Just a quick upload to thank ALL members for joining us this weekend!!!

Most of you have done enormous effort to share your endless passion with us,
some of you are still traveling to get back home again but it's clear to all
of us that this years edition got to another level, not only the outrageous
quality shown that still makes my head spinn, it's become more about the people
behind their watches, the unconditional friendship & enourmous trust we have in
eachother that has gives us a fullfilled warm feeling!!....

My head is still exploding of all the stunners i've seen, the great conversations,
many laughs and mutual respect. It's bizar to see how Bernhard & mine initial idea
of sharing your passion & dedication with others has developed to this international
level. Those quite moment i've had i enjoyed by simply looking around and seeing
everybody so relaxed....

Thank YOU all my friends for making this weekend to yet another unforgatable moment!!






















































Many more pictures from Bernhard & other members will follow the next days...

I just wanted to say THANK you all!!!

See or speak to you guys soon,

Best to you!

Thank you for sharing these pictures with us. It it just amazing to see all these great watches together!

Of course.. not one but two examples of my grail watch!

ugh.

I dreamt I was at a castle somewhere in Europe surrounded by loads of fantastic watches and a cool bunch of guys talking strange languages... and what's really strange when I got out of bed this morning I tripped over a suitcase full of clothes and watches in freezer-bags..!

I think I'm still buzzing... Bernhard and Philipp pulled off another incredible Passion weekend!!

Thanks guys!
