The Appreciation of Finer Things in Life: Modern Horological Masterpieces  1 Comments

Published Sunday, July 23, 2006 by Harry SK Tan |

 

On the 19th of July, on the invitation of IWC, I delivered a presentation to 40 odd young clients of Union Bank of Swizterland. The presentation was titled "The Appreciation of Finer Things in Life: Modern Horological Masterpieces". Amazingly, my powerpoint file came up to over 40mbs and over 180 slides. This was mainly due to the several short clips on IWC such as the Portuguese Perpetual Calendar. In addition, more than 70% of the slides were photographs of watches.

Nevertheless, for those who attended the presentation who wanted to review the material from my presentation, here is the edited PDF version reduced to a downloadable size (albeit still over 1 mb in size). Anyone else who is interested to see the file, are welcome to download the file and have a look. Please note - I am not a professional watch expert - so please exercise your best personal discretion when considering the information in it! CLICK HERE to download the presentation.
