This watch is just as crazy as my journey to it.
A long journey also with recurring doubts.
And also with "hard" decisions (two watches had to make way).
All this only makes the connection to this gem more intense. I can't even imagine not having this watch in my collection.
Cordially
Thomas

Dear Friends, I did it today!!
By: MTR : June 16th, 2023-16:39
This watch has really been haunting me for a long time. It has always been a dream of mine to own a Girard-Perregaux Tourbillon with three flying bridges. And when I was allowed to admire a first picture/design/draft of the Bucherer Blue model in La Chaux...

I can easily see the worth in this fantastic GP, unlike some other very expensive watches. Sincere congratulations, wear it with tremendous joy, and thank you for the quality images!! Cheers, Filip
Thank you so much, dear Filip!
By: MTR : June 16th, 2023-17:22
Yes, that's for sure. Many significantly more expensive watches are out there. I can't always understand, according to which criteria the standards are set here? The topic of value retention is also not insignificant. But that only plays a secondary role ...
Thank you, dear Ted!

Looks incredible
By: TeutonicCarFan : June 16th, 2023-21:43
Very happy for you. On the press photo I didn't like the electric blue bridges, but in this more muted blue it is spot on. Looks great on that strap too. Bravo!
Thank you very much, TCF!
By: MTR : June 17th, 2023-19:49
In fact, the blue of the bridges is much more beautiful in person than in the press photos. The right mix of that certain something and timelessnessโฆ Cheers Thomas ...
Big move and congrats to your choice
