Some attique. Sigh…
Most of my school days were spent at a Catholic school. One of the priests at the school came from a wealthy family and he wore an Explorer. I always admired that watch longingly. Many years after those school days I ran into that by then very old priest. He still wore the Explorer which then had the bracelet quite stretched out and the watch lay almost on top of his hand. All I could think was to offer to buy it. Thankfully, better sense, respect and consideration, refrained me from a crass idea. I’ve never forgotten that Explorer.
Great piece, Nicolas, congratulations.

Another shot, a winter shot, this time. An incredible charm, this one. Can you imagine it is almost 70 years old??? Best, Nicolas ...
