Beautiful virgin
Thank you kind sir, for sharing your experience.....what a nice temporary placement!
The quality of the finishing and photos were excellent, whilst the watch was a 'virgin'. Pity that the first touch by the owner will remove the 'prestine-ness'.

Now, I can see what excellent looks like.

Thanks for the memories. The place has not changed. I love it.
Looks busy. Vianney has aged. How is the Citroen XM doing? Has he restored the damned thing?
