Cabinet de Curiosité ...

in general that is something I like, especially the Grünes Gewölbe (Green Vault) in Dresden (Germany).

The version from Thomas Erber is something I don´t get, to be honest. Who is Thomas Erber? Google is your friend and then I found the first related happening at Colette in Paris (2010). Lots of products from different sources ... one black watch from JLC ... white sneakers with fringes ... all so called (marketing) limited pieces and all for sale, of course. Is it art? Is it fashion? Is it ...? Is it a consumer product with some changes and a big premium when it comes to the price? ...?

The new GP fits into the style from what I have seen, nothing more nothing less. On the press picture it looks cold or is it cool?

If the watch is really special, I would like to see/get more details. So far it is just one more version ...

Cheers,
Oliver

LOL! Actually, Vlad, the moment I got this press packet and saw there was no verso shot I requested one from GP. Just waiting to see if we can get one. Cheers, Daos

GP should think about this kind of details when there is something special to see.
