Day after... visit of a friend

The next day... with still a heavy, heavy head. A good friend visited me and my family. He was also at the event. So we could enjoy the lazy afternoon sun and the watches more in detail.

HTE meeting Maastricht (evening)

Well the evening wasn't about watches. But about passion, goals and reaching the peaks of life and the world. Philipp had Peter Hillary and Jamling Tenzing in Maastricht. To give a lecture about their achivements and their fathers concquest of Everest.

Old and new...

I guess you understand which i think looks 10x better.
Percy from R-L-X was one of the first to post images of the new Explorer 2. The new orange hand.
Well what to say. From this picture it looks like...

HTE meeting Maastricht (daytime)

The HTE event in Maastricht was a blast. For me personally. But also as event itself...

Shoot for Christies....

Last week i had a little shoot for Philipp's project. Images for the Christies auction in May. Great fun to do. ANd first time i used the software to shoot my Nikon D3 directly from the Macbook. Which gives you a great image of the result right away.

A trip needed...

Last weekend i was away with my wife. For a short trip. Just the 2 of us. Well needed after a lot of work and little time together. A friend adviced me this new hotel. In Bonn, Germany. It was fantastic!

Superlative APP

My friend Auro just made a great APP. His 100 Superlative Rolex Wateches book  is already fantastic. Gave me some great grail-sniffing times at home. Now i have those babies with me all the time...

Sunburst

And as you might have guessed it.... 1 guitar was not enough ;-) Needed something matching....

Pepsi....

I picked up an old love of mine. 20 years ago i played for about 1 year. But quit then.. always felt sorry about it.
So i picked up on it again. Now with a private teacher. To do it right and keep rocking this time.
But what makes it also so great. I see so much of the same passion in both world.
Both find their design in the 50th.. and still hold their magic till today.
