Andrew came up to me the other day and asked me if I'd like to spend the day being shown around the Breitling Manufacture Facility. What do you think the answer was? Here is my itinerary that was sent through: WEDNESDAY 19TH SEPTEMBER 8am depart Birmingham International Airport by private jet from the Eurojet Business Aviation Centre. 11am (local time) arrive La Chaux de Fonds, Switzerland Transfer to lunch Breitling factory visit (taking in the in-house movement factory) 5pm depart La Chaux de Fonds 6pm (local time) arrive Birmingham International Airport (Eurojet Business Aviation Centre) As it’s such an early flight on Wednesday, we have arranged accommodation at the Birmingham Hilton Metropole the night before and would be very happy to accommodate. Hilton Hotel, Private Jet, Manufacture Tour.......should be good. I'll let you know how I get on. |

Thanks for all the wel-wishes guys. happy_chapie wrote: Nice one Richard, Should you be unable to make it, through illness/washing your hair/lack of baby sitter/lost passport, i would be happy to replace you S'funny you should say that: I had a scare on Tuesday night when I couldn't find my passport. After spending over 6 hours searching and turning the house upside-down my wife finally found it in some old paperwork in the loft where it had no right to be. I was starting to think I wouldn't be able to go. I'll take as many pictures as I can, although I'm sure I won't be able to take any in the manufacturing/testing areas. |

Not only pictures Richard. We are expecting a full written report, minimum 3xA4 pages before you touch down back home. And don't forget to tell them what we would like to see more and less of at 2013 Baselworld 2013. We are counting on you Enjoy and let me know if you need anyone to carry your bags for you

To those that receive the honor of the trip comes the obligation to bring the desires of the faithful to the source! |
