Claus it is not just to suggest some stupid conspiracy theory,you have misunderstood something,so have a few fools on this site.
It is against everything i believe in to judge people without facts on the table.I like John was speaking generally about the watch trade,in my first comment.You then asked me a direct question about yourself.I answered you as truthfully as i could.If you think i left something in the air that tainted you,this was not my intention.I do not know anything about you,and have never met you.
Many on this site find what you write to be interesting,and that is ok by me.That i personally do not find it interesting or in anyway enlightning is my choice.I just find that what you and guys like Kristian Hagen write is incredibly lacking in any critical content.
Patek are one of the greatest watch brands on the planet.And they make their living selling watches.They do nothing out of the goodness of their hearts.They cultivate guys like you,so that you buy their watches.It is really that simple!
What you or anyone else see on your PR visits to any watch factory means nothing when judging a brand or their watches.You only see what they want you to see.This is not a theory it is a fact of life.I have worked in places where i have seen how the reality is so much different than the dream presented to the public.
From what i have heard from other people,you and Kristian Hagen are very nice guys.I see absolutly no reason to doubt this,because i have heard this from people i respect.But at the same time without making it a personall attack,i have the right to disrespect what you write.It just seems to me,that you both are caught up in the PR watch circus.
This is just a difference of opinion between us.That a few empty guys without their own meanings,see fit to come with stupid comments is beyond me.That i find it boring to read stuff i can find in the official watch brochures spit out from countless brands,is just my opinion.Others may find it enlightning.We are all different,but some fools would like a world where we all agree.Let me end by saying that i think you are sincere,just like KH.
A little footnote.I bet we get more hits on this debate,than someone who wrote about their new watch.So you could also accuse me of selling watches.
Interest in watches means more sold watches.debate creates interest,so maybe i am working for the man who owns this site without disclosing the fact.
