Munich was already giving me warning signs before we even arrived. 😂 Oktoberfest = INSANE hotel prices. That should’ve been my first clue.

Munich Residenz was beautiful and ridiculously grand, but after Vienna… honestly, I felt like I’d already seen enough royal extravagance for one trip. 🫩🫩🫩
visit Frauenkirche and take the photo of the famous Devil’s Footprint 👣, then try the famous pork knuckle at one of the popular student spots-#Haxnbauer, it’s ok.

But #Gasthaus Waltz? THAT was a great decision. ❤️ If I knew more about wine, I probably would’ve been losing my mind over that place. Great food, an amazing wine selection, and genuinely friendly servers. One warning: show up EXACTLY at your reservation time. Early means nothing—they’re not giving you that table.🥺🥺

And then… Munich Airport. 🤬

My advice? AVOID IT if you can. Getting the tax refund was ridiculously confusing, poorly marked, and nearly impossible to find. Luckily, I’m the type who gets to the airport ridiculously early, so I eventually figured it out and still had time to spare.

FUCK YOU, MUNICH AIRPORT.
FUCK YOU, GERMANY. 🤬🖕🇩🇪I almost heart attack from this all tax refund process in the Munich Airport

The Füssen trip from HELL. 🏰🤬

Planned everything a MONTH in advance—8:30 AM FlixBus, castle tour, tickets… all perfectly organized.-apparently the bus decided it was leaving at 8:00 instead. We arrived and were basically told, “Yeah… WTF it already left.” 🤬🔥
I was ready to explode, but hey—it wasn’t the employee’s fault. So after calming down, everything to the next day and decided to figure out the castle tickets somehow.

Holy shit. That hill is NO JOKE. Shuttle bus? Huge line. Horse carriage? Huge line. Time? Of course, running out. 😵‍💫”Fuck, hike quick and get the line”yelled at my roomy.
Mission accomplished. 🏰📸

I even booked a nice restaurant, Broeding for dinner so we could end this nightmare in Germany.
😱😱😱
On the way back, something happened on the highway and we were stuck for OVER THREE HOURS. 😑 Dinner reservation destroyed. I emailed the restaurant explaining the situation and hoping they wouldn’t charge us.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

But we got the pictures. THAT’S IT. And not great picture of mine🫩this my Roomy doesn’t have skill for it🫩

#Hallstatt with a tight schedule, I rushed straight to the salt mine! 🧂⛰️; I was the only one screaming out going down the salt mine slides 😵‍💫🤭 it was fun.

it was time to feed my Roomy who is somehow ALWAYS hungry. 😩Why!

After another long, exhausting day of traveling, nothing hits the spot like a bowl of ramen to comfort the soul. 🍜❤️; not great place, but ok.

A beautiful day following in the footsteps of The Sound of Music. I knew they would get crowded later, so we got out early — and luckily, the weather was absolutely beautiful. ☀️🎬My roommate is terrible at taking pictures, so I barely got any good shots.

I had a reservation at the famous St. Peter Stiftskulinarium, including a historic rock cellar seat. Things got off to a disappointing start when we weren’t seated in the area we had specifically reserved. After asking, we were eventually moved there — but even then, the setting wasn’t quite as impressive as I had imagined.

Unfortunately, the food didn’t turn things around. Maybe it stays very faithful to traditional recipes, but for me, the seasoning and overall balance just didn’t work. Considering the history and reputation of the restaurant, I expected much more.

Salzburg 🇦🇹 —visiting both his birthplace and residence- not recommend Mozart residence. a Bosna sausage — cheap, simple, and definitely a fun local experience.
Coffee at the highly rated 220 Grad Nonntal was excellent. Dessert? Not so much. Dinner at Meissl & Schadn was a major disappointment — a bad schnitzel and an unpleasant way to end the day.

A wonderful traditional shop where umbrellas are still handmade by a local craftsman, and naturally, we came home with one. ☂️

DomQuartier — an enormous amount of history and cultural heritage packed into one place. Impressive, but the confusing route and an audio guide that seemed completely out of sync with where we were made the whole experience much harder than it needed to be.

At Hellbrunn Palace, we spent what felt like forever trying to find our way around the famous Trick Fountains, but eventually we made it!

Thankfully, lunch at Herzl completely turned things around. Warm bread with herb butter and spreads, great fried chicken, refreshing wine and beer, and an incredible French toast dessert with ice cream and plums. Finally, a meal that made us happy!

Hohensalzburg Fortress… and honestly, I regretted it. Not much to see. And to finish things off, my roommate somehow decided that the perfect place to drink a beer at one of Salzburg’s greatest viewpoints was… a table with absolutely NO VIEW. 🤬🍺

That was the moment my patience officially left Salzburg

Beautiful city, lots of history, some great discoveries, some terrible food, and plenty of frustration — but definitely a trip we’ll remember

At the Kunsthistorisches Museum, the must-sees for me were Velázquez’s remarkable portraits of the young Infanta Margarita, following her as she grew up, Bruegel’s The Tower of Babel, and Vermeer’s The Art of Painting.

Chuan was a great Chinese meal-crumpled cucumber, Plachutta delivered the classic Viennese experience, and MAST Weinbistro — with its creative small plates, interesting combinations, and excellent flavors — was the perfect way to finish the trip.

The famous Sachertorte with a Wiener Melange is absolutely worth experiencing at least once, and Demel’s Kaiserschmarrn was another dessert worth making room for.

Great art, great food, and a very satisfying ending to our time in Vienna. 🇦🇹

At this year’s Geneva Watch Days, I had the opportunity to meet co-founder Martin @th3onlybullitt from @micromilspec and was able to examine these much-talked-about watches firsthand for the first time.

For those who haven’t heard of it before, “Mil Spec” stands for military specifications, and the guys at Micromilspec don’t just use that as a marketing tool—they actually deliver military-tested watches with incredibly impressive features and specifications.

One of them is the Worldtimer prototype (#000) for the next annual limited edition. With Martin’s permission, I’m able to show it here, and I don’t think many people have seen it yet.

World timer, GMT, chronograph, titanium case, 100 hours of power reserve, and—incredibly—200m water resistance and you can use the chronograph under water!, Swiss-made, 42mm. Amazing, right?

If things go the way they have in the past, fewer than 100 pieces will be available later this year and they’ll probably sell out in a very, very short time.

The price will likely be just under 3,000 USD. I’m all in.

Most watchmakers hide their most intricate hand-finishing on the back, forcing you to flip the watch over to appreciate the real magic.

Moritz Grossmann basically said “screw that” with the Backpage and flipped the entire movement architecture inside out. Seeing that massive, hand-engraved balance cock, the intricate wheel train, and those signature hand-annealed brown/violet screws front and center on the dial side is pure horological theater.

They took Glashütte precision, inverted the caliber, and turned the front of the watch into an absolute masterpiece of visible mechanics.

Between the raw mechanical flex on the dial and the aggressive texture on the wrist, this isn’t just a watch contextually—it’s an outright flex for anyone who truly gets independent watchmaking.

Another insane feature that is traditional for Moritz Grossman is the way you set the time. The crown is reverse sprung so once you pull it out the balance wheel stops. You set the time but instead of pushing the crown back in you simply press the button below the crown to re-engage the balance wheel.

The Moritz Grossmann Backpage is a horological masterpiece.
