Friends,

I'm not considering myself a follower of Independents nor have I been a great fan.

Last weekend though, we had the great opportunity to meet the horological brothers Groenefeld and admire some of their collection.

Before I get to the watch and my crown "problem", let me just say, those two guys are just super-cool and great fun to hang out with.

So coming to the Groenefeld Parallax Tourbillon. 




Love the look of the watch and the complication or rather "sophistication". And as I had the opportunity to play with it, I always try to set the time, wind it..just to feel the watch.



But then, that crown was really slippy and whatever I tried (no brute force of course), I could not pull it out. sad

So I asked Bart what's wrong here...and guess what, I had the laughs on my side.

It's a push-crown switching between winding and setting, no wonder I could not pull it biggrin
