Title: MWF Mini GTG @ A Journey Through Time VIII
Post by: Gigi on November 25, 2014, 08:28:29 PM
Folks from MWF gather together for min GTG at Starhill Gallery “A Journey Through Time VIII”. In the past it is one of the biggest highlights for folks from MWF to gather together but unfortunately not this year. Most ppl are busy and some pulled up last minute for family matters. Anyway this year event are considered quite small compared to previous years. This year event comprises of mini exhibition set up by retailers and also there is a small area near AP and Sincere where they will be talks on certain topic relating to timepieces and jewellery.

Here the photo of 3 guy who initially met up to kick start the day :Dancing_banana: :Jumping:

Hope you guys  enjoy this simple gtg report. Hope picture will tell thousand words. I would have the say the GTG was great but not the exhibition itself…. Like some have commented, it is just a let down compared to the first two edition. I have no idea what to put into it other some serious swearing :Scolding: :Scolding: :Scolding: :Scolding: :Scolding: :Scolding: :Scolding: :HammerHead: :HammerHead: :HammerHead: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown:

I know right, i am wondering why they are bothering organising. Better still make it a close event for big shot for them to have good time

Wow. Have not been to the event in recent years but I still had good memories from the first and second edition of this event. I noticed that the event is getting shorter and shorter as well. I think the timing of the event does not coincide with the launching of new models hence the lack of lustre and attention.

It is an after-market strap by HIRSCH ;D There is a multi-chain local watch shop by the name *** Jam Tentera that keep this in stock. Sorry I can't put the actual name as it is not allowed by the forum guidelines but PM if you need more info.
