ONLINE WC BRIDGE TO OFFLINE WC EVENTS
What a beautiful coastal California evening! If it wasn't for the opportunities to meet the coolest collectors offline you'd probably never catch me online.
Pictures and online dialog can be interesting but can't really do justice to such a tactile and visual hobby. Last night I tried on a Daytona for the first time and handled Habring2, Omega, A. Lange & Söhne, JLC, Traska, Zelos, Islander, Seiko, Bulova, Movado, Rolex and many other makers.
Grateful to @TheHoroSexual for organizing such a premium event. Great to see old friends like @Mr.Dee.Bater @ckim4watches, and to make new ones as well. Still stalking a few of my favorite crunchers that I haven't met in person yet but hope to in the future. You know who you are!
Hey @Fieldwalker sorry you weren't able to arrive until today but was it really necessary to bring your weather with you!? 😁
Feel free to add pics and tag here and also at the Montage Laguna event within the "Past Meet-Up" tab.
Would Love to see more pics from last night!
I prefer in person gatherings over social media dialog and have a soft spot for vintage watches.
Feeling some venue jealously 😁
Wow, it makes the London meet ups look a little … down-to-earth!

We had many down-to-earth attendees if that counts for anything but yeah...California.

The venue was in deed breathtaking as were a few of the watches.
Seems like a wonderful time together. Thank you for sharing the event.
Wish I could have made it to this.

I thought of you and felt like you'd appreciate the venue! Next time perhaps!

It’s like Mount Olympus!

Yea, we got to get our act together next time🧐
Maybe one day, sadly work inevitably rears it's head, and it's back to the trenches so to speak.
But I get to live vicariously through posts like these!! 😉
Sometimes I wish I would be living somewhere else to be able to attend live meetings. But only sometimes🫡
Looks like a great time, I was so bummed I couldn't make it, but the wife and I had already bought tickets to see the band X down the road in Capistrano last night. To be fair I did try and talk her into a quick stop by on our way to the venue....she wasn't keen on the idea. Hope I get another chance to meet you all some time soon.
Oh man, epic looking event! Bummer I just missed this one
it’s pouring rain here in Seattle right now as I’m about to board a flight to LA.
So I expect it’ll be some cold dark rainy days for a week or so while I hang in your hood 😉
Nice
