I will especially happy to welcome Society members at this historic and groundbreaking event. The symposium website home page will provide an overview and direct you to additional pages about the event, its speakers, etc. There are many important past collectors of clocks and watches, and our speakers are possibly the best in the world to discuss some of them. An associated exhibit will feature more than 200 single-owner collection auction catalogues and books. Please contact me for additional details and information. Hope to see you there.
Hi, what collectors will be featured in this symposium?
Regretfully, I’ll be unable to attend as I’m completely immersed in bankruptcy proceedings for latest failed venture.
Hey what about me?
Will incomplete movements be considered for the exhibit?
I have some neat example I’d like to share.
Hi, are pets permitted to attend this event? I am incapacitated and would like to send my cat Frankie II as my delegate. Her mother, Frankie Weiss I, was the only non-human to ever hold membership #167825 in the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors – a TRUE achievement!!!
Hello, does my previous role as ED qualify for gratuitous entry to the symposium?
It’s only fair – I scored a lot of BIG wins for Columbia!
