Thank you Kip!
Thank you Kip!
My travels brought me to Nashua, NH and I was able to visit the showroom. Kip took an hour from his schedule to talk about the brand, watches, and life in general. Highly recommended as a stop should you find yourself in the Northeast US.
Thank you for your time sir.

Re: Thank you Kip!
Any pressure to purchase? Or was it truly an informational and brand consideration conversation?
Re: Thank you Kip!

Re: Thank you Kip!
I didn't ask if it was a hard sell. Expectation probably would have been a more appropriate term than pressure. Was trying to better understand if someone should wait until they are ready to pull the trigger on a purchase before they were to make an appointment. Our if can truly be a discovery and learning session.
Re: Thank you Kip!
Very low-key. Informative, relaxed, nice. We talked Swiss movements, the ETA ebauche controversy, etc.

Consider it an information station- real world version of the forum.

Re: Thank you Kip!
Thank you Karl. It was great meeting with you today.
Maybe on your next visit I can squeeze a purchase from you.

An hour spent with Kip would constitute a great day out in my book.

Re: Thank you Kip!
It was definitely a neat experience- high end showrooms are not my typical operating environment. I am grateful for the gift of his time.
