A busy week in New York couldn't stop us from hosting another Hodinkee Happy Hour.

L ast month, we carved out time in New York Watch Week's busy schedule for a good ol' Hodinkee Happy Hour at Grotta Local. It was a wonderful way to kick off events like the FHH Watch Summit, Watch Time, Windup, and Indies.NYC—and not to mention—give everyone who was in town a chance to catch up with one another.

The evening was filled with great craft beers, pizza, and even better conversations and watches. If you made it out, thank you so much for coming. If you didn't, keep an eye on our site and Instagram for the announcement of our next Hodinkee Happy Hour RSVPs. Until then, you can enjoy a photo recap of the night and the watches in the room by scrolling below.
