The Stars came out in London recently...
Date - Tuesday 29th November
Venue - The Club at The Ivy, London
A special evening featuring thirteen avid UK based Purists and one Mr. Roger Smith.
The conversation and culinary delights were of appropriately high quality, but the real stars come out in the form a fascinating address from Roger, along with a display of haute horology probably never seen in one place before.
Thank you most in particularly to Roger and the always helpful and enthusiastic staff at The Ivy. Also, James Gurney from QP and The Telegraph for providing a gift for everyone.
I'll let let some photos of the night give you a flavour of a thoroughly enjoyable event.
Thank you to all those who attended.
Until we meet again.

Honoured and delighted I could attend...
One in a lifetime experience to witness a table shot of that magnitude.... The highlight pieces really were a wonder to behold! Great night indeed. Mo
Great pics and report
The Daniels watches/school of watches remain my absolute favorite among classically styled watches.
Thank you
Thank you again for the invite; a wonderful and very enjoyable evening. Lovely to meet Roger and to have an opportunity to listen to him speaking about Dr Daniels.
hia atelier makes about 10 plus watches a year, and you distract him from production!! :)-
jokes aside, he is a wonderful person, very attached to Daniels legacy, and very down to earth. I got to spend some time with him in Singapore when I hosted an event for several Independents. Was he wearing a Omega? best, Horo
