I think those pastries were just an incentive, Allan. Buy one watch, pick up 2 pastries FREE!!

Yes, those melt in the mouth.

Of course I do, but what?



It looks unpolished.

Nice pictures, Jocke.

It's a good thing you didn't use the flash for that Daytona shot.

Great shots. I used to travel to Stockholm regularly on business and never once visited an AD as I wasn't into watches then. Makes me cross for the mised opportunity as I no longer go! But my bank balance would have been in terrible shape now so just as well. Thanks for sharing your time and pics.

Thanks for sharing. I´m always a bit nervous about taking pictures of shopping windows. I was once stopped by security guards in London when I was taking pictures of Rolex watches.
