Photo Caption Competition No. 7: Philippe Dufour’s Exuberant Fan

by Ian Skellern

Firstly, thanks to those that submitted entries to last week’s caption competition and to Martin for his winning entry, “First wife to say okay gets to buy it!”. You will find the image that inspired Martin’s caption by clicking Photo Caption Competition No. 6.

This week’s photo (below) features Philippe Dufour at the Naissance d’une Montre stand at SIHH 2016.

Nice anglage

Well, that’s not where I keep my grand complications, but whatever works for you

What on earth is this woman showing Monsieur Dufour, and what do you think he is thinking or saying?

Thanks to @Gerald_D for his winning entry, “Nice anglage”.
