Happy holidays everyone

Wishing everyone happy holidays and a great new year.

I'm lucky to share another year with my grandpa and his stories.

You're a lucky man, cherish the time. At my age my mother and father grandparents uncles and aunts are gone. It's just me now. But I have the memories.

Enjoy these moments, hold them close. Grandparents are extra special. I didn’t truly appreciate them until I was much older and now I realize how profound is the wisdom they had.

My grandparents are all gone, but my wife’s grandmother is still with us. 98 years young, and sharp as a tack even though her body is failing her.

Happy holidays to you, your family and especially to your grandfather

Your grandfather has great taste in watches and he wears it on the “correct” wrist too. ��

Thanks a lot for the comment. I will try my best to appreciate them the most I can during their golden years. Sometimes life goes by too fast and I miss priceless moments that won't come back.

My grandpa brags about running up the stairs two steps at a time. I am lucky to have young grandfathers. It's a weird realization to know that we are getting older :/

Dibs on the next Destro Patek.




A couple of extra shots I took on this trip with different lightnings, I hope they transmit the soul of the watch:
