路SteveP, ANO (Calibre 11 tag not known) and I are entrants for that. Anyone else?
Sorry, a GTG. Saturday seems a good option.

Hope you all enjoy....I'm not jealous 馃が

Yeah, travel plans are not arranged to the flieger's advantage normally. I once needed to get back to the UK urgently to defend a championship position (despite the work I was paid for ....) and found a flight from Montreal though Gander and Prestwick. At that time a route less traveled. Worked through 馃榾

路Steve and I are planning to get there around midday on Saturday. Brian does that overlap with your plans? And anyone else is welcome too of course.

路Looking forward to the report back!
A great time was had by all, those watches on sale are astounding. The catalogue is a stunning production too.
It was great to meet Brian & Steve, and here's what we brought
The big surprise for me was how good a Paul Newman looks in real life, I've not really liked them before. But if I was going to steal one watch from those on display (cannot afford to buy them) it would be a pre-Daytona chrono.

路Brian/Mike-it was great to see you and I had a fantastic couple of hours.
It was refreshing to be able to talk face to face about GMT complications, cal 15s, 1st execution all-lume hands etc without the other party glazing over! I'm grateful I was able to try on your watches too-they really are superb pieces!
The display itself was awesome, not just amazing pieces but amazing condition too-the auction is going to be VERY exciting to follow!
Absolutely-thanks to Paul and Virginie from Phillips for their help-nothing was too much trouble and, as Paul said, we could have tried them ALL on if we wished-that was tempting but asking for trouble too methinks!
Roll on November......!

Sorry, we were out before 2pm. We understood you wouldn't be there until quite some time later. Had I known beforehand you would be along I would have brought my copy of the Carrera book and waited ...
... an author of motor-racing books I'm acquainted with says that it is the unsigned books of his that are the rare ones!
Instead I went to take a look at a computer I used in the early '70s and got caught up in the Exhibition Road kerfuffle.
Best,
Mike
