Me [info about]
Born in a beautiful, history-rich and rough mountain region right at the heart of the old continent, I am middle age admirer of watches, fine engineering and ingenious inventions of which watch movements are a prime example. This page is highly personal and at the beginning of it was a simple attempt to keep record of watches I owned... lest I forget.
