What a great weekend! I invited Bernardo and Frank with their wifes to my
house to say thank you for their support during my purchase of my vintage
Panerai watch in july. I also asked Ralf Planer, one of the SIHH task force
from april to be my guest. And of course I invited Mr. Roessner from Panerai
to be again guest in my house, after he was it for the first time during a trip
between two Panerai dealers in Germany, a couple of weeks ago, having a
short coffe break.

All came to my house, having a nice barbeque. I was glad to welcome all.
I was proud to welcome a »special guest« for the total surprise of my invited
guests: Francesco Ferretti, who came by car over the alps to join the BBQ!
At the same weekend he was present at a vintage watch fair in Furtwangen,
located three hours by car from my home town...

Indeed another highlight for me in my Panerai / paneristi passion lifetime!
Much more than collecting watches, much more than only contact by mail
or the forum. Real friendships are very important. All came privat and for fun,
we left business and work behind for a couple of hours.

My guests came from Spain, Italy, Munich, Karlsruhe and Nauheim...
good to see them again in only ten weeks at the P-DAY#2 in Cologne!
Thanks all for coming, it was my pleasure to have you as guests & friends!
