An impromptu London gathering
By: Ubik : February 24th, 2012-01:04
This week a few of us managed to get together for a few stolen hours indulging ourselves with some beautiful gems and conversation. Guest of honour was Blomman who made a flying visit to our rainy shores. A few of us die hards wangled some time off in the...
This is what I call "the gathering"

Ubik (Is from the Philip K. Dick's book?), Thanks for sharing. I believe that over the table there are the most desired watches around (bar Vlad's) Cheers, Nilo

You make me feel very bad to have missed that GTG, Eitan.
By: amanico : February 24th, 2012-03:37
Was on to write you and Joe and Imran to take some news. But sometimes, real life doesn't allow us to do what we would love to do. I feel a next opportunity will come soon. Anyway, friends, friendly watches, and great moments are always a pleasure to see,...
It´s what I say as a great GTG
By: E.J. : February 26th, 2012-03:22

By: E.J. : February 26th, 2012-12:51
You´ll never walk alone! Hard years, hermano. But the secret is in the adaptation to the change (adaptarse al cambio, en español ) I´m happy because soon I´ll meet again a my dear friends. and thanks for your congrats, my dear wife LOL...
Your name was invoked many times
By: Ubik : February 28th, 2012-09:05
your presence was with us - even if your watches were not. So hopefully we can meet again soon, my friend.
Great summary Ubik.....
By: Baron - Mr Red : February 24th, 2012-04:14
It was indeed a fabulous day. Yes.....10/10 for Bloman for making the trip over...that is true passion.....and most definitely a Bastardo. Is it my imagination, or is Imran's wrist getting bigger?
No, it is not your imagination, Baron.
By: amanico : February 24th, 2012-04:44
Irman is doing very well these days. That is what you need to wear a 372. Best, my friend, and hope to see you soon! Nico
Thanks for the encouragement.
By: TdotBean : February 24th, 2012-08:56
And you are worth ten thousand of me I still have much to learn ... been hitting corners here and there. Regards Tyler
Perhaps we could do a Skype GTG!
By: Ubik : February 28th, 2012-09:06
It would have been a pleasure to see you Tyler - any chance of you coming to the big London GTG?
Never done anything like that before.
By: TdotBean : February 28th, 2012-18:37

And sorry the chair was empty when you took the pictures. It was full later though
Lovely to see you Greg.
By: Ubik : February 28th, 2012-09:07
Glad you could slip into the empty chair. You brought a couple of vintage beauties with you.
Thank you for a great GTG! :)
By: blomman Mr Blue : February 24th, 2012-12:51
Really happy to been able to join – great to meet you all again, my friends! Even if it was a very short visit this was exactly what my spirit needed! Been working too much lately, no time for joining here in the forum, no time for watches… Now I feel ene...
I enjoyed your 'learnings', Blomman ...
By: AndrewD : February 24th, 2012-18:28
It's nice to have our horizons broadened, our preconceptions challenged and our eyes opened. It's the best part of PuristS too; seeing watches through the eyes of other passionate collectors. Andrew
Well...
By: blomman Mr Blue : February 28th, 2012-14:02
With a gang of Bastardo's like this... …you lose yourself! Best Blomman
