After a visit to his workshop during the legendary Purists Indie tour a few years ago i knew i had to add one of his amazing watches at some point in the near future . Well a few weeks ago it was time to collect a true icon and grail watch imho .

Congratulations on your successful mission to obtain one of these watches. For some reason this watch makes me want to ask you lots of questions about your decision process and the journey to obtain one. I think every time you have it on your wrist in public it will have this effect. Looking forward to seeing your future strap choices. Enjoy 🥂

I have a few reasons to add a watch like this , first of all i think this watch is a masterpiece . So beautiful to look at and once you have met Vianney Halter in person and you spend some time talking to him and see his workshop you know that this watch is made with pure passion and craftsmanship. For me its a honor to have a watch from him on my wrist.

I’m extremely jealous and not shy about admitting it. I’ve wanted a classic for several years and missed out a few times. I hope it brings great enjoyment. Looking forward to seeing more pictures.
