AHCI - The Rebel Alliance of De Bethune, MB&F and Urwerk

The Rebel Alliance of De Bethune, MB&F and Urwerk

Tonight I was invited for a dinner hosted by the 3 Independent brands of De Bethune, Urwerk and MB&F well as Hour Glass Singapore. Alessandro, Felix and Max were all present. It was a night I had to toggle 2 dinners at the same time! Quite an experience.

Some quick pics to share on this Rebels event!

What a cute theme! Star Wars !!

My Rebel watch tonight on the right wrist (left wrist is my Dufourgraph as I also had to attend the dinner of the "Empire")

The dinner venue at the Grand Hyatt Singapore

A large scale dinner! A gathering of rebels in an alliance !

Cocktail party started first. Glad to catch up with fellow Purist from Sydney, OzTimeLord as well as Max Busser!

Many eye candies below. Enjoy!!

Finally we were ready to sit down and have our dinner!

Bro watches!

Very hungry now!

The chefs appeared! Each wearing a Star Wars character mask

A panel of 3 masters!

Dessert buffet - very interesting concept!

Each master has their fair share of fans!

Hope you enjoyed the pics!
There are some interesting discussions brought up during the panel chats. I will write a bit on that tomorrow.

Cheers
Robin

So many Jedi Masters! A lot for all the young padawans to learn from all the Jedi Masters! Thanks for all the pictures! I'm really happy to see MELCHIOR. It's amazing though, all the MELCHIORs have been sold already and is more or less sold out in every m...

Great points Patrick

On Urwerk and MB&F My personal favorite last night has to be the MB&F frosted LM 101s. The one in yellow gold especially! Cheers Robin ...

Again, a great report!

I enjoyed the same pieces the day before :-) and that DeBethune's deep blue dial is really cool! Mesmerizing!

Agree my friend

I missed seeing these at Basel show because they moved from the usual Palais exhibition hall. Like translocating a Death Star ;) Regards MTF ...

Death Star prototypes perhaps!

Hang on... I thought Felix is a general of the rebel alliance? Or does he work for the empire ?!! Oh no... Many PuristS lives are in danger now! :p Cheers Robin

These are independents!!!

Most likely ,and hopefully,amongst the ones that will remain forever... I applaud their courage and vision ,hard to find in a very stale industry dominated by the big boys..... Watchmaking or moneymaking?These guys went for the former,,,,,well done.. Mo
