Lovely to see you Greg.
Glad you could slip into the empty chair. You brought a couple of vintage beauties with you.
An impromptu London gathering
This week a few of us managed to get together for a few stolen hours indulging ourselves with some beautiful gems and conversation. Guest of honour was Blomman who made a flying visit to our rainy shores. A few of us die hards wangled some time off in the...
This is what I call "the gathering"
Ubik (Is from the Philip K. Dick's book?), Thanks for sharing. I believe that over the table there are the most desired watches around (bar Vlad's) Cheers, Nilo
'the gathering'
Thank you guys, really enjoyed Wed night, look forward to the next. Best David
looks like it was fun. thanks for the invite.
i would love to have been there, but i was probably washing my hair that day
I've heard it's an all day event washing your hair!
Will you be going to Paris or the big London GTG. When are you down in the big smoke next?...
i'll be at both Eitan...
i'll be at both Eitan and can pretty much get up to London whenever asked if there's a small gtg going on best G...
You make me feel very bad to have missed that GTG, Eitan.
Was on to write you and Joe and Imran to take some news. But sometimes, real life doesn't allow us to do what we would love to do. I feel a next opportunity will come soon. Anyway, friends, friendly watches, and great moments are always a pleasure to see,...
It´s what I say as a great GTG
I can admire lots of great watches. What a collection! REally thanks for sharing these great moments of watches and friendship. I know, i know... I need a new GTG in my life, again Best Emilio
Podéis contar conmigo, of course :)
The date is confirm, Nico? If it´s so, the 21st of April will be perfect (work days are more difficult for me, but the weekend is perfect) Tell me all about this Paris GTG, hermano. I´ll start to organize it, hermano!!!! Very best, my dear Nico Emilio
Paris, de verdad.
Es un Sabado, Lobato. Nos divertiremos todo el dia, y de juerga por la noche, si te apetece. Dime todo. Un abrazo. Nicolas
Perfect!
You know that I don´t visit my beloved Paris since some time ago, I love this city. I´m going to start to check the travel and the hotel A great weekend it´ll be, I´m sure, herman And I will be able to show you my only watch now... since some years with a...
A lovely one, and, as per a coincidence,
This was the very one with which I started my journey into watches... So, yes, it is an important one for me. Happy to see that you finally made this dive into GMT! Best, Hermano, y ... Hasta pronto! Nicolas
As they say...
You´ll never walk alone! Hard years, hermano. But the secret is in the adaptation to the change (adaptarse al cambio, en español ) I´m happy because soon I´ll meet again a my dear friends. and thanks for your congrats, my dear wife LOL...
Your name was invoked many times
your presence was with us - even if your watches were not. So hopefully we can meet again soon, my friend.
Thanks for the nice words, my friend.
Can you come on the 21st of April? Let me know, please. All the best, Nicolas
Great summary Ubik.....
It was indeed a fabulous day. Yes.....10/10 for Bloman for making the trip over...that is true passion.....and most definitely a Bastardo. Is it my imagination, or is Imran's wrist getting bigger?
No, it is not your imagination, Baron.
Irman is doing very well these days. That is what you need to wear a 372. Best, my friend, and hope to see you soon! Nico
I am so wish I could be where you guys at.
Pity there wasn't much vintage collector in where I'm at. Regards Tyler
Thanks for the encouragement.
And you are worth ten thousand of me I still have much to learn ... been hitting corners here and there. Regards Tyler
Wish I could. 2012 is not friendly to me.
My travel plan all gone haywire. I wish a better next year. Thanks for the invite ... I mean order Regards Tyler
Perhaps we could do a Skype GTG!
It would have been a pleasure to see you Tyler - any chance of you coming to the big London GTG?
Never done anything like that before.
Might be interesting. I won't be able to travel for the next 6 months. There a big milestone I got hit meet for business. Of course I want to join ... ... hehehe Just maybe not this year. Will try to looking into how this Skype thing works. Thanks for the...
Thanks for organising guys...
And sorry the chair was empty when you took the pictures. It was full later though
Lovely to see you Greg.
Glad you could slip into the empty chair. You brought a couple of vintage beauties with you.
Thank you for a great GTG! :)
Really happy to been able to join – great to meet you all again, my friends! Even if it was a very short visit this was exactly what my spirit needed! Been working too much lately, no time for joining here in the forum, no time for watches… Now I feel ene...
And you didn't do a jump till Paris??? :)))
check your neck, my fr'iend. I am waiting for you on our next GTG... All the best, my future poor friend. Nicolas.
I enjoyed your 'learnings', Blomman ...
It's nice to have our horizons broadened, our preconceptions challenged and our eyes opened. It's the best part of PuristS too; seeing watches through the eyes of other passionate collectors. Andrew
you updated the list!...
These GTGs are great, you always come out somehow shocked, but also energized and with some new challenges, keeps us going! Hope to see you in Paris in the Spring! Matt
Bad boys and some candies!...
sure you guys had a great time!...and great watches... That Polaris trio...the antimagnetic theme, that stunning Explorer! also the PCG 1675, ah when you encounter some of the best of vintage Rolex!... Matt
Thanks for the night out gents..
always a pleasure to discover the Vintage side......a wild one for sure... Mo
Always like to make a new convert Mo
I fell in love with your blues and stars a long time ago.
Cool gathering
and a lot of watches! Nice to see the pics, even from a non-vintage guy there are some nice looking timepieces there! Cheers Andrew
