which is heart-warming and flattering for me. Being 'elected' to be part of the Purists team is a great honour for me, and for some time I hesitate to make this step. But thanks to the impressive support I sensed from the forumners and also thanks to the ...

Dear Sir, Thank you for your prompt answer. I own myself more than one wristwatch and this for the last thirty years. None of them had their winding crown falling off. Mr Journe should not hide behind his team, but take his responsibility and take a look ...
