| The X Mark like a bad omen on the shop |
Seen in Cairo what it could be the last days of 111-years S. Hinhayat shop, Egypt’s oldest surviving watches and clock shop “most probably in the MiddleEast”.
I have been fascinated with that sign and how it says "Established in 1907" and how its Egyptian owner and his heirs have kept the name of that Bulgarian man "Solomon Hinhayat" since he had sold it their grandfather in 1948.
Unfortunately, that shop won’t be here for too long as its building will be demolished for that mega development project of Maspero triangle.
I feel really sad 😞
