Day 210 - Piaget & Bernardo Cohen

This morning we accompanied Valerie & Chris to the central train station and wished them well for the rest of their journey. Who knows, maybe we will meet them again someday in New Zealand. They were interesting, fun companions to travel with.

Then we visited the Piaget agency, where its owner, Bernardo Cohen, warmly welcomed us. Mr. Cohen took us to Joyeria Ricciardi, the best jeweler in Buenos Aires. He introduced us to the owner, who proudly showcased some of the most beautiful gems and necklaces I had ever seen. Joyeria Ricciardi only carried luxury brands like Piaget, Patek Phillip, and Rolex. They are known for handcrafting high-end custom jewelry.

Bernardo’s wife joined us for dinner at the exclusive restaurant El Ceibol. This place supposedly served the best meat in Argentina. It was indeed exceptional. We had a long conversation with the Cohens. They showed much interest in our travels and future New Zealand and Australia plans. Bernardo is a friend of the Piaget family in Switzerland and knows Camille Pilet and Gedalio Grinberg at the agency in New York where I used to work as Service Director.

We got back to the Swiss Club in El Tigre after midnight with a feeling of pride and having had a successful day.
