Returning with a bang, not a whimper!...
Thanks very much Tony - to echo those who have gone before, it was a great read about a great experience involving a great watch, and (without any exaggeration) possibly some of the best Independent watch photos in existence.

Cheers,
pplater.

Thanks for these great pictures Tony. Those who made it to the IGOTT can witness to the great design and finish. Kari has done it again with the double impulse escapement whic he says uses 30% less power. There is more to be done than just throwing new ma...

to look at your wonderful photos, to read your story and some insights. Thanks a lot for sharing it with us! Oliver
Thank you for this wonderful report.....
I never get tired of looking at Kari's masterpieces, and I also enjoyed the nice back-story. Must have been neat to be the first "outsider" to handle the new watch. Darren
Tony I want ...

Superb Post Tony P.
Thank you for finally sharing these exquisite images and for the story of your visit. Great to have you back posting, Cheers, Tim
Thanks folks.
More to follow. I have shots of nearly all the SIHH brand offerings from 2011, as well as copious notes from the press presentations. It takes a bit of cogitative effort to marshal one's thoughts on the various releases, then construct an overview and com...
