SINGAPORE GTG with Hublot & The Hour Glass
Hi all, hope its cool to share this with folks on thepurists : )
I've gotten amazing feedback from everyone so far and its really because we had such a wonderful crowd at this GTG. Watch enthusiasts from TZ and Horomundi who were all keen on sharing their passions and their love for watches in all shapes colors and forms : )
There were also an amazing array of BIG BANGS on wrists and circulating at the event and it was just fantastic.
I may sound repetitive but I would again like to extend HUGE thanks to Mr Biver for his great support, Michael and Jacqueline from the Hour Glass who have both been tremendous, and most of all to the attendees... it would not have been such a fantastic night without such a great crowd. THANKS EVERYONE... & I'll let the pictures do the talking : ) Hope you enjoy the post

Watch inspection ... having a closer look
THE TABLE SHOT... oooooohhhhhh

What a mixture of Internet WIS enthusiasts.....
raphmeister,
Thanks for the report. Good to see the usual WIS from all the WIS internet sites having fun with the irrepressible Mr Biver. I see that some are 'Multi-Site Visitors' i.e. to PuristS, TZ, etc.....did you get triple sponsorship ? 
Hey! the GTG attracted even the Paneristi and AP-ians and clashed with the AP book-signing event. Mrs MTF is an AP fan so we stayed at AP event >>> click here

Nice to have met you at Tempus II; I'm usually a-Nony-Mouse due to the need to do restaurant reviews
Regards,
MTF

was great meeting up with a lot of new friends...
(hmm seems i have 2 logins in purists...)
Anyways, I enjoyed Tempus tremendously & it was great to meet Melvyn, SJX and a whole lot of other purists too.
MTF, I was also at the AP event. Thank goodness it was only cocktails so I got my book and signatures and hightailed it to my GTG to welcome folks over for a good dinner gathering. You can't be that a-Nony-Mouse as you moderated the Patek talk which I attended and found to be pretty good. I had to leave before it ended though as I had a JLC class on so didn't see any q&a action there.
To end off, it was a great event and meeting up with so many cool and friendly enthusiasts open to sharing views and knowledge was definitely the highlight. I can recall many engaging conversations and I take away great memories.

I think this lady hangs about these parts so shout out to Liling and I am sure she had lots of fun whilst here.
Look forward to meeting up with you and other KL-based enthusiasts when I pop by later in the year
