Another pocket watch
Hi Bruno,
Thanks for asking this question of us. As with many others who have posted, my most important watch was the one passed down within the family and the one that started my interest in horology.
It was my originally my Great Grandfathers and is a rather well used chronograph with no particularly important lineage, apart from the family one. The case is hallmarked 1883 Birmingham and it is still a source of happy memories and pleasure for me.

Aaah, Respo
Let's say that we were some to discuss a lot with JLC for a re edition of THE Polaris... And JLC said OK.... So, now I consider it a bit like my Baby! BTW, this is not the Platinum Polaris, but the Boutique Edition, only available at the Paris boutique......
The one that I sold -
My grandfather left me a Patek and Movado Moon Phase. The Patek was a gift to him from my grandmother on their honeymoon to Europe in the early 1930's. When I received it (early 1980's) I was in my late teens and heading to college. Being from a family th...
