Thanks! And yep, that Moonshot has landed on my wishlist too. The red one is from a new British brand called Edward Christopher, this is a great looking watch that they have in a range of colours, the red just really appealed to me.
This show actually had less brands than WorldTimeUK but the venue was amazing plus the eBay lounge and the talks definitely added something different to the event. 100% worth doing next time around.
I really like OOO and the Shaker collection is awesome. Really wish I’d pulled the trigger on a Scotch on the Rocks but I was too slow and missed out.
And yeah, Watches of Knightsbridge had some great pieces there !
Sadly didn’t win in the raffle. Hey maybe next year!
There are a lot of brands in the Alliance now of varying size /scale but seeing some of the releases already in 2023, it’s really gonna be a big year for us brits!
Sadly I cannot make the meet up, I work in retail so Saturdays off are tricky at best, especially at this time of year. I had to book last Saturday as an annual leave day to be sure if being able to attend.
Hopefully in the new year I’ll be able to get to some meet -ups though 👍
Yeah same, I there from 10:30-5:30 and barely got round all the brands as it was. But I heard the word Whisky which lured me into the finsl talk lol.
I’m sure the timing is strategically planned and I’d rather have 2 events in quick succession than only have the one. Both were excellent events, very well run and focused on different types of brands so compliment each other well.
Maybe for next year a WC pin badge could work to recognise fellow members- although I was proudly sporting my British watchmakers pin and a Poppy pin so I run the risk of looking like a fridge door!
I thought it was really good venue with lots of space for socialising . Got to meet lots of great brands and loads of cool people.
Likewise didnt make any purchases but this event has done unspeakable things to my wish list!
