    This weekend my house was bustling with IWC chatter! My two house guests and I spent an enjoyable three days yakking, fondling, winding, wishing, prognosticating, and passionately consuming IWC and more IWC.

    And one of the rarest sitings was these three together in the wild:

    Terry and Larry are still under the impression that Richmond is a subsidiary of Richemont, so they like to make the pilgrimage to Schloss Herring.

    We were talking about how watches, in particular IWC, have made such great friendships possible, and they are not limited to the US. Our friendships encompass the world wide collector family of IWC.

    We can only hope all of you had such a great weekend.

    Larry, Terry, and Nelson

    Every time I see the boutique AT, it makes me hate myself for selling mine :( :( :( ...

    Keep them forever! They look great!

    Great collection of IWC's and friends. I am surprised you are still standing after having T-bone around for a weekend.

    Nelson, Larry & Terry,

    3 cheers for the AT grouping. One of my favorite editions. I can only "Fantasize" what it was like being there.

    Thanks for the triple play....Andy

    Looks like you all had a Fanta-stic weekend - you need to be careful not to cross the beams though - was looking very close and dangerous in the wrist shotHad to get the puns in, apologies to everyone but was the best I could come up with humour wise on a Monday morning:)

    great to see all your smiling faces, and I can feel the giddy excitement all the way from Hong Kong - and like Kevin I am wondering when Nelson is pulling out his reveals ???

    Larry - that last pic is the classic 'Larry shot': group pic done DIY with a camera in Larry's hand, and Larry always gets the angle perfect.

    Gentlemen, I had a wonderful weekend but nothing to compare to the camaraderie and hardware that you three had going on, LOL!!!!!!!

    The Orange accent AT is an amazing variation of an already beautiful watch.

    Thanks for sharing!!!!!

    Great collection of watches but Terry please purchase no more clocks in Hamburg.

    It is exhausting for me.

    Man, it looks like the three of you got dressed together! Same hats, shirts, pants, and of course where else could we see three of those AT's?

    Looks like a great time!
