Baume & Mercier Hampton Watches For 2011
I remember the good ol' days when watches were modern and design was fresh and enthusiastic. Boy, those where some crazy times. We sure have come a long way since then. Today things are better and we've learned our lesson. Don't try to improve upon watch design or create new things. No one wants to buy that. What people really want is old watches. Well, new old watches. Boy, I'll tell youwhat a refreshing sight today's new watches are. No distracting innovation, just good old fashioned"old fashioned."So it makes me incredibly proud to introduce you to Baume & Mercier's "new" Hampton watch collection.

Some of you old timers will remember beamon who was an early and active member of this and other forums. Roger and I shared interests beyond watches and over the years became good friends. A couple of years ago he and his wife moved from Tucson to South Carolina and we talked many times of finally meeting face-to-face. We communicated regularly via email and phone so last week when I realized that I had not heard from Roger in a while, I gave him a call. His wife answered and told me that Roger was not doing well and was under hospice care. So Saturday my wife and I drove up for the meeting we had talked about for so long. We also got to meet Roger's wife, daughter and son in law. Fortunately Roger was alert enough to participate in our conversations. It was a wonderful time together. Last evening I received a text from Roger's daughter that Roger had just died. He died as he lived, gracefully and peacefully.
