Good to see all these friendly faces gathering around superb watches.
Mo's Sonata is a piece of choice, as well as the 5130P, the RO Skeleton QP, and some lovely Independant watches ( KV / Gronefeld / PSM ).
You have sure taste, guys!
I miss you all.
Best,
Nicolas.
London Math: 8 = 32+
A much overdue post as I recently relocated, but here are some pictures of a mini gtg of 8 London purists last month than included over 32 pieces (yes, at some point I lost count ). Enjoy! As always, it was a pleasant evening with some unique pieces and a...
Thanks a lot Walid for the report!
Great watches, friends, excellent atmosphere, all the ingredients of a perfect GTG! By the way, it was an impressive gathering of independant watches... Fx
Thanks FX!
Yes it was definitely a memorable gtg. Admittedly, I think I had some indy bias in choosing the pics, but with so many great pieces in attendance I tried to have some of the less-featured pics up. Best, Walid
Wow...
2 Gronefelds at the same table (watches not Tim and Bart!). Some amazing pieces and looks like all had a great time. Thanks for sharing, Andrew
Wish you were there, Andrew!
It was a pleasure meeting you during the May gtg, and hopefully I'll get to see you at a future gtg! Best, Walid
Next time...
...for sure Walid. The May GTG was great fun and really nice to meet such a friendly bunch of watch fanatics. Salon QP?? Cheers Andrew
Salon QP seems a bit unlikely this year
But definitely at a not too distant gtg! Best, Walid

Good eye!
I knew I had gotten something wrong. You are correct, its the 5110P's older sibling, the 5130P! Best, Walid
Thanks for your nice report
The KV appeal is still intact. Nice to see it in nice company, but imho in a class of its own. Best. Z'
Thanks Z!
Definitely, that Kari is a stunner with its stunning guilloche dial. To be honest there were way too many beauties on show and it was hard to give each its fair time - not that I am complaining ;). Best, Walid
Howdy Walid.
I think I recall meeting you during the Salon QP gathering last year? Some familiar faces...and I love the cast picture of Mo with thumbs up...what are you listening to? Till the next gathering....and thanks for the report Best, Horo
Thanks Horo!
Alas, I didn't make it to last year's Salon QP, and doubt I will be making it to this year's either :(. On a side-note, I have thoroughly enjoyed reading up on your reports and your posts and very much look forward to meeting you in the near future! Best,...
Lovely evening.
We should do it again soon... A few more: I love these Universal Geneve Tri-Complex: Cal. 481 manual wind, if I remember correctly. M ...
Thanks for those pics M!
If a gtg is arranged, I'll certainly try to move things around and fly-out for another GTG ;) Best, Walid
Love the fifty fathoms!
a real dream watch to me and one I would love to own one day. Cheers Andrew
Looking back
Its easy to get dizzy when so many beauties are on the table,but looking back now,wooow we had so much stuff to play with and what kind! Impressed by holding 2 Gronefelds ,seeing that Becsi again,and the emotions that the Vingt8 can give.....not to talk a...
Dangerous friends
Hanging around with these gentelmen is very dangerous to my collecting desires. While a confirmed vintage man, I have to say everytime I see some of these stunning modern watches, one admires the craftsmanship, the artistry and the sheer mechanical ingenu...
Thanks for posting Walid
It was a lovely evening. Hope you're move went well and you can make it back now and again to visit with us.
Of course, my friend
Will do my best! Best, Walid ps: I owe you a huge congratulations, hope the festivities were wonderful ;)
Nice GTG.
Impressive "independents" gathering. I can feel from your pics that you had a great time. The One Hertz kills me, and what to say about the wonderful Voutilainen? Amazing timepiece. Thanks Vte :)
You are welcome, vte
It is a very dangerous gathering when it comes to these gents ;). The cumulative knowledge and enjoyment of horology is something special at these gtgs. Best, Walid
Typo error
Hi, thanks for sharing. BTW there is a typo error. The Voutilainen piece is a Vingt-8 not Observatoire.
You are absolutely correct, John
It is in fact a WG Vingt-8 and not an Observatoire. Thanks for pointing it out and apologies to all for the mistake. Best, Walid
