Some little excursion.. on a nice summer weekend.. And often..

..at least for me, I ask myself, no - better, I also sometimes pretty quickly decide,
which tic-tac gets the nod
Lately, I've been wearing my other R's pretty much, ( when hot, I prefer bracelets)
but sort of have a bit escaped to pick my GMT1675 as a companion..


2 sugar candies: almonds & my GMT 1675


- This WE, we drove off into the countryside for a nice little summer excursion ,
first to a lake for some relaxing, reading and listening to live music there,
which comes from within a quite popular yearly small groups' festival..

- Lateron, if time permitted, some add'l nearby sightseeing was in our focus,
when we headed off..

Sorry for my sort of lengthy intro, should have been just framework, to give the
1675, Pepsi ( 1972) enough air and wrist- time and take her along....

For me, the flamboyant, happy colored appeal of the Pepsi dial, is a real summer &
leisure companion; I always tend to smile, when I take her along, for some fun stuff.
This also, as to me she is a typical Rolex no-nonsense, but a happy & exuberant choice..

Thus, hope you don't get bored to see my wrist, the blue/red summer watch
and some scenic pics on the way & around..

So, if you allow, just wanted to share some quick pics with you,
featuring the 1675..


A bit hidden but colorful



En route.. Summer clouds & red poppy seeds



Lakeside & a happy face with summer colors



Small musicians' groups performing



Renaissance castle with Baroque.elements



The GMT 1675 makes a very nice foreground



Threatening creature or just nice background



Let's keep the dragon in the dark & the 1675 in the sun



Next stop - a famous high baroque monastery in a chateau



Magnificent inner of the church with great paintings



Summer flowers in the big garden & side wing in the back



The statue makes a very nice messenger for the 1675


Hope you enjoyed the little encounters a bit
- we did...

Best, hs

.. never really thought about it.. - maybe also the color spectrum of the iPhone's lens plays a role, with another response to natural light ? - Are you having any idea ? A little food for thought.. Thx for kind looking, my friend ! Best, hs :)

The 1675 is the perfect comapnion for almost anything...

. . . but since you're posting this paean to the 1675, it's also appropriate here. Last week, while standing in line at the bank, I noticed what appeared to be a GMT on the wrist of an older gentleman standing a yard or so behind me. After making a few su... 

Indeed nice little story + pun.. Thx for kind looking.. Hope .. ;)

.. I didn't bore you too much with my humble, but happy WE - encounters with such a popular reference.. ;) - it's often the joyous colors of blue & red, which still make me smile, when I take her myself or see her on someones wrist.. Best, hs
