Without Bernard Cheong, Massimiliano Landi and of course Gilbert Cheah who is managing director of Edipresse Singapore, the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie would not have occurred at all. They, along with the nominating committee and jury, deserve high praise for what they have achieved.
More information on the contest soon, and pictures as well.

Logistics, logistics, and more logistics...
By: patrick_y : September 28th, 2009-09:39
