So the Risti Connect roller coaster keeps hurtling along and this issue we say bonjour to Mr 47mm aka J-F!!

So weve taken you from London with Guy, to NYC with Eng, crossed over to Italy with Loris, jetted to Canada for Nad and now we cruise over to France with J-F - hope you enjoy.

Wherever next?? Well, keep guessing people, until then - One love!

Yes, being a risti is a "mind opener", to so many cultures and ways, how true.... Well said J-F!!!

No precious metals either? 379, 376, 373????

Just kidding, what a collection!!!! 47s are amazing and really, 44s seem small at times. Boggles the mind imagining having that selection of watches to choose from every day!

Awesome passion from cool, French collector! Give the man his 267!!!!

Great stuff Gush and JF!!!

This should be a nice addition to the Archives. Especially for the newbie who asks himself:
"WHO IS THIS GUY - Who is responding to my post in a way that has me scratching my head???

Ha ha ha
