Thanks Robin, Stefan and JLC!
Thanks to all 3 of you for making the event happen!
I agree that the sharing was a nice touch, and I really liked Stefan's account of how he made new friends like Blomann through this hobby. A good reminder that while we enjoy the watches, the company we keep and the friendships we develop as fellow JLC lovers is just as important. I am grateful to have been part of it, and to have made new friends last night.
Like you Robin, I was also captivated by the chocolate Reverso. Delightfully different! Plus the Fagliano cordovan strap is a revelation. In fact, in the background you can see my neglected Reverso Duo on the table looking jealously at this new interloper on my wrist ;-)
All in all, a wonderful evening, and thanks to everyone who was there and made it enjoyable for all of us.

Stefan and his rare bird, the Memovox from the 80ies... Wish I attended the event, Robin. From what I see, the watches were top, especially this Duometre UTT which is very dear to my heart, and the evilish Reverso Red! As for friends... All great guys. JL...

And a great friend! :) Yes, these GTG's are the best way to meet new friends and to learn from each other. Best Blomman

Thanks for sharing wonderful events like this. Great collections and wonderful wrist shot! That chocolate reverso is a killer!
Thank you and happy you enjoyed the post!
We were so happy that when the rally came for wrist shots, everyone came together for it ! When watches bring friends together, it's always a warm feeling to cherish Cheers Robin
Thanks for the fantastic JLC gtg !
I had a wonderful time at the dinner event and also catching up with old and new friends. The food and wine were excellent ! Since quite alot has already been said, I just want to share my favourite for the evening is the JLC Perpetual Calendar with 8 day...
This is a great watch, my friend. The 8 Days perpetual is one of my fav PCs.
I LOVE the combination of a 8 Days movement with a PC. And this one is really cool. Best, Nicolas
Bro, I could see the 8 days PC's poison seeping in you :)
Very happy you enjoyed yourself that night! It was great catching up with you and our dear friends too that night Cheers Robin
We missed you Ruckdee!
Hopefully another time my friend. Ping me when you next visit! :) Cheers Robin
Nice GTG and report
Thanks for the report on the JLC GTG dinner. Looks like you all had a lot of fun, and great to see Stefan. He is such cool and nice guy with some great JLC pieces. Regards, ED-209
Totally agree on Stefan
His sharing was fantastic! Not just on JLC but his journey on collecting and making friends along the way. some of the stories he shared were so heartwarming. That's why we love our hobby I guess! Cheers Robin
Lovely evening
Great company and great watches, and i'm sure at some point there was food too! Thanks JLC for the wonder event!
Too much food especially the dessert! :)
No one could finish that big slice of chocolate cake ! :) Food was great but of course the company matter more... And the watches :) Cheers Robin
Thanks for the post.
Thank you Robin for sharing these lovely photos and JLC Singapore for organizing this get together. It was an eye opener for me and I particularly enjoyed Stefan's story of how he acquired his memovox.
