Nope, Didn't See That One...
... but I had nice Italian at Primavera though. I'm not sure where I've had the best Italian of my life... that one might have to be a Top 10 List, if you know what I mean.
I guess I could never pick my favorite watch either. It keeps changing. For the past year or so it's been the Patek Nautilus with small seconds, moon phase, analog date and power reserve. But I can't buy it b/c my wife and I have an agreement... once I buy a Patek, that's my last watch. Period. The End. No mas. Fin.

One perpetual isn't enough, Devin . . .
. . . redundancy has it's merits . . . when my steel black dial Karree pereptual was under reconstruction at the manufactory, the steel grey dial Karree performed admirably in it's place. A backup perpetual can be useful in a pinch . . . cordially, Art
Let's Settle on "One Glashutte is Not Enough"
OK yeah, I agree with you Art. One of anything as fine and beautiful as any GO watch is never enough. When I wrote about "duplication" in a collection, I guess that was taken to mean "redundancy" and that's not what I meant. I should have written it more ...
I have but five G O's, Devin . . .
. . . but I'm always contemplating the next one ;-). Btw, I spent a year in Bahrain back in the mid 80's, and I have many fond memories of the people as well as the place. Is Ciccalis still there? Easily the best Italian restaurant I've ever had the pleas...
Your collection is a testament to the scope of variety . . .
. . . found in the genus of G O . . . three essentially dissimilar watches on the surface - a sports watch, a chronograph, and a perpetual calendar - all with a common ancestry, and sharing the same basic movement. It's really heartwarming to see so many ...
