A trip to Montenapoleone street - LOT of pics

Recommended Posts

GenTLe

Yesterday, after office time, I had to wait for 3hrs because in the evening there was a conference in the Milan planetarium where I wanted to go.

 

So what to do? Well why not wandering around the "luxury street" in he European capital of fashion (who Milan is)?

 

Montenapoleone st. is the one that has practically ALL the major brands of whatever luxury exists: from mobile phones (Vertu), to electronics (Bang&Olufsen) to jewelry (Van Cleef & Arpels / Damiani / Buccellati / Cartier...), to apparel (Versace, Armani, Loro Piana, LV, Bottega Veneta, Hermes, Hogan etc).

 

And, obviously, watches!!! I even went inside the Bulgari boutiques to try on the Diagono Magnesium that I'm fancying as rep :D (yes yes, I was wearing a gen Seiko)

 

All in around 3/400m these are some of the pics I've taken :)

And now the "temple". These is the biggest watch shop I've ever seen. Its web site is this one: https://www.pisaorologeria.com/en/

They have 45 (fortyfuckingfive) brands inside.

Just give a look at their displays:

Probably the Octo finissimo is worth the money (if you like the style). For the Diagono magnesium I'd say that the rep is perfect.

I can say the same :D
