Thanks for sharing this conversation

Thanks for sharing this conversation MichaelC. I had the pleasure of meeting Octavio a few years ago during a PuristS trip to visit AP, and it was really nice to see the passion he has for watch design when we spoke with him. And glad to hear about the hints on the Starwheel

AP SIHH 2013: a conversation with Octavio Garcia

By: MichaelC : May 31st, 2013-08:54

Prior to traveling to SIHH, as I confirmed my appointments, I was asked if I would like a private interview with AP Artistic Director Octavio Garcia. It did not take even a moment to accept this incredible offer. As a custom residential designer myself, I...

Fascinating, Michael.

Thank you. Much interesting ground covered, just as you promised. You managed to touch upon several of my favorite APs (Survivor, of course -- and how interesting!) in this interview -- much of what I would have wanted to know had I been in the room. :-) ...

Thanks Respo

I certainly understand the sentiment about not having a new Survivor, and perhaps they never will. The Starwheel is something we are all intrigued by, and I hope it comes to be soon. Cheers, my Friend!

Fantastic Michael, thank you. (nt)

Another interesting interview MichaelC.

I also had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Garcia a few years ago. I think our group was mesmerized looking at prototype drawings and learning about all the details his teams works though on each piece. Thanks for sharing. JerryW

Appreciate it Jerry.

I like to get some different content out on the table, and the interviewees have done a great job at engaging the topics.

Thank you!

Lucky indeed Sir.

I certainly get very excited to see the new watches, but the opportunity to conduct these interviews is super special and meaningful.

Good stuff! Thanks Michael. [nt]

For this interesting read! Mr. Garcia is in the right place at AP!

I agree with you.

In an age where we see many people leave one brand for another, AP & Octavio Garcia seem to have a wonderful and mutually beneficial relationship.
