    No edicts, no fanfares for the opening of the boutique in Rome.

    I was just accidentally passing by and there it was, open!

    The gentle Personnel told me this new challenge officially started this monday.

    The place is so small but very cute.

    I've had the chance to try some new stuff on, gently helped by the Boutique Manager and her assistant. I could bet, this flagship store would win the prize for the most beautiful women working in a IWC boutique, if such a contest took place.

    They're both new to this business, I wish the best of luck to them and to the guy also working there, don't know exactly why, I have foggy memories of his presence LOL!

    The boutique already has most of the novelties available, I've tried the Porto chrono and the 40mm Inge on.

    That's all from now, more yet to come in the near future!

    Well, this white dial Portuguese Chronograph Classic is without competition right now, at least in my mind. What a watch!

    Kind regards,

    Whole heatedly agree with Alan, you tease us about the beauties and somehow fail to capture and show the two on the forum. Shame on you Roberto! :-(

    I am sure some other forumers would enjoy soft curves over polished metal. LOL!

    Good news for our Italian friends. I hope that you enjoyed the new Portuguese Chrono as much as I did during its short time on my wrist.

    Roberto, OK. So now that you have me on standing on my head...

    ....does it mean, that I will still need to rely on Giovanni to get to Rome and share a proper "right side up" photo shoot for us of all the beauties in that me boutique?

    Go back - bring Argiris over from Greece to support you - and post a proper photo reportage s.v.p!

    Why do they always have these openings after I visit. I will be depending on you, my brother, for further updates. It's another good reason to get
    Ms. D thinking about Rome again!

    Excellent! Meet you, and hopefully, MF at the boutique for a doppio next month!

    Hopefully the staff won't be too tired of seeing you by them time I get to town.

    I'll be on the way in autumn, Roberto. I'm just reflecting to visit first when arriving from the northern province, the bronce colummn on the forum or the boutique. ;)

    Thanks for sharing. :)

    Excellent!

    The Forum is not really far from the boutique, once you've done with the boutique you'll have still plenty of time to see the ruins! LOL!
