GTG: #LAWatchGang Special Evening with Hartmut Kraft (Part II)

Brian H. December 24, 2014

This is Part II of the #LAWatchGang special evening with Hartmut Kraft.  For the first half of the evening, please see Part I.

The night was far from over!  H had arranged for a nice dinner at The Bazaar by José Andrés inside the SLS Hotel Beverly Hills.  This restaurant is a must try for anyone visiting Los Angeles.  A tapas style restaurant that is totally unique and simply delicious.  Deconstruction and creativity turns every traditional dish into amazing tasting art creations.  Seriously, everything I ate was WOW... even the bread with tomato.  This is a place that will not disappoint your taste buds.  Now, as if playing with all those crazy watches at Feldmar and devouring all this amazing food was not enough, H also brought with him a few Maurice Lacroix timepieces so we could enjoy them during dinner.  Excellent food paired with magnificent watches... now THAT is an evening to remember. 

The Rolex Daytona was on duty for that night.

Maurice Lacroix Masterpiece Gravity in PVD.

Glycine and Maurice Lacroix

Before you continue scrolling down, get some napkins.  The following photos will make you drool!

Jamón and pan con tomate.

Guacamole dumpling with fried jicama.

Caprese salad.

Not your ordinary Caesar salad.

Egg and ham.

Cannot remember what this was, but it was delicious too ;-).

Steak with a side of Gravity.

Cheesesteak sandwich.

Chicken croquetas.

Risotto.

And then there was dessert...

Special thanks to Hartmut Kraft for arranging this special evening.  On behalf of the #lawatchgang, we had an amazing time and hope to see you more often at our GTGs!

Omega Apollo 11 50th Anniversary visits Malibu. The Hulk at the Avengers Headquarters. Color coordinated 💙🤍💙🤍 Slowly started to eat out again… not sure that I really missed dining at a restaurant that much 🤔. Anyone else feel the same? They don’t make them like they used to. There is something special about white dial PAMs 😍. Kabobs 🍢 and watches⌚️.
Enjoying my new @montawatch (@everestbands) leather watch roll. Top quality all around, highly recommended. A pair of beautiful AP watches hides inside… Which color should I go with? ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 The Chanel J12 GMT. Happy Saturday everyone! Not your typical watch ☠️ One of my favorite PAMs, the 968.
Best part of the Prism watch case from @delugsstraps? The cover also serves as a pad!  Perfect place to lay your watches on once you take them out of the holders. 3 very different black watches 🖤🖤🖤. Which one would you choose? I still think that this variant of the Speedmaster is gorgeous 😍. My Luminor case trio... 911, 563, and 416. Safely stored in the @delugsstraps Prism case. Who knows which one of these three is a regular production model? I’ll stick to this Speedmaster 😉.

Perfect Saturday. #friyay at the happiest place on earth. Thank you @jujube_intl for the inner zip pocket. I passed bag check with flying colors. Totally didn't expect it too, cuz who checks bags at the movies still? 🍫🍫🍫 ps. Buncha crunch + popcorn is the best combo. #yourewelcome I was all set for the movies with my #tokiperky light and popcorn shirt. 🍿 @babyofawis opening her eggs last Easter. Happy Easter to all that celebrate!  The #ittybittybe is perfect to hide a couple eggs for the little one. 🙊 Korean AYCE. 😝 Happy Saturday! At the dentist office. 😩 The new spring cups from #Starbucks make me want to switch my bag to something a little lighter. A little unikiki 2.0 perhaps? 🤔 Bon voyage, @toysofawis 😘. Happy Friday, everyone! We are excited for the Beauty and the Beast movie! @babyofawis wanted to hang her belle on my #fairytella bag. #tokidokixjujube #jujubeintl #bff 😥 #mondate Taco o'clock. 🌮 Taco dirty to me. 😏 Happy Friday! 🌮🌮🌮
