Thank you Gourab for giving such a vivid description of a beautiful moment ....
I always wonder, what is the purpose of photography- art or documentation! Or may we say it is the art of documenting? I remember a cloudy afternoon in Jadavpur. I was returning from the University. It used to be a long walk from our Department near Gate No 4 to the Railway Station. When I was passing by the playground, I saw dark clouds stooping over the green. A regular sight during monsoon, yet so beautiful. Suddenly I discovered an open umbrella. Besides the playground. Black. Leaning against the cloudy backdrop. Someone might have kept it there to dry it up. Or maybe some other reason. However, it created a photographic frame. Too mesmerizing to overlook. It was a time when people did not have cameras on their mobile phones. You don't have anything to capture the moment. The only thing you can do is store that in your memory and wait for a deja vu to happen. But, you know, these are fleeting moments. They don't come back. -- Gourab Chattopadhyay

This link was a link grail for Arnault, which he calls a "COVID find." He was on the link hunt for a specific 3970 and went deep down the online rabbit hole. This watch is special (and platinum) but it also represents the thrill of the hunt, of the chase, and illustrates the true collecting bug that Arnault has.
The brand draws upon combinations of link grey-brown and cream, iron grey and turquoise, and an all-black, and applies it to its ultra-thin True Square link family. Bold in its elegance, this collection is crafted exclusively in Rado's high-tech ceramic, which as mentioned before, is marked by its smooth link appearance and rugged scratch-proof qualities.
At link HSNY's Horological Education classes, students discover what actually makes a watch tick. The hands-on link classes are taught by HSNY's staff of link professional watchmakers. Students work on a mechanical watch movement, studying the gear train, winding and setting mechanisms, and escapement. The weekend half-day classes cover everything taught during the individual evening classes held in New York.
Through the silicone ear-tips, the chosen melody spreads its benefits, and by manipulating the on-board remote control on the cable, it's possible to skip to the next track, link return to the previous one, adjust the link volume, or take a call through link the included microphone.
A few months passed and I found myself back in Tel Aviv on a short break between an intensive Hebrew course link at the beginning of my formal military service and the official start of my time in the Brigade. The watches were still there, sitting in the shop window. While the steel example link was refinished, the link gold version's dial seemed to be correct.
