This interview is fantastic. He is one of, if not the most deserving interviewees. I am honored to have met and get to know Adrian.
Thank you Michael for the interview of Adrian. I'm proud to have known Adrian for many, many years, and especially proud to call him a friend!

Thank you Michael for choosing to interview Adrian. He is one of the collectors on the forum from whom I have learned, and it is a pleasure to hear his story.
Thanks Michael, for recognizing Adrian as a collector's collector and his contribution to this forum with his knowledge of vintage IWCs.
A very nice interview with a very fine man.
Adrian is a pillar of the IWC collector community!
Thanks

An excellent interview with a delightful collector. Thank you.
Adrian, Michael, thank you for the interview!
Another excellent piece Michael and Adrian. Give us real world people with knowledge and true passion any day over the celebrity "Ambassadors" - this makes me appreciate IWC and this interest that much more!
I sure hope I get the honor of meeting you Adrian at an IWC event in the near future :-)
Great read, thank you Michael and Adrian! And Adrian, please remember that there are a lot of 'vintage-interested-lurkers' that do read your highly valuable contributions and comments, but hardly ever contribute themselves in the vintage-section of the forum.
Vriendelijke groet,
Bob
