Finally back after nearly 2 weeks in Magical Bali...and the 1st ever Horological Retreat for 50 - 60 passionate Indie collectors from around the world, TRULY EPIC !! Too much to upload to maybe it would be easier to see the video montage below
Special thanks to everyone involved, especially my brother H, the staff at the Ritz-Carlton Nusa Dua and the Royal Pita Maha. Enjoy and CANNOT wait for 2025 and the Horological Retreat 2 !!

AWESOME!!!!!! Sounds works fine too.
Wow, my wife and i would have loved to join in. Have been to Bali and know the area fairly well. RC is a lovely place to stay too. Congrats to all and great to see everyone enjoying their time
Looks amazing…
Nice to hear good things about your stay as I’m heading to the Ritz Carlton St. Thomas next week for some R&R 😎🤙🏻🏝️
Could barely see the scenery
But for all the wrist-scanning! Looks like a beautiful event, thanks for sharing - hope you brought home memories and maybe an auction item or two. Best, Colton
I posted earlier with photos in another thread, see below 😉 and as for the auctions, I was successful in getting the piece I wanted but the point was to help the orphans in Bali so mission accomplished 😊

Dang Homie, that looks like fun!
Was this sponsored by anyone? I see a ton of MB&F but no one I recognize from MB&F. Looks like a good time was had by all, thanks for sharing.
I have seen quite a few IGs posting this....This is Horological Heaven!!
Wow, good for you, Justin and many others to be invited. I wonder who's the generous sponsor for this? I kind of heard "Iceman" somewhere, and I know he's a huge collector from Indonesia....he posted here occasionally, less nowadays. What a superb event t...

He is Indonesian and has organized similar events for the VRA several years ago in Bali so we thought it would be a great idea to do the same for Indie collectors and VOILÀ the birth of the first Horological Retreat 😉 There were 50 - 60 passionate collect...
What a Fun Event with some Familiar Faces, I was expecting floating sky lanterns in the end :-) thank you for sharing
what favorite watches did you see at the event? S
Yes I can easily imagine it must have been really something…
Lucky you my friend, you must have enjoyed it fully 👍👌👌👌
Yeah it looks like you had an OK time 😀
Thanks for sharing! …. Knowing this would flood your inbox of next time invites. I like the production of the video, someone had to edit it, get the footage of people arriving, lots of details, drone shots, blah blah blah! Bravo my friend!
