I do recall you picking up your snowflake recently and your reverso rouge all those years ago. I'm sure you have and will continue to enjoy them in the future.
Best

Actually most of my Watches were bought travelling, for the simple reason, because they were not available in my country. MY Tag Heuer Autavia (UAE LE), i bought in Dubai. It was issued in collaboration with Sediqqi and Sons, 150 Watches in Total. I love ...

Other than a bargain Omega Seamaster purchased in Lindau & that I no longer own, I have not purchased a keeper watch overseas (yet!), so thank you Abel for the option of memories from world travels: And the Indian Ocean And also just to dream ...
Gracias mi amigo!

Fond memories indeed. You are, as ever, most kind. Your Breguet and Geophysic are definitely my 'cup of tea' All the best, Giles
Thanks my friend!

We‘re still in the adaptation phase. Apparently it’s usual if you have kids that there’s someone sick all the time for the first six months after moving here - which makes life a real challenge for my wife 🙁 And then there are small things not functioning...

Great memories...

Used to travel to Schaffhausen all the time many years ago, albeit before the resurgence of Moser. Great shot!

When I was alerted to this uncommon 101.027x for sale in Tokyo by Ianny the Master Enabler, a flurry of emails ensued, and I booked the watch. By coincidence my family was due to travel to Tokyo 2 months later, so I opted to pick up the watch in person, r...

I had carefully researched a Tudor Grantour and planned out its purchase during a cruise to the U.S. Virgin Islands. We got to the AD, tried on a few Grantours, and settled on my watch. After that was the whole purchase ceremony, buying, sizing, warranty ...

I have never bought a watch on my travels, but I have traveled to buy a watch. The first time I saw one of these for real was on a GTG in Paris. I was smitten. When I saw this one I knew I had to get onto a plane to Milan, I spent a very pleasant afternoo...

Found this Breguet 3800 with Trititum dial at a dealer in Dubai, must have been sitting in a drawer or a safe for years. in perfect, virtually untouched condition. I already owned a 3820 Transatlantique from 2006 but having both side by side, I clearly pr...
Wow - fantastic!

Still, after some thought last night I found a watch that qualifies 😊 It’s my Doxa Searambler. While Doxa can more or less only be purchased online, at least the order for this one happened while I was traveling. It seems you have had many memorable acqui...

This is my favorite category, to the point where I’ve ‘almost’ made a promise to myself to only buy watches when I am traveling. There is so much more meaning and memories. I have several in my collection but here is one favorite : First, a Rolex 16610 (2...
