversation also being sitted next to Philippe D. and Romain G.! One of my most memorable horological dinners for sure . Thank you so much again Romain if you...
So cool post my friend. Memories forever

I can add few pictures about this very nice moment. The Master at the entry of his workshop What a bench!!! His lovely timepiece. Remember how much we were afraid to break it Even a statue of him!!! Such a lovely place to create marvels Best wishes Alkiro...

This is one of the great stops on the road of any modern watch lover! Mr D is a font of wisdom and has an incredible story. His watches are sublime!!
Thanks for this great capture ๐๐ป

And what an evening it was - a complete contrast between the watches of Romain Gauthier and Philippe Dufour but both being connected by a dedication to horology and to perfection. Truly a mind boggling trip!
