Does gouter work to describe aesthetic appreciation in French, or is it just for food? Thanks ! Gouter (Gouter is the verbal infinitive form) can be used as a literal translation of you have good taste, like that : "Tu as bon goût !". Funny enough this is the same expression to say "You taste good" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thommo82 1,397 Posted October 29, 2018 Thanks to @Chixisigma buying my B&R 123 I had enough funds to order this one from my list Factory refurbished with 3 year warranty. RRP $550 USD but I paid $208 USD Personally I think it’s beautiful! Smooth sweeping seconds hand and all the other good stuff apart from sapphire crystal. May end up swapping out the strap if I don’t like it on mesh, most likely black leather with an orange stitch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
