It will happen foreseeably....
I simply don't know an exact time-frame at this point in time. What I can easily tell you is that I will definitely spend two whole weeks in Europe as opposed to the 'pointless' 3 days which were only acceptable due to my love for JLC 
.... I have never been to Copenhagen, and the last time I was in Paris was 2005-ish - ouff! Cheers, Filip
New addition to the addiction today - Breguet 7027 blued pare-chute
There is nothing like the Anglican Capital spelled in French. It adds a lot of mystique to it,and almost smells like Paris. Céline’s unedited and obscure description of London’s vulgarity and brutality does help with the smell of early urbanism. ( PS I fe...
Thank you my friend.
Yes unexpected catch this one.I was always a little reluctant when it came to Breguet and their classicism. Not sure why; just couldn’t swallow. Nothing personal. This watch found me. Now I get it. Bre-guet it, so to speak. Pun rather daddy joke’ish, but ...
LOVE ....
the Bre-g(u)et joke - sincerely laughed aloud.... Sincere congratulations Jens, this one is a piece of the most sublime traditional horology. To me, it suits you exceptionally well! Much enjoyment with it, cheers, Filip
You are to kind my friend.
When is your next time in Europe? Why not Paris this time? Or Copenhagen? Or both as we often say in this community.

Ouuuff
Ouuuf 2005! Sacrilège! Yes that one is long overdue. I’m planning to go end May. Paris loves you even if you have left her for too long. Forgiving , rough, anarchistic and cool when it’s good.
What I mean is, an actual look at the past...
...modernized, sure. But with the unmistakeable DNA of the master. The fact that it shows the time is a bonus...
Oh yes. I was thinking exactly the same MDG!
Pare-chute prototype is from 1798. And he dropped a watch in a Parisian club in 1802 I think, as a bold proof for it’s efficiency and chock protection abilities on the fragile balance wheel. It’s right there! In blue. And the over-coil hair spring,which e...
Congrats! This watch is on my list and I think will only increase in value!
Great day for you congrats !
Maybe may-not-be , as my Sheik driver used to say when I lived in India.
He was driving for 10 hours in a row and chewed opium. He could dance in that crazy traffic. Never had a scratch. What are you wearing in Oregon today my friend?
Lol! A master of his craft your driver!
Today I am wearing my Bell & Ross 03-92. It is oddly enough one of my more comfortable watches ! Have a great weekend !
Amazing. Most people here preferred the monochrome WG
Oh that strap again! Nice with the high profile nubuk.
Fascinating!
I lovvvvve that Breguet, and, at least in my youth, I loved L-F Celine (though I understand his love did not extend towards my people, if you know what I mean).
I know exactly what you mean.
And racism is where the red line is for me too. In the end it is weather we, ourselves, have enough tolerance to thank him for his genius and forgive him his mistakes in mid-century Europe. I find it hard but I try. ...
The first generation auf the La Tradition is still the benchmark Tradition.
Congrats to this iconic watch.
Thank you dear Count.
It occurs to me on an hourly basis just HOW amazing this watch is. Had a dear friend “Epilogue” on WPS over for some watches and snacks this evening. He had the same. Completely drawn. ...
Thanks Count.
Nice GTG where we could dwell into some universal questions as well, since we were just the 2 of us.
Clearly, this is a mechanical watch!
I couldn't take my eyes away from it. Can you read with it on your wrist? Never tried Celine, but clearly it is a must read and I will do it one day! I love these NRF books, very pleasant to read! Best, E.
Thanks Eklektik-Yes I read the time easily.
But you tend to forget to read it😂 Not sure about Céline yet. I haven’t cracked the code. Challenging myself. Love these NRFs too. Just beautiful paper, words, good print and amazing font. No BS.
