Today's pic -- but, same watch as yesterday . . .

I can identify with that sentiment absolutely. Bankruptcy looms

Off topic "bug of the day". Just had coffee in the garden (wearing the MG of course) . . . . This is the "LV" version of course.

Saxon moodiness today. Atum Pure M White. 40mm s/s. Ref: MG-000703. MG Kaliber 201.1 manual wind.

At the risk of being OT -- in East Anglia we are having a good year: Peacock, Admiral, Painted Lady, Comma and Gatekeeper abound.

Zürich Braungold. 39.8 mm s/s. Nomos Epsilon automatic caliber. And, a brown-gold Painted Lady -- as we seem to be doing arthropods today . . . .

What could possibly be the harm in that? Great call.

"All purpose" pioneer again today . . . . .

Dress down? That we can do . . .

Only ever sold two watches, so, although I also have trouble remembering what I had for breakfast, I remember both occasions clearly.

Looked at GP quite extensively at William & Son last autumn. Thoroughly worthy, but failed to stir my soul. I thought the "signature" Laureato was too derivative of Royal Oak (which I don't like anyway), and, if you must have a date window, please make it one that "more mature" folk can see. However, as ever, à chacun son goût
