    So it came to be that four forummers gathered at HK Flagship Boutique @ 1881 Heritage when Tracy / Kokoro flew in to indulge in some of Hong Kong's finest watches and watch places this weekend --- it was an absolute blast guys and great seeing Tracy again and catching up with SC and Felix. The 'watch-a-thon' ended at 3 in the morning and I just woke up, all ready for lunch now :)

    Shing,

    I understand. It's bad enough when I visit my AD by myself. But when you have three enablers with you it is difficult to resist. LOL

    Great group and great watches. I guess Tracy took a long 4th of July holiday.

    No one can blame you,Shing.

    The expressions on the four of you,says a thousand words!

    As a proud and extremely satisfied owner of my IWC Caliber 89 there is a common bond among this forum,is that we have a passion for the IWC as a watch brand and as a company...the dedication of the workmanship and precise execution of each watch design that is unique from the competitors.

    The look on your face is priceless and it was exactly how I felt when I finally picked up my watch in person. It is the sheer sense of joy and relief in knowing that I have succeeded what I set out to do which means more than anything else of monetary value.

    Congratulations and wear it in good health.

    Regards,
    Simon

    With four collectors there I am staggered there were not at least two trigger pulls!

    Shing, now go buy that blue dial that you have been eyeing!
    As I commented on Facebook, time for all of you to move the GTG to NYC.
    Great photos.

    Talk about "Bad Company!"

    4 bad boys on the loose in HK. I'm surprised you didn't pull out the plastic last night.

    Was that a 3705 in the background of the box shot?
