Fascinating. Breguet was a genius & many of his minimalist designs must have inspired George Daniels .

Pity no spares for a Breguet being owned by Swatch !!!!

I must admit I was  little shocked that Swatch own Breguet, and that NP was 92, I listen to Just a minute all the time on Radio 4.

Old Hippy, the new BBC License law started on the 1st of October, not sure if thats a good or bad thing, I was also shocked to hear that you cannot view the iPlayer in the USA unless you by a BBC TV license.

The look on Nicholas Parsons face when he had the watch put in front of him was priceless. It was wonderful that it spontaneously started ticking for him as well. I think Kronos was about and decided the old guy deserved a treat.

Cheers,

I thought it was an excellent programme and passionately presented by NP. It is funny how a common interest and now I see NP in a totally different perspective.
