 AMCHPR in Shanghai with Guo Ming / AHCI & A.J. Wu (Horological Writer).

Today is a busy day for many watch lovers in China as we ready for travel to Shenzhen tomorrow for the 2019 China Watch and Clock Fair (the 30th fair), but I was blessed that my friend, AHCI candidate watchmaker Guo Ming, still invited me to his new studio/workshop (that he moved in to 3 days ago) to spend some casual friendship time with himself and my other friend, Chinese horological journalist A.J Wu, and to see the new premises, followed by dinner.

I don't know if anyone else has seen this studio, yet,  in China or in the West, but I do have Guo Ming's permission to post these photos, so here we go...

Guo Ming and A.J., chatting at the new workshop...

And just a few photos at the workshop...

Here's a couple more  360s of the workshop:


...and four of us at dinner: Guo Ming by me, young Swatch worker (and student of Guo Ming) "Allen", currently doing Omega repairs for Swatch in Shanghai, and A.J., all of us chomping on some awesome regular/not fancy Chinese food at a nearby eatery...
