Nicolas (amanico) recounts an impromptu watch gathering in Paris, sharing candid photos of the city's iconic landmarks and the diverse timepieces present. His post captures the essence of community and friendship, using the watches as clues to identify the attendees. This article offers a glimpse into the vibrant social aspect of watch collecting.
A last minute meeting, as I love them. A virtual friend turning to a true friend, now, and an old real friend. I will not tell you who was there, I will let you guess with the watches I took in picture.
So, first of all, the place. Not far from where I live... L'Ile St Louis.
Poor Notre Dame...

Most probably my favorite place in Paris. And not just because I live near there.

The city hall of Paris, the big building in the background.

And our Brasserie!
Now the watches will help you to guess who was there:
Ok, that one is easy:

This one, now?

And well, I think that this one is a star, as well as its owner.
As for the plates, Cassoulet, veal liver, millefeuilles and tarte tatin. A bottle of good french red wine. Et voilà!
Best,
Nicolas
