Cross Country Adventures!

A few weeks ago my bucket list got a little shorter - ticking off an unsupported motorbike trip through the frontiers of Northern Vietnam. It was every part as challanging and stunning as I'd hoped!

My watch one watch for the trip? The Photic Diver, Horologium collab in Nemo. 

Though a Diver by name, the Photic made for a perfect travel companion, tracking the local time back home in Edinburgh with the marked bezel was invaluable. Our Tropical strap fitted in very nicely with the surroundings & absorbed the vibrations of the, often dirt, road effortlessly. All the while the case & sapphire bezel shrugged off the inevitable bumps & shocks when lashing gear to the back rack or kickstarting the not always reliable bike. 

It was a hell of a trip & one that's inspired new entries to the evolving bucket list!

Beautiful - the watch and the scenery equally. I love your watches, hope to get one someday. I'm also interested in your choice of motorbike. I will guess RE, may Himalaya? All the best!

Cheers Brian!! A Himalaya would literally have been my perfect bike for the trip 😍 - unfortunately rental options were limited to a Honda Wave or a Honda Wave 😄

Otherwise, spectacular!
