With watch makers from switzerland flying in , you get up close and personal with them. I saw Mr Felix baumgartner , *gasp* the guy behind the URWERK watches, and hell, was I tempted to go up and get a picture with him. His 'hammerhand' watch is but a dream to me. With a pricetag of at least 200k. ...
I, had to privillege to attend a gemology appreciation workshop conducted by my company's gemology director, Mr Mattias Hug
As much as I didn't like to hear it , WORD IS [ DIAMONDs, if thrown or dropped to our dismay onto the ground. MIGHT BREAK]
And you thought diamond strength meant that it was undestructable...
also, The crown of England- has a red gemstone which apparently IS NOT A RUBY. Now her Majesty, please do not be upset.
it was alot of fun, handling the gem stones and learning about the different treatments techniques people use to bring out colors of a gemstone . And about the premiums you pay for an untreated rock. Chopard doesn't treat the gemstones used in our jewellery !

Sometimes I wished I was wendy in peter pan, or alice in wonderland. I'm a huge burton and depp fan, and I reckon the only anti-aging methodology is to have dreams, gun for them, and believe that disneyland is still the happiest place on earth.
