    Schaffhausen looks in summer amazing and thanks a lot to Tonny, to IWC people, to all involved who decided to make it this time in August! Amazing watches and great people together with sunny weather, delicious food and beautiful locations!

    It was a great chance to see manufacture again, to meet Kurt Klaus and Hannes Pantli. And we were lucky to have even Chris Grainger-Herr with us.

    And of course a lot of watches!!

    Great time indeed!

    Here some more photos of that wonderful meeting:

    We had a guided tour through the beautiful small town of Stein am Rhein:

    This time's special present from IWC was a photo frame with two original wheels from the movement of the Portugieser Eternal Calendar. How amazing is this?

    It's a wheel from the world's most accurate moonphase display in a mechanical watch (deviation of one day in 45 million years) and the 400 years wheel, responsible to make, that the leap years in 2100, 2200, 2300 etc. are correctly left out or not.

    Thanks a lot to IWC and to Tonny for this unvorgetable time.

    Absolutely fantastic seeing all the Collectors again - and some new faces too.

    There was serious watch talk - and many questions too!

    Thank you IWC and the team for taking good care of us.

    Thanks for all these beautiful photos!

    It was a very nice collectors meeting and the weather was perfect: dry and not hot. Organised perfectly. Many thanks to the IWC team and Tonny!

    Stein am Rhein with very nice and old buildings.

    Why is there this crowd in front of one store? The zoom may give you some hints :-)

    Hope to see you again in good health.
