Thanks, Mick . . . for not letting this Friday pass, without a "Watch You Wearing" thread.

I'm an idiot American tourist, so like all the other idiot American tourists, I bought a watch at the Geneva airport.

Mondaine, Stop2Go model, which replicates the clock in the train stations, with (a) the second hand stopping at 0 seconds, for a duration of 2 seconds, (b) the minute hand then jumping to the next minute, and (c) the second hand then continuing ahead, from the 2 second mark. This "stop for 2 seconds, then go" allows the use of a nationwide synchronization, to keep all the station clocks on exactly the same time. Here's the YouTube, for anyone interested -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cR-SFRpU3oY

On the trips to Switzerland, the train station (Neuchatel or La Chaux-de-Fonds) is typically the last local spot . . . so always a bit sentimental. And this Stop2Go model is the one for the watch / timing geeks!!

Thanks to this community for a spectacular week.

Jeff
