iW and IWC in Hong Kong: PuristS' Dream Come True
By: Jester (registered) Saturday, March 8th, 2008 - Photo Nav: View All 1 photo(s)Last week a bunch of purists had the pleasure of being the guests of IWC & iW magazine for an evening of fine wine, great food and amazing conversation!
As seen from the pictures, IWC brought along the vintage museum pieces from Schaffhausen, which are certainly eye openers for all the IWC afficianados.
Some of you may know already, this collection would serve as a great prelude to the new releases in SIHH next month.
We also had the pleasure of having Herr. Hannes Pantli from Schaffhausen for the evening who was kind enough to give us an excellent presentation on the history of IWC and more importantly, background for various vintage pieces. As someone who has been w/ IWC for more than 20 years, Herr Pantli's insights for the past and future of IWC were particular interesting, to say the least. His passion for the brand was evident in his candid conversation and as a long time admirer of the brand, I'm THRILLED to meet a passionate insider like Hannes.
Thanks again to Etienne, Jonathan, Rachel from IWC HK and Anna & Alfred from iW for this wonderful evening.
