Just back from SIHH and Geneva I would like to share with you my thoughts about 2011 IWC Collectors Forum Meeting. For me SIHH really comes in second order since the dinners and gatherings between the members of this group truly represent what IWC stands for.
I met my friends, seemed to be long life for some strange reason, hear about their families talked about world matters and last but not least IWC Watches. And indeed I had the time of my life talking and listening about our common passion denominator. IWC is a unique company in every aspect. History, tradition, ethics, innovation. Probus Scafusia in respect.
And with a past that summons you to be a part. IWC is always in my mind and changed my life for ever. I would like to say to all the members that attended that I am pleased and honored once again gentlemen to meet and call all of you dear friends of mine. I would also like to thank IWC for the great opportunity. And Michael Friedberg please take a look back these ten years and see how much you have changed our lifes. A thank you would never be enough. IWC and the Forum owes you so much.
It has been my honor and privilege to call myself one of you.

Argiris, On reflection, it is indeed a privlege to be a part of this group and to share great times with you and the others who make this forum what it is. It makes the world seem a little smaller by bridging the distance with common interests. Here is hoping for future get togethers whatever form they may take.

Argiris,Spot on!
Indeed its a great privilege, to be able to say I participated in this event and to have been able to share too the friendships, amongst all the watch talk (and see).
Your words ring true - around the Probus Fusia statment too, and it's almost perplexing to see the clear importance that the role of "the History" seems to play in, and around our passion for this brand. We may be "Friends of the Brand" - but fore sure, the Brand has made "friends out of us".
I second your thanks to IWC, MF and the other forum members for having shared these moments with us.
