I know it is last minute, but in case you don't know about it or had forgotten to grab tickets, this a very enjoyable evening of like minded watch enthusiasts, all in one place being exposed to Jeff's sharp analysis of the watch industry as he sees it, and his always entertaining Basel & Geneva SIHH 2009 slide and now, video show.

I think there are still tickets available, check with Amy Bernstein at WatchTime, who organises the event,

The link above will give you all the details. It is held in the City Club, a private club with a gorgeous dining room, which we retire to after an hour & half of mingling and ogling watches brought by the co-sponsoring watch brands. Here Jeff gives his talk during dinner.

I look forward to seeing many of you at the event, it is always a great time and much to learn. One is also able to enjoy other watch fanatics, share favourite watches, speak to industry insiders and generally immerse onself in the watch world for an evening comfortably. As this is Jeff's hometown, we have the pleasure of the first event of several that take place around the country. What started out as a local WIS event in the mid-peninsula, has now grown to this behemoth! Given the expansion, it still though has those familiar faces from the original Chinese restaurant with the "nuclear Lemon Chicken" attending! Very much a local event, San Francisco as a location, it still retains it core N.Cal watch enthusiasts get-together atmosphere!

Highly recommended, again I hope to see many of you there.

Warm regards,

Tim
