What can I say, i'm still dizzled from all the great watches & great friends i've seen.
TOP Passion comes together during auction weekend in Geneva, this time I went together
with my good friends Detlev & Bas, soon Eric Ku from LA joined us to go to the previeuws
& sales of the 4 auctionhouses. Great party @ Christies on Saterday evening where everybody
came together enjoying the drinks & interesting collectors / dealers from around the world.
Even had the change to have a great conversation with Mr.T Stern about their physosophy...
I imho managed to score to best Rolex around that was for sale as i showed you guys yesterday ;-)
Again I learned a lot! this time we took more time to analyse the offers that where on sale, very
usefull it was to have our watchmaker friend Bas with us, think he had the time of his life.....
Great conversations with those passionated guys i've met over the years and even more interesting
discussions about details, opinions, trends and a lot about prices. This time not to many great
watches around outside the sales...some spectaculair ones ( sorry not possible to show them online)
But as Eric likes to say; "at the end of the day" everybody was happy about the results, I noticed that
"all original condition" remains keyword No.1 & I was surprised about the fact that most of the big
players are not totally aware from what's happening online, some still underestimated it but also realise
that the power of the forums can break up your business, fair or unfair, on has to be prepared.
After a breathtaking roadtrip to Gstaad, we finally managed to come home safe after having terrible weather,
Now let the picture say the rest, THANK you to those i've met, it's was an incredible ride again!!
& some Iphone scans...
and finally home...home sweet home ;-)
See you guys next time!
