There was a bunch of vintages on display (Carrera, Autavia, Silverstone, Monaco, dashboard timers), but they were placed in separate cabinets from the new models: a pity because it would have been interesting to see a direct face-to-face comparison to see the evolution of the models after a few decades.
Lots of audiovisuals, and a repeated strong message to recover the heritage of good old racing times.
Usual Milan trendy crowd, nice bubbly and a bunch of hostesses that really got some legs..

Nice to see if it comes to your home town

: Interesting to see the contrast between old and new, vintage and
: modern . . . the newest in automotive technology and the oldest
: of the Heuers!!

: So were there vintage watches on display, or only images of some of
: these old ones? [As an aside, it is a bit of a shame that some
: of these vintage ones don't have the correct hands, etc.]

: Thanks again for sharing the report and photos from this event.
