Thanks for coming up with a great theme this week, Abel, connections are more important than ever right now ;-) Which watch to play with in this thread for me is quite a natural choice...

This rare handcraft Patek 5177G 'Boccadasse' is not only the big favorite of my collection, but is more meaningful than ever this summer that, for the first time ever, I couldn't return to Italy.
As you probably all know, the dial represents my favorite spot in my hometown of Genova, where I've been spending countless nights every summer of the past 20 years or so along with friends and a good cocktail. As I look forward to doing that again next year (in fact, for at least three weeks over the Christmas break!), looking at the many pictures of this watch and the memories they bring up is at least partial consolation ;-)
So here's a few random pics of this beauty and the location it represents
Have a great weekend Everyone!
It even found its way on my phone cover...
...and on the computer desktop...;-)
This is actually me in Boccadasse just recently (since the government doesn't let me in, my friends did via WhatsApp ;-)
And finally, let me close with the MOABS (the Mother Of All Boccadasse Shots;-) Cheers.
