Jazz Montreux
On my bucket list is life music at Montreux.
But did you heard Paolo Conte?
I want to see play him life at a concert.
Maybe if he give a concert in my country i buy a ticket.
Tour dates.
Nice Naim equipment you have.
I prefer Lenbrook. NAD,Dali.
I was at a demo of Primare ones. I like how that equipment let music sounds. 
I play not a lot. Sometimes. š
While watches may be a lot of member's
main hobby, what are some of your other passions besides watches? One of my favorite things I like to to for a bit of relaxation is to tie trout flies. I can time them small enough that 8-10 can fit on your thumb nail. Hand in hand with the fly tying is m...
I used to scuba dive - but not any more.
Today Iām quite passionate about Italian red wine and barbecuing various meats on my grill.
Played a lot of golf at one time...
In fact I was Henry Picard's last student. He brought Ben Hogan back after his automobile accident. Mr. Hogan dedicated his book, Power Golf, to Pic. Now I cook a lot and a "few" Italian Reds
Playing the 'cello; collecting and supervising restoration of violin-family instruments and bows.
The playing is self-explanatory. I really enjoy chamber music. The collecting goes along with collecting older watches: I like taking an object that is a "slice of history" and putting it in a condition to function as originally intended. Of course, I can...
My main other passion is music.
I try to be in as many classical music and jazz concerts as possible. Unfortunately with the current restrictions not a lot of opportunities so I listen at home whenever I have time. Now I definitely also have a sweet spot for good French,Italian and Span...

I heard Paolo Conte a few years ago.
Really great concert and a great musician. I am lucky to live in a place where very regularly we have the top classical and jazz acts pass by. Your stereo is equally good; I have chosen Naim because it is a good fit with the Magico loudspeakers.
Matching loudspeakers
And when all the peaces of the puzzle fits. I do not stop dreaming again of new audio equipment. Typical audiophile behavior. I heard for example Mcintosh with a pair of Sonus faber loudspeakers. Sounds good, but my ears are used to NAD. I listen music wi...
Even a great hifi system can never replace the magic of a live concert ...
That being said, I was able a few years ago to build a dedicated music room with extended acoustical treatment...and now comes pretty close to the real thing.
Great topic, I'm curious to learn more about the passions of our fellow forum members.
in terms of physical activities: Skiing/snowboarding, Scuba diving, Fencing, and 4 days a week in the gym. While on the non-physical side, I love reading, tasting and collecting Whisky. And I'm obsessed about MotoGP, though I'm forever banned from riding ...
Beside watches
I use my time a lot with music. I do play drums, and sing. i like to connect quality audio to get very good sound. A cheap stereo system is bad in my opinion. Compare to watches a Blancpain is a very good loudspeaker. I like to collect great vinyl records...
Poker!
A hobby that goes well with watches, since the poker table is the only place I see people wearing expensive pieces in the wild on a regular basis.
I've only once seen someone trying to pawn off their watches in a game, a very notorious player named Hashtag King
The game was televised, video of it below:
Besides watches my other hobby is Fitness.
Going to the gym at least 4 till 5 time a week .
Hi Nico, I have a nice collection (small) of Mont Blanc pens,
and problems, we all have a few of those at times.
Besides watches, I love everything related to health and fitness.
And lately I fancy politics ))
For me currently, hiking...
A few years ago i was pretty much into cars and bikes (ducati).... now really watches and hiking... i still have my motorbike outfit thougg, you never know... š ...
Had a big Hifi period in my life but the interest has faded a bit but I still enjoy using the system.
Built myself a 26 channel home cinema (told my wife it was for my kids to enjoy) and a separate system for the tv room all in one heavy rack. No a days my hobbies are : Family, work, watches in that order š ...
Even though I have a wine related ID, this is my first time posting about wine.
Besides my day job as a Consultant and researching watches, with a group of close friends, run a small wine club and wine import business (all allocation actually ended up with friends and family) š¤£ ...
