Plastiki on Holiday in Greece (with a GTG)

It was back to Halkidiki Greece for my annual visit, but this time with perhaps a much more appropriate ‘holiday’ timepiece… my Ingenieur Mission Earth ‘Plastiki’.

The vibrant blue and orange, with its rich textured dial... I was never without my trusted watch (not that I was really bothering to keep the time!). I took part in many of the things one usually does when trying to recharge the batteries.

There was the lying by the pool:

There was lounging on the beach:

There was enjoying delicacies:

There was taking in the sunsets:

But this year had the extra bonus, of meeting up fellow forummer Argiris for a mini-GTG:

Always wonderful to catch-up with a fellow forummer, sharing the passion.

Very nice pics mate. Love the Plastiki. Looks like a nice place to holiday. Summer? We are heading into winter in NZ, so, enjoy the sun!

Cheers,

Jarrod

Now that looks like a good time with a great guy. And for all practical purposes the Plastiki is as good as an Aquatimer.

Great pictures Thang!

Thanks for sharing!

Very nice report sounds like a lot of fun. I like the plastiki and I agree with you, it is the perfect watch for such kind of holidays.

Cheers Chris

Summer has officially started: the GTG's have moved from inside to sunny exteriors. Nice to see you having fun, folks!

Great report! Great GTG!

Thang,
You visited one of my favorite places and met with one of my favorite people...my esteemed brother Argiris! Thanks for for the photos and report. Your Plastiki was the perfect travel companion for this sojourn!

Great pics Thang. This forum is simply great - in addition to the watches and the talks about it, it enables to meet people all over the world, wherever you are

Thank you for this nice report Thang!
The Plastiki fits perfectly to the sea in the Background. And what a great place for a GTG!
Best,
-Christian

A great watch and perfectly suited for the occasion. Next to the Cousteau diver my favorite holiday watch...

Great watches and pictures. It's always fun to see pictures of GTG's, these really make this Forum special.

Kind regards,

Clemens

I regret so much that I sold my Plastiki!
