Panerai 2020 Exhibition...

Yesterday I got invited to an exhibition. It was an exhibition held by Panerai and it was held at Wotancraft. It was not a big gathering but it was an interesting exhibition. 

Sadly I did not manage to take any photographs of watches as some of the watches on exhibit were prototypes and we were not allowed to take photographs of the watches.

However I did get a couple of photographs showing how some of the new cases from Panerai is made and the technology that goes behind making those cases. I do have to say it was very interesting.

Here goes....

Apologies for no photographs of watches but I have to say that from what I saw, I have to say that Panerai have indeed step up their game and the overall quality and finish of the watches have indeed improved from the days when I was collecting Panerai. Who knows, maybe one day I will get back into collecting Panerai again. 

IWC Exhibition...

I was most fortunate to be able to arrange my recent holiday to coincide with the IWC Exhibition held in the Pavilion, Kuala  Lumpur, Malaysia. 

I actually got to the exhibition on the last day. Phew...

The Exhibition space was not very big but it was sufficient. 

The Silver Spitfire...

Nice..

Another view...

What was on in the exhibition? Well, the focus of IWC for 2019 is the Pilot Collection. Trust me, I was very very tempted...

Photographs: IWC

These were some of the models IWC released at SIHH 2019. I have to say the watches are very nice.

Anyway on to the exhibition...

Lots of modern IWC Pilots watches to view..

The vintage pieces.. I do miss my IWC mk XV and Spitfire...

The Vintage Big Pilot watch... in its 55mm glory.

Overall it was a nice exhibition.

Maurice Lacroix Exhibition....

I was very fortunate to be able to go to the Maurice Lacroix Exhibition while on holiday. It was 1 of 3 exhibition I managed to go to, the other being the IWC Exhibition and the last was the Marvel Studios: Ten Years of Heroes Exhibition. 

Anyway the Maurice Lacroix Exhibition was basically to introduce new watches in the Aikon Collection. I have to say the watch is very nice.

The Exhibition was held at Bangsar Village in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It was a small exhibition but nice to see the watches they had on display. Sadly I did not take many photographs.

The Maurice Lacroix Aikon Venturer 43mm watch. Nice.

The Aikon Automatic Skeleton.

The Art of Time Exhibition

Recently I had the opportunity to visit The Art of Time Exhibition by Swiss Watch Gallery in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia. A nice exhibition with a number of brands. Sadly I did not have much time there. Perhaps next year. Anyway, here are some shots of the novelties on display at the exhibition.

The Tudor Heritage chrono, black, gray and blue. Great to be able to see and compare the models.

A closer view of the boys...

Spent most of my time at the IWC stand, thanks to the guys at the booth. You know who you are. Thank you.

The Portuguese Hand-wind, I believe this is the 8 days power reserve version.

While I never liked the Power Reserve display on the dial, on this watch....

Big Date complication.
