Greubel Forsey Double Tourbillon 30° Technique, my sons new favorite watch.
He asked me to send him all the pictures I have from this watch. So far he was more keen on diver watches.
Am I infecting? ... Now it gets seriously dangerous ... At least he has good taste

Greubel Forsey Double Tourbillon 30° Technique, my sons new favorite watch.
He asked me to send him all the pictures I have from this watch. So far he was more keen on diver watches. Am I infecting? ... Now it gets seriously dangerous ... At least he has good taste...
His next birthday gift is going to cost you A LOT.
The Double Tourbillon 30 Historique & Technique are my fav. from the brand. I guess you could admire the amazing finish. Thanks for the pics Oliver, Cheers, Mark
Mark to "admire the amazing finish" ...
is a must and for sure with a serious loupe. So far I am safe, because the watch is far too big for him :-) Cheers, Oliver
Ouch, The bar being set that high early is dangerous...
Not much higher you can go from there. At least he has great taste! He will like it even more when he appreciates the finishing fully. If one can ever,
"dangerous ..."
Yes, it is and you haven´t even seen his taste in cars ... boats ... food ... Will he be able to appreciate the beauty of details? I have no doubts about this, but the financing part will be really tricky ... :-) Cheers, Oliver
Well, on one hand...
Maybe this will inspire him to become a great watchmaker and if he succeeds, you will get future great watches complimentary. on the other hand, you may have 6 figure cost gift expectations at major life events ahead! Either way, he has good taste!
"inspire him to become a great watchmaker"
That would be very nice and at least his only option, at least at the moment. Cheers, Oliver
The GF's are to die for , I just love them, especially the tourbillon
24 secondes in white gold gf01c, what a beauty, I'll keep dreaming! Cheers Steve
