PoT October 2014 - From Switzerland to the Sicilian seaside
Oct 12, 2014,14:58 PM
Long time ago, I've joined an international community of watch lover called PuristSPro, and... No, that's a too long story, I'd better start differently...
3 months ago, in PuristSPro was posted an invitation for a factory visit in Zenith, I've sent my application, and... No, another too long story, let's try a different starting...
Some days ago, I leaved my loved city for an all-new kind of holiday: for the first time I would have the opportunity to meet in the real life some of the Purists, to meet some of the industry leaders and to visit watch factories.
Well, so many stories I'd like to write about, so many pictures I'd like to share with you, but this first post is meant to express my most sincerely thankfulness to MTF (the great coordinator), Mr. Jean-Claude Biver (the extraordinary head of watchmaking at LVMH), Hublot, Fehr and Zenith (the factories that kindly hosted us), and...
...YOU, my amazing 14 fellow Purists with whom I've laughed, eaten and talked about watches&other beautiful things in life. You know, I was sure that every Purists meeting is a very friendly experience and I wasn't disappointed as I've had a very good time with all of you. That's the reason why I wanted to post, at first, some pictures about people plus a picture showing one of the received gift on a Sicilian sandy beach: yes, I've had a wonderful October swim
.
Reports will follow about the factories, the watches, etc.
Arrivederci,
Elio
