Hong Kong Watch Trade Show Two things about Hong Kong: 1) By day, Hong Kong sucks all colors directly out of the air. By night it vomits them back up in an orgy of rainbow neon.  2) 24 hours a day Hong Kong is an orgy of food.  I was in Hong Kong for a watch trade show. It's the second largest fair of its kind after Basil. A bit overwhelming to say the least, but very educational.....  ...and enjoyable thanks to my host, Mr. Sato.  |
