TimeOut - what better title for some holiday pics!
Dear fellow Purists, my family and I spent a lovely two weeks holiday at the French atlantic coast. My new Omega SM 300 Diver (pre-current edition) also came with us . As I feel this watch really goes extremely well with sea and beach, I thought I might s...
Thanks for sharing your holiday with us!
Hello anaesdoc! Thanks for sharing the vacation pics! Seems like a nice day at the beach. Do they have jet skis, snorkeling, or sea kayaking there? -MW
(Body)Surfing, Kite-Surfing, one jet ski
Hi MW, they did not snorkel where we staid; I reckon the sea is too rough and the sight might be blurred or nothing interesting to see. I spotted a jet ski that obviously was used by the live savers who were watching the beach. What people mostly did ther...

Superb pics, anaesdoc!
Thanks a lot for sharing these beautiful pics ( and moments ) of Life and Happyness. AND YOU DIDN'T HAVE THE TIME TO MAKE A JUMP IN PARIS??? )) Best, my friend. Nicolas
Ever so kind of you, Nicolas
..., actually I really thought of you, when we passed Paris (no kidding), but with almost 1300 km to go that day and wife and 4 kids it would not have been any fun. You know, everybody would have wanted to see the Eiffel tower, the Champs-Elysee, the Louv...
Thanks for your understanding, Nicolas!
