I saw it a couple of times in Bayeux. No queues. No fuss. It was wonderful. And considerably less than £33 a ticket.

You’d have to be mad to invest. The day Apple releases a health tracking ring, their business disappears overnight. Woop should be similarly worried. All it would take is a screen less Apple Watch and they’re dead too.

Not really. Looks like you need a good local watchmaker who could help without charging you a fortune. Maybe take it in to show the guys at Somlo Antiques (Burlington Arcade) the next time you’re in town. Doubt they’ll do the work but they’ll be able to point you in the right direction.
