of caviar... I liked your honest and self-reflecting comments to the complicated watches. They once more testify for the importance of hands-on experience. Thanks for the efforts to put this together. Magnus

Something must have gone wrong... I DID sent you an SMS asking for a date, I even have been on the booth together with Beat Weinmann----Now I will have to visit you in Geneva, right? Such a pity! Cheers, Magnus

We did not meet

seeing the diver. To think that the depth it can go to is greater than the Rolex DSSD is crazy. Best regards, George

Some really nice watches... I liked the Classic Fussion Chronograph - a classy watch from HUBLOT is something new. Was nobody shown a standard, black ceramic UNICO ?? P.S. I apologize, but my promised interview with Mr.Biver was not possible.

promised interview

 
 By: jcbiver : April 2nd, 2011-08:25
