Horological Meandering

Unfortunately, all brands don\'t own an outdoor clock... at least in Geneva (JLC, PP, AP, RM, Cartier, Panerai...). Nevertheless, which one do you prefer (sorry for the bad quality of my shots)? Best wishes Alkiro ...  

It was very good of you to take photos of all the clocks and post them here. Something different and a nice change. My choice would be between the Breguet and the creative and colourful Gubelin clock. Thank you for the post!

Like you, I really love the Breguet and both Gubelin. I would add the Breitling and GO too ;-) Many thanks for your comments. Best wishes Alkiro

.....for me, my order went: 1) Breguet 2) UN 3) GO 4) Montblanc

I can see you know your way around in Geneva! I had not realized there were so many of these. My favourites are the Glashütte and Breguet, but of course the Gübelin is a crazy piece too! Best, HGL

Almost everyday, I walk rue du Rhône and I thought it was interesting to take shots of all these cool clocks. Ultimately, it wasn't so long to take shots of all of them (I don't know if I forgot one. That's the true question LOL). Best wishes Alkiro

I am often at the Eaux-Vives, but with a very small radius usually, I still don't know Geneva very well I must say. But its a gorgeous place for watch addicts for sure! Best, HGL

Top three 1. Breguet 2. J*D 3. G O Cheers D

The Breguet seems to be the winning clock. It's really cool for sure. Best wishes Alkiro

I am also partial to this one..... It does the job. Regards, MTF ...  

Best wishes Alkiro

and I am much in love with the one Breguet did. Thank you for sharing these pics, very interesting and I would never think that there were so many. GEO

Well, I hope I don't forget one (not sure of that). I just regret that several brands don't own one. The compilation would have been more interesting Best wishes Alkiro

Best wishes Alkiro

it would take weeks to cross in to all the stores and explore. Thank you for sharing Alkiro1. Best Regards Edward

Next challenge is to take indoor clocks. But, for this one, it should take one week as I'd be obliged to try so many watches each time Best wishes Alkiro

I think the Gubelins are hot stuff. GO is cool too.

It was not so long to take those shots as I'm very fast with my scooter (and because all of those clocks are concentrated in the same Geneva area) ;-) Best wishes Alkiro

Nice shots. I miss Geneve

Breguet for me. Aris

This famous house was founded in 1854 and owns several shops in the main Swiss cities. You can find several vintage watches under this name and few Patek Philippe have been sold with "Gübelin" written on their dial too. Best wishes Alkiro

Best wishes Alkiro

I like the first Gubelein the best.

Best wishes Alkiro

Also least useful, but I still appreciate the complexity and the thought that goes into it.

So wedded is IWC to the damn word "Automatic" that they reproduced it on a sign, not even a watch, that surely doesn't have an automatic movement. Great post, by the way. My favorite is the Breguet. A JLC reverso, with two different signs facing angled ri... 

You're right, the writing "automatic" on the IWC dial is a little bit "too much" A JLC clock Reverso is a true good idea. I hope JLC will hear you. Best wishes Alkiro

Breguet, with Droz as runner up but that's just because of my lov of the dial. Frank Muller would've done better to leave the crown off, they've tried to be clever and failed because a crown on both sides looks worse than no crowns

Regarding Franck Muller, if you carefully look at my shot you'll have the answer about the two crowns. That's just because two clocks are back-to-back ;-) Best wishes Alkiro

I know that, I saw the that it's two clocks back to back but it still gives the passerby the effect of a crown on both sides

Best wishes Alkiro

Of all, it is the Breguet that is my favourite. Need to take a picture of its Viennese brother, when I'm in town next

Yes definitely take a shot of its brother to see the one which has the better Tourbillon Best wishes Alkiro

In our watch addiction, "emotional" must always surpass "rational". Best wishes Alkiro

Best wishes Alkiro

I must say the Journe and Glashutte clocks are my favorites from your set! Thanks for the pics, cheers, Filip

First point for the Journe ;-) Best wishes Alkiro

And whoever etched graffiti on the Gobelin can die slow..

Yes, one of them at the front door of a man cave should be very cool ;-) Best wishes Alkiro

I recognize a lot of your clocks! Like the Breguet one is outside the store in Geneva. I like taking pictures of big clocks too and branded clocks too (especially the ones in airports), and thus I really enjoyed this post. Especially enjoyed recognizing s... 

Best wishes Alkiro

I only got 3 during my stay at Fairmont Montreu Palace. You have quite a nice collection there My favorite is that Breguet. Rgds Raymond No date! ...  

Did you see the ones into the Crissier restaurant kitchen when you were there? Best wishes Alkiro

Best wishes Alkiro

About the movements inside them. What powers them?

Best wishes Alkiro

Best wishes Alkiro

My vote of top two would be the Breguet and the GO.

Unfortunately, I think I took pictures of all of them. But do you have something special in mind? Best wishes Alkiro
