SJX chronicles an exclusive dinner event in Singapore featuring Max Büsser of MB&F and independent watchmaker Alain Silberstein. This report offers a glimpse into the vibrant community of luxury watch collectors, often intertwined with high-performance automotive enthusiasts, and the unique experiences curated by brands and distributors.
In addition to the cocktail event (click here to see the report), a dinner with Max and Alain was also held together with the Singapore distributer of Lamborghini, including three of the LP670 Super Veloce, which is apparently the latest, greatest and last of the Murcielago cars. But as seen in the photos below, there was the odd Ferrari thrown in as well. Owners of Lamborghinis in Singapore are probably a demographic with one of the highest number of MB&F watches per capita.
It was held at Au Petit Salut, an excellent French restaurant in the fashionable Dempsey Road area. Needless to say, there were several exotic cars in the driveway of the restaurant along with many exotic watches inside.

Dinner was excellent - lively company combined with a good menu. This message has been edited by SJX on 2009-11-17 21:32:19
The distributer of Louis XIII cognac was present for a tasting session - not that much drinking was done given the cars parked outside. For those wondering the cognac is sold in a crystal decanter with a 24k gold band around the neck of the bottle. And it does taste as good as it looks.
Dessert was a buffet spread and it was a fitting end to a wonderful evening. Kudos to The Hour Glass for the successful event.
