    This morning I got the sad news that one of our collector friends passed away,
    Jens-Kristian Soegaard, born 1949.

    A lot of collectors on the forum have met Jens Kristian during collector
    meetings in Schaffhausen, or during a BBGTGAMS in Amsterdam.

    I saw a fellow collector writing something about Jens Kristian that was spot
    on: " he always had that twinckle in his eyes", always friendly and a
    passionate collector of vintage IWC watches. Our deepest condolences to his
    family,

    So sad to hear this, but thanks for sharing this and the pictures Tonny.... I
    have fond memories of Jens-Kristian whom I met during various Collectors'
    meetings. A knowledgeable, modest and extremely friendly collector with
    amazing watches.

    My thoughts are with his family, may he rest in piece.

    became a very good friend affer our intitial meeting in Amsterdam in 2016 at
    the BBAMSGTG that year. We were the two oldest attendees and hence bonded.
    He will be missed. May he RIP.

    What very sad news. I had the great pleasure of meeting Jens Kristian at SIHH
    2016 and 2019. A quiet passionate collector with humour, grace and a kind
    spirit.

    His presence will be missed

    What a sad news to hear... I have met Jens at the BBAMSGTG just a couple of
    times but he was always very kind and interested and also as said before had
    that twinkle in his eyes.
    My thoughts are with his family.

    Regards,

    Jeroen

    My deepest sympathies for the passing of Jens-Kristian.
    It was my pleasure to know him as a member of our IWC family and to have spent
    time with him during the collectors meetings. He was a fine gentleman and will
    be missed.

    A kind, giving and knowledgable man that is now sorely missed.

    I have met Jens-Kristian on numerous occasions here in Denmark both at watch
    meetings and privately and I feel grateful for the time spent and for having
    gotton to know such a good person.
