Since my flight from Las Vegas to Philadelphia was canceled due to the big snow dump on the East Coast, I had an extra day to walk the town and do some watch gawking at the many watch emporiums here.
Here is a brief travelogue of my day in Las Vegas together with some necessary IWC watch content. : ).
The IWC Boutique is in the Palazzo Hotel Shopping Center.
The area outside the Boutique has a great waterfall where the guests stop to take pictures before watch shopping.
I only brought one IWC for this trip, the 5002 BP. This shot has the Venetian Hotel’s Doges Palace replica in the background. The Venetian is connected to the Palazzo.

After my visit to the IWC Boutique I stopped in a few other watch shops and Casino’s to complete my day on the Las Vegas Strip tour. I was unaware I have a Casino named for me here….LOL.
The Caesar’s Palace Forum Shopping Mall
One of the major to be unnamed watch stores in Caesar’s had a couple of special edition IWC’s on display. The RG white dial BP and a RG ardoise dial Potoguieser Automatic. The latter is beautiful, imho.
The rest of my day’s tour:
Caesar’s Palace and the Bellagio:
BP enjoying the view here:
Paris, Paris Casino
The Wynn and Encore that share a great shopping area as well. But no IWC were sighted here.
It’s close to Chinese New Year, I assume, as this major dragon towers above the Wynn’s lobby.

From what I've seen of news photos of the East Coast snow, you are in a much better clime for the short term...and those beautiful watches!!!! Thanks for the great photos and report, Bill!

Thank you Bill for the great report! Nice to see 'your' casino too! Have you tried walking in, presenting yourself as the owner and ask for the earnings of the day? I guess you could buy a few lovely IWC's then ;-)
