I thought about doing it by brand but chose to group them together so everyone could enjoy all the photos...
The De Bethune worldtimer is actually one of their most complicated movements. You can see and read about it on their site.
As for videos Yohann, I can send a few of them to you directly on WhatsApp as I cannot load them on the site 👍
Independents at Geneva Watch Days, my time there and what was seen (BE WARNED, enough photos to melt your face 😂🤣)...
I started a thread a few days ago asking if anyone was going or had any questions regarding the Independents showing at Geneva. I published the agenda I had in regards to seeing and speaking with several while there. You can see the list in the other thre...
Not sure yet but will try for next week if I can. Paris is a code red so my wife is not too happy about that either 🤷♂️🤦♂️
Trying to minimize travel as much as possible but still want to live life 🤷♂️
Thank you for this...
...the FB watches are sublime. I give them a pass on thickness because of the type of movement and the astonishing level of finishing. Not usually Moser guy but I kind of like the first one with the engraved bezel...the size looks perfect and the 'old sch...
Actually the Ferdinand Berthoud watches were not as thick as you would think, especially on the wrist...
I wore my Lange Pour Le Merite especially to see the difference and yes the Lange was thinner in profile but it is also smaller in diameter so the ratio of case diameter to thickness was pretty close 😉
I think one just has to have the wrist to pull if off...
...at 7.25" I think I could. Yes, ratios are important. Now there's just the small matter of settling the bill : )
My wrist is around 6.5 - 6.6" and I could pull it off even though it looks large. So yours at 7.25" is more than adequate...
now regarding the bill, well there I cannot help you unless I was looking for wife #2 🤣😂
P.S.
...in the days before high-speed internet, this would have been described as a modem-burner : )
I passed out with the excitement after the first dozen photos 😮...
Unfortunately the dreaded Covid stopped me going. Thanks for sharing this epic with us !
Great photos, I wanted to look at more,
but my eyes started to melt and run down my cheeks.
thanks a lot for the pictureS
I think, you sould have done different posts by brands. Purists may have a lot to say about your stunning reportage. I like the Debethune word time. How does it work? Where did you upload the video of the MB&F?

Let's just say, orders were placed and future projects well noted dear doctor 😉
Sadly, I cannot even show you all some of the uber cool stuff 🤷♂️
Unlimited uniqueness
This is a lot to understand and study but for now it is a feast for my eyes and my imaginations Thanks a bunch for you generous time, post and photos.
Thank you so much for this amazing and impressive post .
Indies are my passion and i wish i was able to attend this event (unfortunately i just came back from Spain and had to do a quarantine for 10 days first so impossible to be there ) but this great post and pics gave me the idea i was there for a moment 🤗. ...
Sad to hear about your quarantine but I fear it is happening everywhere. When I was in Geneva I saw that Switzerland had a list of around 60 countries that would require a quarantine...
when returning back to Switzerland and one of them was Monaco which has one of the lowest death rates as well as infected. Makes zero sense as France was not on the list 🤷♂️🤦♂️
Captivating
Thank you for taking the time to sort and post all of these amazing photos. The independent brands need to be seen and handled to be properly appreciated, and your photos have conveyed their allure very well! The urwerk pieces under embargo have me very i...
Totally agree about seeing and handling the Indies. Good eye regarding the Five Fingers 😉. Have worn them exclusively for over 5 years now...
and you can simply wear a Moser Streamliner, Endeavor, De Bethune Diver, etc...during a jog and change back to a Bovet once done 😉
Huge thanks for this incredible work my friend
Many gorgeous pieces you could see and touch, you must have spent an amazing time, what an experience ! Huge thanks for sharing all this with us 👍👌🙏🙏
Terrific photos, it must have been great to see so many incredible pieces!
Any impressions on the new Berthoud compared to the older models? Those MB&F clocks look so cool, very intrigued about the Chopard crystal minute repeater as well!
The new model wore very much like a contemporary watch so much easier for the masses than the octogonale shape of the previous models...
if you look at my wristshots, you can get an idea how they wear. If I were to get one, I would probably lean towards a white gold with black enamel dial since the black dial would also make the watch look a tiny bit smaller. My wrist is around 16.5cm + or...
