Fantastic pictorial of the fair!
Really enjoyed it.
Also, thanks for the coverage of some of the lesser known independents that have some impressive offerings.

Jocke,
Excellent pictorial, as always! Again, we want to thank you and Tony for your generosity. We had a great time and it was a huge pleasure to learn about the smaller unique brands. Hope to meet up again soon, my friend!

Leaving Interlaken today and heading back to Zurich, then home tomorrow. I'll be sure to do a complete Swiss watch report. Just don't expect the same quality y'all have come to expect from Jocke!!

Thanks so much Jocke!

I thoroughly enjoyed your report.

Congrats again on your new watch. The Quickindicator model also looks very interesting.

Some nice designs - I noticed many manual wind movements among the new models. Did you think more than usual vs. automatic movements?
