evening with massive communication between everyone and , remarkably between watches and attendees. Thanks Kong. Faisal
the guests engaged during an event. Thanks for viewing. Kong
Looks like it was a very enjoyable evening. Regards, Richard.
Any of the new model caught your eyes? Kong
But a review of your photos suggests there are 2, twins maybe? Unless there was a dress and jewellery change in between. Sorry, I digress, this is a watch forum after all ... The LUC Engine One Tourbillon looks most appealing to me but I'd have to reserve judgement until I see them up close. Regards, Richard.
Hi Richard For the L.U.C 2010 Collection, there are four models. I did not get you about the 2 models (twins). Please elaborate, and I will clarify. Would like more of us to see the four models and listen to the feedback. Thanks. Kong
