Mein Parma Report...................(Lang;)

[philipp]

Es war mal wieder SUPER

Life is beautifull in Italia, we all know that food, women & watches are of the finest quality.
This time I first went to Bologna to meet up with my good friend Peppo, after a very relaxing
morning downtown, we drove together to see what will be on show this time at Parma exhibition.

Before continuing my journey, I would like to THANK all my italian friends for their super attitude!!
Everywhere I came only friendly faces welcomed me willing to share their best passion & showing their
latest stunners. Every vintage watchlover should go to Parma to see the enourmous variaty of perfect
watches on display, it's become a absolute must. Besides that, the people behind the watches, are as
always as interesting as the amazing details of their dials. MANY thanks to Gilberto for organising
the magnificent dinner & BIG respect to Francesco for paying for all of us!!! It was simply great to
see the restaurant got filled with one BIG happy family that normally 'fights' for the best deal. So,
respect to you all, specially as Bas, Detlev, Alex and me where only non italians to join you. It was
for me a big honour again to party with you guy's !!

Back to the show, it presented even more rare & interesting Rolexes then last edition. Never seen so many
Big Crowns and I lost the count of the Daytona's in all variaty, some with rare double name i've never seen
before. Happy faces everywhere, vintage is more then alive, much better then last Parma edition. Rare quality
sells in a second, prices are again strong but stabil. Perfect to see all positive passion for our beloved brand!

Time to show some watches, here we go, fasten your seatbels for the rollercoaster my camera had ;-)























Best salami i've eaten, thanks to the postman ;-)

Again, MANY thanks to you all!!! See you soon & as I told you all, you're invited to come
to 19 March Maastricht Event or if that doesn't work out, come to 14 May Geneva Event instead ;-)

Back in rainy Holland the only thing i'm thinking of today is, why am I not in Parma?!?!

Best regards,
