Yesterday George Daniels passed away.... 14 Aug 1926 - 21 Oct 2011.
If I have come involved into watchmaking it is thanks to George Daniels. He was my mentor and inspirer, I believe that the Horological world will miss him very much.

Most of the horological matters I've done have always been inspired by him...... RI.P.

I forgot to write that G. Daniels is the inventer of the Co-axial escapement that is used today by Omega watches.
