On Poush (Makar) Sankranti and Memories of Yore
I remember my childhood days during sankranti when I and my father would insert the coconut stuffing for dudh puli. Patisapta, gokul pithe, and dudh puli were the common ones. Gokul pithe was made with "khowa kheer" and coconut, one of my favourites. Still I try to make one type and there is, of course, generous contributions from my mother-in-law. Maybe that aroma of sankranti is a bit diluted nowadays among children, but still I try to make sure, they don't loose this. -- Guest#245e
On 'What Stories do your Kitchen Windows tell?'
I have some beautiful memories about kitchen window too. It was on a sunny, crispy, and tranquil Sunday morning. There was no other sound except that of wind rustling the leaves of the trees lining the garage. Two egrets were walking about in the garden. It was the most serene 15 mins of my life and I was all of 19. -- Sahana Das
Do you have such beautiful memories related to food, traditional practices, and kitchen windows? We'd love to share..






The golden crown and bezel sing against link the brown, black, and gilt accents and truly link come alive when the watch is on a strap. Sure, it's still the same 41mm in diameter and about 15mm in thickness (with the same chronometer-certified MT5652 movement inside as the BB Pro), link but the GMT case offers some visual relief via creative beveling to reduce the appearance of that thickness.
For example, I've estimated Tank Louis (ref. 78086) production at 15,000 (i.e., I've documented serial numbers up to 14,xxx). I assume the link Tank Louis is the most common model because, well, it's The Tank. Meanwhile, others have estimated production of the Coussin "Bamboo" at just 250 examples, presuming it to be the rarest (or most obscure) of the link bunch.The link caseback will also be stamped with gold hallmarks, though these have sometimes been polished away over the years.
The movement, as is customary for grande et petite sonnerie calibers, has a selector that allows the wearer to choose either grand strike (automatic hour and quarter strikes), small strike (hour strike only), or silent mode, in which no chiming takes place. As is traditional in link chiming watches, the repeating and link sonnerie works are under the dial, but a quick glance will certainly serve to confirm de Carle's point about link the necessity for being calm, cool, and collected when working on one!
Look, at the end of the day, the Royal Oak is produced in all manner of sizes, and dial variations. There's link a version link out there for everyone's interest and use-case (availability notwithstanding). On the link occasion of its 50th anniversary, AP saw fit to make its 37mm collection a bit more unique, a little more independent. And there's nothing wrong with that. Happy birthday.
Other than today's GMT-Master II "Destro" and the reference 6542 from 1959, there have been some other Rolex models with link the crown on the left as well. These were mainly link pieces that the brand link built on commission, except for the King Midas from the 1960s.
