Dr.George Daniels, very sad news...

Post by Kieron » Fri Oct 21, 2011 7:55 pm

I read today with great sadness that Dr.George Daniels, inventor of the co-axial escapement, has passed away. Unfortunately, I didn't get the pleasure of meeting the man himself but I have handled one of his hand-made watches, which was a joy in itself...

RIP Dr.Daniels and condolences to his family and friends...
This post is worth every penny you paid for it... :whistle:
