MORE PHOTOS - don't miss them ...
Thanks for the great coverage. I thought I would add the non-Journe pieces to your thread, including a few wrist shots. I will do a Journe Mega Post shortly as the excuse for those pieces was to welcome my DS to the 'family'.
It was great to meet so many passionate individuals. My only regret was that there wasn't enough time to chat with everyone; the watches were rather distracting! At least the three days of IGOTT should provide more time to socialise.
Thanks again for being part of the fun.

The assorted non-F.P.Journe's at the table
A yummy trio of Patek's
Patek 5016. A perpetual repeater with so many hidden charms, like that discrete tourbillon. Sings like an angel ...
David and Goliath? So many jokes and comments around the table for this pair of distant cousins ...
My next perpetual? Perfect combination of elegance, discreet charm and horological fireworks ...
The Chocky Frog still touring ...
And another Grand Complication with a different personality - split second chronograph, perpetual, repeater in a titanium shell. Sporty and elegant all in one package ...
And there was some food consumed between watches, although I forgot to take photos of most of it! You will forgive me for being somewhat distracted ...
My first Feb28/Mar1 event! HK Purists GTG (pics galore!)
I started a new thread because this was my first Purist GTG ever! It was so great to meet with the many Purists who share a passion for horology. I have not seen so many perpetual and annual calendars in one place at one time. This was an impressive event...
Nice photo and report. Thank you!
Well done for the first-timer. Very well done. I hope you enjoyed non-independent watches as well Might I suggest to increase the size of the photos next time? Looking forward to more of your considerate posts. Best, Ken
Photo Size
Actually I wanted to increase the size but I just didnt know how..... any advice much appreciated!
Unless youe original photo size is actually smallish...
... you should have a chance to choose what size you want to post them on after uploading finishes. You may test in on "Help Desk" forum, AFTER reading this Bill's easy instruction - helpdesk.watchprosite.com / Ken
stunning array of watches, esp Journes.
Which is your fav QP of the day? And which QPs has the most exact change in dates amongst all present. Best, Horo
Nothing wrong with the Lange Justin.
By 12.15 am it had changed to the 1st. March moving progressively from the 28th,29th,30th,31st. and finishing on the 1st. It doesn't jump directly from 28th. to the 1st. like on the Moser. A nice recap of the evening & the watches present. Best fernando
The Moser wasn't the only one that made the instant jump...
The action was so fast that you can hardly be blamed for not noticing though!...
A powerful watch
I liked the way the RD didn't make its appearance until half way through the evening. But when it did, it made its presence known. An amazing hunk of watch and a fascinating contrast to the other perpetual, tourbillon repeaters on the table. Andrew
Powerful! Haha thats a funny word to describe it
I will just call the Roger Dubuis BIG ! This RD was one of 3 tourbillon, perpetual, minute repeaters along with the AP Grand Complication and the PP5016. It was extremely funny to see the difference in size. Fernando has a side by side shot ofthe PP and t...
Small clarification...
The AP is a Grand Comp in slightly different way: Perpetual Calendar + Minute Repeater + Split Second Chronograph.
It was fast.
In fact, so fast that we may have all missed it; coming in the blink of an eye - the transition I mean. If I rememer correctly,didn't it also reach its climatic point .... prematurely? I hope a review of this complicated beast is in the works? I am actual...
WOW... very impressive GTG!!!
.... as told HK has most number of Royce... i think HK now can claim most number of FP J too stefan
Beautiful pics of beautiful timepieces
Thanks for the pics. Wish I was there but I'm a long way from tokyo!
Wow wow...all heavy weight.
Lots of Journes. The AP Jules Audemars Grande Complications is truly stunning. Nice pics and report, thanks for sharing. Best, Goh
How do I sign up?
Whoa those are awesome pictures and watches. I recently moved to HK, and would love to participate. How do I sign up?
A marvellous collection of timepieces....
I don't think that I have seen so many privately owned Journe's in one place You all must have had a fantastic evening.

Thanks for the report Justin, and good to see you guys....... Things keep changing, and glad that watch nuts in HK are still crazy on watches. Hey, this is the first one we made 3 years ago ~ home.watchprosite.com Cheers ~
Thanks for the link ...
Thanks for the link, Daryl. I remember the thread well and the memories came flooding back looking at the photos again. I recognize a couple of recurring pieces - Journe MOP Calendrier, Parmigiani - and so many more great watches. You guys have all the fu...
WOW
That looked like a crazy night! OK, you had significantly more on display that we had. But who can complain? look at the quality of the collection. We had a superb night too!
