THE event of the year came closer and closer, many hits in the
paneristi forum have been done. I was very excited and prepared
a few things for a perfect day in Cologne like name badges for each of us,
two posters as a present for the staff of Jewellery Rueschenbeck and
of course Mr. Roessner from Panerai Northern Europe, who gave us
a lot of support and positive feedback for planning this. Without his
permission to be able to see the whole collection of Panerai watches
and also very special pieces it would be impossible to make this
meeting successfull. Also I would like to thank our »godfather« Guy
Verbist, who gives us the possibility to meet, talk and just have a good
time, sharing the Panerai enthusiasm at paneristi.com...

Also I'd like to thank my fellow Paneristi Frank, »P61«,
who made all these great pictures on the next pages to save the
impressions of this really great day for the memory of all of us!

Enjoy the next pages and always keep a smile in your mind...
