Noodia shares a vibrant photo report from a "Mini GTG" (Get-Together) with fellow collectors MattS and Djayrom, transforming a casual Sunday morning into a passionate watch and car enthusiast gathering. The post captures the camaraderie and shared appreciation for diverse timepieces, including vintage Rolex GMT-Masters and a rare Heuer Carrera.

We try to meet up for some time one of these Sunday morning with MattS to chat about watches and cars.
The summer weather this morning was a very good reason to accept Matt's invitation to join the countryside.
One of my good friend, Djayrom, was glad to join the party, at no rate we would have made the trip with our pockets empty
this is a photos report of what have turned from a friendly to a watch freaks party

thanks for coming by, it was a great morning! Let me add a couple of pics: First this one which is always such a shock, like when you encounter a super model: then a couple of creatives of a double Big Crown meeting, this may well be a first ever on the net!?... what a delightful moment! Matt

Matt, your complementary "BCs shots" are truly amazing and certainly a first over the Internet, thank you my friend ! 21 watches on the photos but there were rather 25 watches overall. These friendly gatherings are totally part of the experience, friendship and passion around watches, what could we expect better ? I'm still expecting to make an insane collectors lunch with a good friend, one day maybe ? If we do so, we will not miss to share it ! Thanks again, L

so many lovely watches on view, looks like a great time was had by all. You can tell immediately that all of the watches have been hunted after with determination and some expert vintage eyes. Laurent, have you got a little Universal theme growing, my friend?
