So two guys go into a restaurant...
Yes, it's been a while, but I do need to work for a living to afford watches!
One of the members of our NorCal Gang took delivery this week of the Journe Anniversary Tourbillon, otherwise known as the T30. To celebrate, two of us met up for a Journe-themed luncheon, and with the usual disclaimers about restaurant lighting, here are a few images I thought you might enjoy. Serial numbers obscured at owner's request.

Looks like a power lunch to me!
Impressive collection for both of you. Nice to see you take time out of your busy work schedule for a bit of watch enjoyment :)
Thanks!
Most of the "power" was supplied by my good friend and his outstanding collection, but it was delightful to see him and share watches. Thanks for your note! Best, Gary
Two tourbs, two Resonances, and a Vaga...
...pretty good, I have to admit! Thanks for your note -- always great to hear from you. Best, Gary
Very fortunate indeed
I have no delusions about how lucky I really am to have access to these great pieces and of course the wonderful friendships I've formed through this great hobby! Best, Gary
It can be a challenge...
...to keep the food away from the watches, and to remember to eat the food! Best, Gary
Congratz to your friend
This is a very nice Journe. I love especially the dial, the thin markings and hands, nice ivory dial color etc ... Thanks for sharing your pictures Gary. Cheers, Mark
Very different for a Journe
Not the relatively crowded and ornate dials (which I love, by the way) we have come to know from Journe -- but obviously directly related to the pocket watch that started it all for Mr. Journe. It's a beauty in person -- and I will be very interested to s...
Thank you Gary for the pictures, the T30 is just.....
beautiful, what a charming watch, and the tourbillon in the back under a hinged cover, that's class! Cheers Francois from Down Under
Not only a very different look
...but a very attractive one, in my view. That elemental look to the movement is really striking to see in person -- and it is neat to have that closed case back swing open to reveal it. Thanks for your note! Best, Gary
great Journes all around
and it must have been fun to compare your new acquisition with the other watches. The strap on the Anniversary Tourbillon is also a nice touch! Thanks for showing best Andreas
My pleasure, Andreas
Fun for me to see these pieces together -- and great to have as much time as I wanted with each watch as there were only two of us :-) Best, Gary
It's evident that I have been too lazy at work then......
Great piece of Journe!! Best, Horo
I am sure that you have been called many things, Horo...
...but lazy must not be among them! You get more done in less time (and I know that you also invest the extra hours and late nights) than just about anyone I know. Looking forward to your next incoming(s) and shots of existing pieces! Best, Gary
