Keeping up high quality threads.

Maybe it is your name that brings such an interesting post.
Chapeau.
I have an enormous respect for watch making from the Swiss Canton of the Jura, so it is amazing what Quebec making loose.
Superb to know RM is a pure Swiss Canton of Jura based brand, giving me the problem i can not buy a RM because it is far beyond my reach. Lucky RM is not the only Swiss watch brand that produce watches in the Canton.
Next and most important for me, i am an enthusiast of Geneva (Vaud) based watch maisons. For me there the creme de la creme comes from.
Other enthusiasts here are big fans of Vallee de Joux based watch maisons like Audemars Piguet, Jaeger LeCoultre, and RG. These highly beloved maisons can count on one of the most recognized movements wonders ever.

But my weak spot will always be every watch from Geneva.

And welcome to Quebec! That's one amazing clock! I haven't been to Quebec in quite some time, the next time I visit, I'll definitely have to make a special stop to see this clock! Have you seen the nominations for the GPHG clock category?

it's a society that gives out awards for various watches and now clocks (new for 2022). It's kind of the Oscars Awards for the watch industry! Click here to see this year's finalists:

Their rules say it should have been new in the past year. The clock was installed in 2014. It should definitely win an award for something from this society.

And only recently did the GPHG start recognizing clocks!

Here's a link to an article I wrote about the man who helped push the GPHG to make a new category for clocks! www.watchprosite.com /
