Fellow Purists,

I have been an active member of this community since 2010. As many others I was a lurker here for a long time before I took the plunge and wrote my first post.

Since then I have never looked back in regret. On the contrary!

The more I learn about watches and the people here, the more I want to be a part of this great community and go deeper into the world of Horology!

Since the start I put up the Jaeger-LeCoultre sign (I think no one here who knows me have missed my passion for that brand).



What might be lesser known to others is my passion for many other brands. Some I have already shared with you here, such as Rolex, Omega, Lemania, Zenith, Tissot…



But now the time has come for me to put up a new sign, and to start a new chapter in my life as Purist and watch collector.

Girard Perregaux!



A brand I have been following with great interest many years now. A brand that not only show great knowledge and skills, but also have a very rich history! Two factors that is very important for me as a watch enthusiast and collector.

I hope you will follow me in my Girard Perregaux journey here and that it will be as fun and interesting as my previous 10 000 posts has been…

 

Sincerely,

Blomman
