Superlicious!

Not quite superlicious, but it was definitely good.
i like that word, superlicious.
Dinner was definitely enjoyed by all. Only the watches were unable to enjoy the food, but they enjoyed the conversation and being in the spotlight.

...brought some heavy hitters to the event! Not sure I want to get into a competition with them, as they have depth on both modern pieces and vintage, brands and independents. Wish I could have been there -- but our dinner was fun, too! Thanks for your no...

Thanks again for your coming to dinner with me. It was a blast to meet you all in person. Under the very dark light condition, your photos are superb, as usual. Thank you very much again! Ken

It was great to meet you. As for the photos, I've finally decided that for restaurant settings my P&S works at least as well as the big Nikon -- unless you crank the ISO through the roof on the Nikon, seems that you have two choices: either the pictur...
Nice Watch Photos!

The food was quite good, although (and I would say very cautiously), I don't think the food was quite as superb as the watches were. Will probably try a different restaurant in the future.
Superlicious!

It was a great time

Glad you enjoyed the brief report! I wish that the photos of some of the other watches had come out, but you can't win them all, I suppose... Best, Gary
You would certainly be more than welcome, Daos!

This gathering was nice because the group was extended a bit beyond the usual suspects -- not that I don't love the "usual" gang, but it was also fun to have some new voices in the round-table discussion and ratings of favorite watches of various types. C...
Yes indeed!

The IWC Doppel is perhaps Richard's best known design -- at least among indie fans who have followed his career! Best, Gary
