SIHH Behind the Scenes: Day 2, Overheard at the IWC Party
Andrew McUtchen“The reason they became World Cup winners in 2014 was because the German national team did a watchmaking course at IWC in 2004 to learn patience.” – Georges Kern
“I know Nico’s here. Just because I’m a year older than you doesn’t mean you’re going to get me this year!” – Current F1 World Champion, Lewis Hamilton
Georges Kern to Christoph Waltz: “Now Christoph, you will be the villain in the new Bond movie, yes?”
Christoph Waltz: “You seem to know more than me Georges….”
Georges Kern: “Well James bond is wearing a brand I don’t remember the name of, but Christoph, you will be wearing an IWC, can you make sure you beat him this time?”
Georges Kern to Emily Blunt: “The Portugieser has become an icon of watchmaking, if you were to name the most iconic actor of our time who would it be for you?”
Emily Blunt: “Meryl. It would have to be Meryl Streep. She is fearless and changeable. It is all Meryl.”
