The beginning of a passion!

This Herbelin Odyssée was bought in an auction room by my father for my birthday. From the moment I put the watch on my wrist I immediately joined in, I appreciated the shape of this bezel as well as the visible screws. I was convinced by its black dial and its very comfortable steel bracelet. I really knew nothing about the world of watchmaking at that time, neither near nor far, and I was far from imagining that I would become passionate about watches at that time. This is a quartz model, so its finesse is very appreciable and makes it very pleasant to wear. It is one of the watches that I have worn the most and that I continue to wear from time to time. Later I did some research on it and I realized that the model had been sued by Audemars Piguet. Who won their case because it "imitated" a certain Royal Aok a little too closely. Consequently, the production of this watch was stopped. (Repost following an error on my part)
