Just leaving the white cliffs

See you guys tomorrow

steveclocks · 25 July 2014, 08:50 PM

Sun is out, AP RO is on your wrist, nothing can stop you now Kevin my friend !
Looking forward to see you ! I am sure you'll have fun meeting the Belgian lot

And I know Stijn will be jealous not seeing your RO as he is a big AP fan (but he can't join us as he is on holiday with is girlfriend- the silly boy

)

Suprageex · 25 July 2014, 09:04 PM

This is shaping up to become, once again, a great event!!

OmegaJJH · 27 July 2014, 06:53 AM

Lots of pictures please guys.

steveclocks · 27 July 2014, 06:51 PM

Some of the early birds wanted to have a pre-drink before the actual GTG.
Things went a bit wrong when we were invited by mr. Slaets himself to come in and try on some watches at his marvelous store at De Keysrlei in Antwerp. One should never put watchfreaks like us in a candystore like that. It's all to tempting

Thanks so much to mr. Slaets for making us so welcome and pulling out loads and loads of wristwatches ! Nothing seemed to much, even when some of us (I won't say that it was you Bernard

) wanted to see yet another GOLD watch !
Here are some of my, sorry guys, bad photos.

trying on Kevins' AP RO

Jaeger-LeCoultre duometre in gold, what a stunning piece !

The Cartier Diver

Hublot Ferrari, what a very comfortable watch to wear. Pleasantly surprised

Michaels' double red seadweller.
No words....STUNNING. This one would convince me going vintage

Zorans' Pepsi GMT from the 80's.

Oh, yes there were some humans overlooking all these watches

mailman · 27 July 2014, 07:51 PM

Looks like a great time Geert

Thanks for the pictures

OmegaJJH · 27 July 2014, 09:06 PM

Looks like you all had a blast.

More pics please!!!

There will be some better photos later from the other guys, with much better photographic skills

If I start, then there is no one disappointed with my pics

It can only get better

mluther · 28 July 2014, 04:56 AM

Another incredibly successful GTG. Had a fantastic time. Was great to meet some new people and spend a stunning evening by the marina in Antwerp talking all things watches. Look forward to the next one Guys

Maarten · 28 July 2014, 06:16 AM

Great pictures Geert and Mluther! Had a blast as well!

Going through tons of pictures and will upload them asap.

steveclocks · 28 July 2014, 06:32 AM

Wow Michael, such stunning photographs !!!!
Loved it yesterday, still trying to kick off from it today

goog53 · 28 July 2014, 09:41 AM

Love the GMT ON A JUBILEE! Great watches all around. Thanks for the pics

111forza · 28 July 2014, 10:15 AM

Just back from a great weekend in Brugge and so glad I was able to spend a few hours with you guys in Antwerp on Saturday just a Shame I couldn't stay for dinner(maybe next time). Here are a few pics I took on the day I'll sort a few more when I have a bit more time on my hands
Cheers guys

steveclocks · 28 July 2014, 04:27 PM

Very nice photographs Kev! It was so nice of you to come to Belgium and join in.
Plenty of watches around, that's for sure. We do hope you enjoyed yourself.
Always great to see you my friend

Minos · 28 July 2014, 06:21 PM

Looks like it was a successful GTG....again!
Great pictures too!

Next time, I'll definitely try to be there...

Maarten · 28 July 2014, 07:20 PM

So as promised here are a couple of my pictures. I knew there was going to be plenty of shooting power at the scene, but couldn't resist taking the dslr with me. Unlike others (Geert, Aaron and Mluther) I was to lazy to get my ass out of the chair. So I pretty much shot just the watches that were laying in front of me and let the others do all the hard work

I probably did not even cover every watch that was present and we even forgot to do a tableshot with ALL watches.

So sad it is all over now ... but looking foward to the next time to meet you all again!!

Maarten · 28 July 2014, 07:23 PM

Part II

Cru Jones · 28 July 2014, 07:50 PM

steveclocks · 28 July 2014, 09:51 PM
