Patrick_y's original post delves into the fascinating phenomenon of how a watch collector's mind interprets everyday objects through a horological lens. His observation of a squash and its immediate association with a Glashütte Original Swan Neck Adjustment Regulator provides a relatable entry point into the unique way watch enthusiasts perceive the world. This article explores how fellow collectors share similar experiences, finding watch-related patterns and designs in unexpected places.
is well, obviously, noticing which timepieces people wear most of the time, paying attention to clocks and other time-telling devices in public and private spaces, always noticing horology advertisements when passing-by.... I guess time is a topic perpetually on my mind . Cheers, Filip
When the men in white coats find me, you must come visit me at the Watch Asylum!
There are Patek Philippe billboards in my neighborhood - more signs that the brand has become super mainstream. Yes, perpetually on my mind! Now I've got the song "Windmills of your Mind" in my mind, although now I'm thinking "perpetually on my mind" in the lyrics...
Now, you'll excuse me for this particular version of the song being my most favorite, for stupidly obvious reasons ........
Perfect! This is exactly what I was looking for. The instant I saw the photo I also thought about the Golden Ellipse!
Our manhole covers in USA are circular, so they never fall in! But they're far less interesting!
