The Geneva Coast

Becoming a watch collector and aficionado can feel like learning a foreign language.
Sometimes figuratively, as when learning what the names of the various components of a movement are called. After that, trying to understand what each piece actually does is another job again and one that I would have to confess I haven’t finished. Or gotten very far with at all, if I’m honest with you. But still, the desire to learn counts for something, right?
And sometimes it literally is learning a foreign language, unless you’re a native francophone. Looking back at my last article, I used a couple of phrases to describe dials. “Flinqué”. “Clous de Paris”. Both describing different types of guilloché dial… Oh. There I go again. It seems we can’t get away from them. I passed all 3 terms through a couple of online dictionaries and translators, largely hoping to get something amusing back as much as a sensible result. No luck, all the tools just gave up instead.
