Well what to say..... after last year.... what could we wish for?
But why worry?... with those great guys joining in, a great place and fantastic weather again.
What more could we have wished for?

Thank you guys... for all the energy, passion and friendship you all shared in those 24 hours of pure watch-porn!
What a feeling. Philipp and i are still high... flying. And i still see all these special looks in the eyes... of total amaze, like a child in the toy factory... WILLY WONKA-moments and almost disbelieve ....

What a great experience!

Again guys.... thanks so much for all the joy and positive energy.
As we are so happy to have you. And by talking one on one.... it's all getting much easier... then the communication on forums some times

And i am most impressed by the trust we have in each other and gentleman behaviour among us.
The most valuable quality!

Big respect in the group and no need to display. I really felt good! And feels like a special bound for me...

but where are the other 7,000 photographs you took..?

Absolutely f-a-n-t-a-s-t-i-c... you captured the atmosphere beautifully!!

Thanks Bulli for sharing with us..

great job, pictures are great ! it was an incredible meeting as they say "no comment", I still feel dizzy

And so nice to learn to know you....

Hope to meet soon again!...

at your face when we arrived and you saw the watches and collectors! "Is this normal?? Does this happen more often??"

Great that you came and brought your passion and some awesome watches:-)

That has to be a record for the best collection of vintage Rolex EVER.

This weekend I checked VRF several times in anticipation of GTG photos and you guys didn't disappoint. The big crowns were the highlight of the photos IMHO and I wish a couple more could have been added - mine.

Congratulations on what had to be a special gathering for all of you and thank you for sharing with us mere mortals. LOL

Well done guys!!
