In Chicago for a conference past few days.  Was cloudy and rainy at first, then cleared up, but I enjoyed it all.  Was busy with meetings/work, but did get to walk around a bit.  Kept my wrist companionship simple and light.

Watch by AHCI and independent haute horlogerie, Atelier Wen

Beautiful!

And brave of you to take this photo in Chicago (aka murder inc).

Thank you. It is a lively city for sure, but I didn’t / couldn’t venture out far because it was a work trip.

It certainly used to be.

I’ve been there dozens of times for work and the decline is steady. But hopefully it’s temporary. Hope you enjoyed your trip!

I agree that..

Taking a popular brand watch might be dangerous.

I wear my watches around Chicago all the time without fear. Don’t believe everything you hear on the news.

Like most big cities, there are bad neighborhoods, but during the day in most places (and certainly anywhere you’d want to go) it is completely safe.
