Meeting the President of Breitling this evening.

So you know you buy entirely too many GEN Breitlings when you get an invite to have cocktails, hors d'oeuvres and dinner with the president of Breitling USA. They'll be unveiling the new pieces from Baselworld '08 here.

It's limited to 100 people, so I should be able to snap quite a few pictures if they'll let me!

I'm wearing my GEN 6.75 for this occasion. I contemplated wearing my HBB (b/c it's so damn good)

If I can snag some Breitling swag, I'll auction it off and donate the proceeds to the board!

Cheers!

I was invited to a similar event in Charlotte NC. I decided that I would feel some obligation and probably end up buying a watch that I don't need and can't afford so I declined the invitation.

Wow! I hope you got pics and can't wait to hear about the unveiling!

EDIT: I see I'm a little behind here... Nice Nice Nice!!!

Philippe Boney is a great guy. We spent much time in Geneva, lunches, and dinners. My time hangin' with both he and Angelo Bonati were fantastic. BTW, Philippe was president of Piaget before Panerai.

'this provides a little insite to the source of the gen pam items??? ;)

Philippe {BONAY} is a great guy, an excellent watch promoter and industry executive.

Glad to see I'm not the only one "green" with envy. It must be extraordinary to be the select "one" of a few they pick to attend these events.

Looks like I'll have to stop buying my gens on 47th [street] now, eh?
