One day in March 2021, I was talking with my mother, we were talking about my grandfather, who passed away in 1996. We were talking about his life, his journey, his story... and I asked a very simple question: "Did he have a watch?" My mother then answered me: "Yes, a Swiss watch, a... wait... I don't remember well. It's in 2 words I think, and it ends with "utre" or "outre". What emotion was not that invaded me then! A few days later, I had the immense happiness and the intense emotion of winding up my grandfather's magnificent JLC. I lack the words to describe what I feel each time my eyes rest on its dial, and each time I wind it via the crown that my grandfather wound every day... It is a Classic model of 34mm in diameter, a little small for my wrist, but what does it matter; I wear it for me, in memory of it, and not to show it off or display it. Its dial is rather well preserved despite its age (dated around 1965).
