Definitely a watch which gets a lot of wrist time. 






And still on my wrist, as I type these words. 

A strong love affair, for sure. 

Best,

Nicolas

I had this one on my wrist a few years ago and unfortunately didn’t pull the trigger. That was also about $3k ago for this reference :/ Enjoy yours!

I give the credit to all our friends who were so kind to participate and helped for financing this project of buying again that watch that had been stolen from you and offer it to you with friendship, passion, and love
