Rest In Peace Sir George Daniels

Photobucket


truly a great watchmaker and someone who made most of the parts of his watches that could be made with his own hands. i wrote about him before here and i do suggest u visit that post and hear the interviews where he spoke about his passions and his views on horology. a man who made exceptional timepieces... a huge loss to the watch community

but his work lives on in the pieces he's made and the work he has inspired(many great independent watchmakers), his book which made every horology enthusiast believe for a brief moment that they too could become great watchmakers, his co-axial movement in the Omegas and in his fellow Isle of Man watchmaking talent, Mr Roger Smith. and those are good things indeed...

Sincere condolences to his family and loved ones...
