Super cool watch! Looks great - imo a slightly more wearable colourway than ‘….Afternoon’.
This is exactly how British (or other nation’s) brands can ‘compete’ with the bigger Swiss brands; on design and niche
Its not made for me so I don’t want/wear/buy one. It does affect me in that, it’ll mean there is a mechanical watch industry in (my lifetime) at least so I don’t hate/dislike it. In the same way those ‘cheap’ plastic quartz Swatches kept the industry going by making people who weren’t interested in mechanical watches buy a mechanical watch in later - by virtue of the fact that they were ‘used’ to having a device on their wrist. Apple didn’t set about making a watch to pi55 me off (pretty sure of that!).
Just because I’m not the ‘target consumer’ doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate it’s importance in the grander scheme of things. IMO no other current watch manufacturer has done more for the future of mechanical watch sales than Apple and they should Thank them for it. Of course, this is all just a prediction of future events, so it’s all conjecture on my part
I like expresso-based drinks with steamed milk. Have a manual grinder for the beans (Divine Coffee Roasters). Currently drinking a Ugandan medium roast.
It takes a while to make, so may experiment with a pour over method in the future.
If I’m out in London, then I try to visit Prufrock in Hatton Garden. They do great coffee in a part of town that’s a little quieter
Thank You - very nice of you to say so.
We all furrow our own paths and we all have style, in our own unique ways
