Horological Meandering

Winter is coming

 

After Game of Thrones, the phrase will never again recapture its neutral, purely informational meaning, I guess But since it is the snowy season, here a couple of shots from a country where it is not exactly out of the ordinary. The last couple of years were practically snow free in Vienna but luckily this year started off with a bang, with the first snow being deposited promptly on January 1st. So far the last great hurrah has been Saturday, with quite some snow falling in a short period of time, sadly the rain has washed it all away by now



The first iteration - this time accompanied by the Chopard LUC Chrono One.

The inbetween - a trip to the zoo. Snowflakes on the ground, rather than the dial of the Grand Seiko SBGH035

The first addition of the year, a Seiko 5 being trialled in cold weather conditions - just before it started snowing in earnest. Test successfully passed

Last but not least, the Grand Seiko SBGX097, with the green dial seemingly calling for spring - as demonstrated by the thaw on our terrace.

Hope the ones of you, who are still beset by snow storms are all warm and safe - as evidenced here, winter comes and most definitely goes, too

Have a nice week!
