Things that make life beautiful
For me watches are like nice cars, like cigars, like cognac. Maybe you will think, what the hell do these things have in common. I will explain you. Those things are for me one of those objects which make life more beautiful!Can you imagine something better than driving a red
Alfa Romeo 2600 cabriolet on a sunny day?Can you imagine something better than smoking relaxed a Cuban cigar,
a Cohiba or Montecristo?Can you imagine something better than drinking and enjoying a Remy Martin with friends?I can’t. I can’t neither imagine something better than tinkering with my watches. I’m a watch enthusiast and I really love luxury watches,
especially U-boat watches. The problem is that unfortunately I’m not rich enough to afford such a watch. They’re too expensive, the same as the red cabriolet, the cigars and the special cognac. That’s the problem, that nice things are often expensive and nearly impossible to afford.
Many people can’t understand how products like this can be so extremely expensive. Referring to luxury watches it’s easy to explain. The watch manufacturer
Ulysse Nardin for example, takes several months to make a watch. Every component of these watches is added by an expert. Furthermore, every component is handmade and fabricated with an extreme precision. And the materials, which are often platinum, gold and stainless steal, are also precious. Watches are
little technological wonders.
I personally have
a Rolex Milgauss and I was told that it takes nearly a month to make this model. This watch was the first watch I bought six years ago and I’m very proud of it. Now I only need the Alfa Romeo, the cigar collection and the special Remy Martin and everything will be all right.
