Winter Nights

During a too-hot snap here in Santa Barbara, I was awaken from a fitful sleep to these fantastic images from Patrik of GoS -

 I know we're not even officially in Summer yet, but I am already dreaming of Winter Nights...

Yes, I'm lucky - I've seen and held some of Patrik and Johan's creations.  But I must say that these latest photos really do these amazing watches justice!
