Los Angeles Cars & Chronos

This is a great event held monthly at the Hing Wa Lee's flagship store in Walnut Ca the owner David Lee has one on the top Ferrari collections in the country so it attracts some amazing cars,mostly hyper cars & super cars & a few classics ,his store also sells some of the top brands & has an amazing Rolex area .Not a lot of vintage watch guys there but a few i chat with a few each time including some journalists form the watch magazines i've talked to, most guys are into the high end modern stuff ,it would be great to get some more vintage watch guys there .Heres some pics from yesterday's show & the last one ,i usually go with a few of my Porsche 911 buddies,not to mention always tons of free goodies including food & drink lots of Rolex catalogs ,hats etc.I'll update this thread with the flyer for the next one if anyones interested

There's nothing humble about David Lee. But that said he has a passion for his cars

I would agree to an extend. Didn't Ferrari refused to sell him certain car because they don't like him as a "collector"?

I think he has more passion telling people how much his car cost than the actual car itself.

I remember watching some vid about his Ferrari collection and he couldn't shut up about how much they are worth now.
