Humble gathering!! Amazing!!! I must say.... that Kari is a beauty!!!
And all the other pieces are spectacular!!! Thanks for sharing with us! HAGWE, S
A very modest gathering, I see...
Independents galore. I can't remember seeing so many Lang&Heyne's together anywhere before. I used to think their onion crown is anchronistic, but looking at all those watches I was surprised to find those crowns the nicest, most balanced with the cas...
Woah! I have never seen a table shot like this one!
Impressive! Am sure you guys had a great time Jester! Cheers Robin
If I am not mistaken
Some of these look to be from the great collection of Mr. Samwan? I just love those indies! Looks like a Gronefeld in the mix also? And a Romain Gauthier! Just a great GTG Thanks for sharing Best, Joe
Hehe.... eagles eyes
I was somewhat disappointed that David did not bring along his two Roger Smith's and Lang & Heyne (Konrad der Grobe - constant force and jumping seconds).....
Any time you can see a Roger Smith it is a treat!
That L&H is also rarely seen here. In fact I do not recall a post. Thanks. Best Joe
In that case ...
"L&H is also rarely seen here. In fact I do not recall a post." Use our search function and you will find some and there is more coming ... :-) Best, Oliver
I can understand you very well ...
and therefore I thought you might like to see (instead of Konrad der Große) a Markgraf Heinrich, just for the pleasure of looking: :-) Best, Oliver ...
Wow!
What a gathering... Very impressive gathering of fine timepieces! Very. Impressive.
Thanks Jester.... what I love so much about the group table shot is.....
....There is sooooo much choice out there, outside of the regular names in horology. All of those watches, in one way or another sing, to the heart. My personal take, and we will see if I am correct, is that independent watch manufacturers will become a b...
It was a great night...and it should happen more
The indy path could be a lonely one as there are fewer to resonate with. On the table you see a wide variety of horology approaches and qualities that are difficult to find in the main stream brands. Stories behind the watches add so much to the fun of co...
The least we can say is that it is a nice and refreshing gathering
Some of them are by the way very rare, even on Purists. Thanks a lot for sharing Jester. Cheers, Mark
Incredible!!
Wow, I have not seen 4 LFs and other amazing independent timepieces in one place before, what a gathering! Looks to be a very enjoyable event. Thanks for sharing!
