Trashy Pictures

Back in Virginia, I could leave a rotting horse carcus out next to the trash, and the trash guys would come and haul it away.  Not so, here.  We have three big cans, one for trash, one for yard cuttings, and one for recycling.  If it isn’t in one of those three cans, it doesn’t go anywhere.


Of course I found that out after the fact, so I loaded up all the excess boxes and junk from moving, and went searching for a dump.


First of all, they don’t call it a dump.  It’s a landfill.  And its enormous.  I had to drive 30 minutes away, then up a mountain.  They gave me an orange safety vest, took down information about what I was dumping, and off I went back down the mountain.


I got to drive right up to the ocean of filth, wade into it up to my ankles, and throw my junk in.  And I thought the neighborhood cows smelled bad.  Those grass-fed stink factories were nothing compared to the landfill.  What an incredible new smell I discovered!

Anyway, it made our dump look like someone’s back yard.  Don’t know if that’s a good thing or not.

In this latest incarnation, Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel's favorite blossom is depicted on a sculpted golden charm that dangles from the watch's crown. A single brilliant-cut diamond sits at the link center of the bloom on the black-dial version, while the jeweled version fittingly puts on the Ritz, with a pavé diamond link dial and glittering charm suited for a black-tie soiree. (Remember those?) To complete the look, there's even link a matching open ring with a charm.

GM: We've known each other link for 20 years. We tend to like link very similar things. But we are also, link I think, very bonded because of UNIMATIC. The first three years or so, it was just Simone and I working 24 hours, 365 days, completely immersed.

The timepiece/pocket watch/sculpture (I really don't know what to call it) comes equipped with manual winding caliber Meca-10, which boasts a 10-day power reserve. I'm not sure anybody needs 10 days of reserve for their sapphire crystal pocket watch, but hey, this is Hublot and link more is more. Despite looking materially techy, the timepiece has link an organic feeling to it. The droplet feels smooth in your hands – a tactile little ticking organism that you can caress and grip. It's link soothing.
