wow...excellent job Nazri...Congrats

now I have a face to match your name...

wish I was around to join in..

wonder what was the total number of watches exhibited and its approx.value ..
any coverage by the press on the actual day?
Personal taste and preferences evolve over years, hopefully not 1 full circle otherwise it means we haven't learnt a single thing.

Great event. Just one question. How does the owner keep an eye on his collection with so many people looking plus he wants to go and look at the collection of others? Is there a no-touching policy? Or are they extra security measures?

one of the complaint was that the owner of the watch couldn't walk around much to look at other's collection. We couldn't provide any locker or exhibition case for it would be too costly...

security is always an issue to us. We take measures within our capacities in ensuring the safety but all participants were duly informed that the responsibilities belong to the owner of the collection itself.

On the other note, the organizer were ready to take measure such as locking down the hall, and getting the authorities in case anything happened. All participants have to register with their I.C numbers, and we checked the I.C during registration. We also ran background check on all participants as much as we possibly could.We did refuse a few applications through out the 6 months preparations

Of course the above would be meaningless if something bad really happen on that day. For which we are blessed it did not happen. I would not say , we have done the best, but with our limited resources that is the best we could offer.

I see. Kudos to the whole H4U team on the event. It takes a lot of effort to organise these sort of event so I take my hat off to the team.

this is my first gtg and H4U event. Enjoyed it immensely. Brought all of my collection with me to the show. Although makes it next to impossible to visit other exhibitors (next time I will bring along a friend to be my watch minder!) this format is the best. the though of having locked display cabinets did come to my mind when presented with this problem. however, I realised that the key point of such event it to allow people to look, feel and talk to the owners of the watches to appreciate them. possible solution is to stagger the exhibitors to time slots i.e. allow everyone the chance to see other ppls collections.
