IWC Hong Kong organized a collectors' GTG last week in the Causeway Boutique. Most of the 2016 novelties were presented. What made this GTG extra-extraordinary are two special guests form Schaffhausen : Hannes Pantli, Member of the Board and David Seyffer, Curator of the IWC Museum.
The night started with a glass of champagne, a twist from most IWC events is that the guests of the night were all watch buddies of SC Fong, Alec and yours truly.
It is always a pleasure having Hannes sharing great stories of IWC and David presenting the history of IWC watches. We also had a quiz session (just like what Tonny does all the time) with various IWC goodies as gifts.
Lots of the novelties were presented, here are a few examples.
What's extra-special is the exhibits of some iconic historical IWC pilot models, borrowed from the IWC museum.

We then moved to the Hong Kong Football Club for a sumptuous meal. This is our favourite venue for GTG, friends who have visited us in Hong Kong should know this place very well.

And we shared photos among ourselves on the goodies we got from the event
Thanks Hannes and David for coming over to Hong Kong. Thanks Goris, Apple, Tony and the IWC team for making such great evening happen, and thanks SC Fong for communicating among the watch buddies!
This certainly is one of the best GTG's.
