    Will there be a collectors meeting this year? Last year I missed the announcement, therefore I decided to keep my eyes peeled this year. I haven't seen a post from Tonny on this subject; maybe I missed it already? Is anything known yet? 

    I'm in California, so I can't just just hop into the car and drive over to Schaffhausen ;-)

    No announcement yet, a little patience, we will communicate soon on the dates.

    Super, thanks, Tonny! 

     

    A related question: I have read (on a different forum) that people have run into expensive difficulties with Swiss customs when entering Switzerland with more than one watch. If I remember correctly, people (watch collectors) got dinged for import fees, some even when crossing on foot at Basel train station to visit the Basel watch fair. It almost seemed like Swiss customs was on the lookout for watch collectors...

    Is there a recommended safe procedure to avoid this, if one wants to bring more than one watch? Or is it better to stick to just one watch, even if it means leaving an interesting piece at home?
