with the wife. Looked at the blancpain, GP cat's eye, JD Le fleur, Nardin, AP millenary. Of all those, shortlisted the JD and the AP and then the Manager pulled out the Jaeger Master Twinkling Diamonds! Beautiful, unique, formal yet casual enough, in-house movement and from a established enough manufature worthy of leaving it in the care of my daughter when the time comes.
So the Twinkling diamonds leads the pack now but there's some time yet so let's see if something else comes up.
