Last Friday, WatchTime’s annual collectors’ event returned to South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa, California. The evening included featured exclusive watchmaking events and opportunities to speak firsthand with brand VIPs and members of the WatchTime team. Needless to say, the participating brands made sure to not only bring their most impressive pieces to Costa Mesa, but in some instances even the people who make them.

Guests were given passports stamped by each of the 13 participating brands which included A. Lange & Söhne, Audemars Piguet, Breitling, Chopard, Hublot, Louis Vuitton, Omega, Piaget, Porsche Design, Tudor, Roger Dubuis, and Vacheron Constantin. Later in the evening guests with stamped passports were entered in a raffle to win one of the many prizes, like a rare coffee table book from A. Lange & Söhne, a Porsche Design weekender bag, Piaget pashmina blanket, and South Coast Plaza gift cards.
