Rolex 100 år - Klarlund

[SPACE-DWELLER]

Her er min rapport fra <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.timekeeperforum.com">www.timekeeperforum.com</a><!-- w --> om eventen:

I was invited to a Rolex event at my AD, Klarlund in Copenhagen, on the 21th. of November and was the ONLY one allowed to take pics of some vintage Rolex watches from the private Rolex collection that was lended out to my AD.

Due to security reasons, I was not allowed to post pics before after the 28th. when the exhibition was ended and the watches shipped by, though.

Since we have now passed this date, I would like to share the pictures with you. Also, I would like to thank Klarlund and especialle the store manager, Mr. Stig Andersen, for this awesome and very rare arrangement and his always kind way! :thumbsup:

I also got on tv... just for a short while, though. Stig overheard me talking about the various vintage models and told me that I just HAD to be interviewed by Danish Television who also attended the exhibition. However, since it was only a short spot in the 9 o'clock news, I was only seen shortly on television.

Here are pics of the awesome Rolex collection, lended out by Rolex S.A.:
