Glad that your trusty CS is back from service, and functioning as if it had never missed a step.

I once dropped a friend’s CB on the first day that he took delivery of it, back in 2015. It didn’t take long for them to repair it (a screw had come loose off of the movement).
Very happy to hear that it’s chronometry is perfect. I always look for that in mechanical watches, regardless of how aesthetically pleasing they are.
So, congrats again.
Have a good weekend

FINALLY the Chronometre Souverain is back on my wrist as it has returned from service. A while back, I was was unfortunate at dropped the watch on the floor. I had changed straps but not made completely sure the pin was fastened properly. So here is a wor...

Not your best moment,I guess…😬 I was kicking my self for not being more careful but that’s hindsight in a nutshell… I agree completely on your words of precision. It was always a big deal to me. Wishing you a great weekend
I dropped my CB twice.

The second time was the day I got it back from service for the first drop. I admitted nothing the second time.

Knock on wood. Is your head wood? If it is then knock on it.
Whoops 😬l 😂 I can imagine it must have been.

Accidents happen. I once accompanied my mother to Wempe as she wanted to buy a Cartier. They offered her a glass of champagne which she immediately knocked over as she was so excited/ nervous. Unfortunately they have fabric on the counter top and the whol...
Yeah?

Christian, great write up on the Chrono Souverain. A wonderful piece! And thanks for the extra caution tip when swapping straps! ...
Ultra cool combo, Patrick

The illuminating orange works perfectly with the electric blue. Probably my favorite contrasting combination.
Haven't dropped mine yet

Agree with everything you say about its wonderfulness, though! I regard this as the most superb watch I've ever owned. ...
There is a first for everything 😉

I’m thinking it could be my exit watch. Most would probably pick a Rolex for that which I can understanding.
I undestand.

It would be VERY easy to picture myself wearing this watch every day, and that being that. Are there circumstances (hiking, skiing, swimming, working out) where I wouldn't wear it? Sure! But I'd probably be happier NOT wearing a watch in those circumstanc...

I’m with Alex in bucking the trend….

…I haven’t worn a Journe in two weeks. After some time in the countryside (or “upstate” as they like to say here) with only my “Padj” Seiko today I had my trusty sporty Journe back in the wrist whilst navigating the urban jungle. Glad to hear you have you...
That’s exactly how I feel.

I’ve been working in the garden all day but when I put it on for dinner it gave me that rush again. It’s love that remains even if it’s more than a decade since I bought it.
