Horological Meandering

First thing tomorrow morning is fitting of shotgun in Holland & Holland Shooting Grounds. Later two hours of clay pigeon shooting followed by a watch related dinner. On Friday signing a contract of a shotgun order followed by a factory visit to James Purd...

and now I am focusing on full life. Apple serves me well at this stage and I will start wearing Patek again when feeling the passion again. Best, Kari

Now I want to live, I want to experience, I want to do things - preferably with other people. Looking at my left wrist does not give anymore the kicks I used to get. It's a very complicated story and I have analysed it through. I'll try to explain my thou... 

I will change. But I still get a small kick putting on some of my watches. But my highest kicks i get from my young kids. So my priorities nowadays will be my family

When I saw the amount of live and care, rare special version platinum watches started to feel very un-important. I thought: ”staring my own wrist... I must be nuts. It is so artificial, so unimportant.” Kari

I hope you will have a great time. I look forward to reading your thoughts (perhaps they can save me some money;-)) Best, Christian

Not with my health, but with my priorities and wear my Apple Watch as my primary watch. It let’s me leave the phone behind, is great for workouts and will annoy you with notifications only as much as you allow it to. Plus streaming music on the go and acc...

If you don't mind me asking, what are your thoughts on the FPJ and H&H collaboration?

I just ordered a Purdey shotgun and I have zero intentions getting a Panerai for Purdey watch. Some companies can make watches, totally different ones rifles and shotguns. Why to mix apples and oranges? Best, Kari

Enjoy your trip to the shooting grounds. Spectacular place. Also I hear that food there is pretty decent (well I supply them so bloody hope the food is great

and I did not like it. On the highway it was rolling like a crude oil tanker on stormy sea. Adding gun engravings to the door handles do not probably much improve the driving characteristics... I find this kind of co- branding a bit stu..d (=not for me). ... 

When I saw the video for the FPJ dial made out of H&H barrels (), I thought 'what a waste of a double-hammer rifle'.

Hope you have a great time

I think I can understand and relate to what your saying Hope you’ve recovered well

so that will be fun! I am addicted to the Apple Watch since version one and I love what it does. But I usually still wear a mechanical watches, and wear my Apple when I travel, in the gym and around the pool. An Apple Watch is a different world and a diff... 

I just don't like the charging of the watch. An automatic Apple would be cool! Best, Kari

Just one problem: during the summers days are long in my country and during winters very very short. Best, Kari
