Yesterday afternoon and evening we had another outstanding IWC NYC Boutique
GTG. The guests of honor were Jarrod and Stephani from NZ. As we have come
to expect, the Boutique staff was exceptionally hospitable and accomodating .
We took over the upstairs loft for our visit.
The first arrivals were Richard Sheridan, Jarrod Gill, Tony Gomes, Stephani,
and me.
The full complement: Tony, Jarrod, Jenifer and Dustin from Australia, Steffi,
me, and Mary B., Evan, and Richard.
Tony reached out electronically to a couple of guys who might join us.
Answering the first call was Nelson Herring.
We tried to call Terry Russell, but he may be traveling to CH.
Jarrod and the newly arrived NYC Boutique Manager, Jesus Mũniz. He jumped
right into our group and was very interested in the collectors and thier
opinions.
Hopefully I am not stealing Jarrod's thunder, but he got a new IWC last
night. This may be a preemptive reveal. Note the old box that we no longer
see from IWC. For full disclosure, his acquisition came from my collection.
I was not wearing it so much any longer and it deserved a new home from
someone who appreciates the history and tradition of the watch..
The new arrival is the 3711 Doppel Chronograph.
Jarrod had his eyes on my 5002 slow beat in addition to the 3711
