The Story of a collection is something always very interesting, as it describes all the situations you were in, and the processus in which you elaborate it. I try to build my collection step by step. I was lucky enough to sell a lot of Panerai from my col...

Hi Bill, Have you ordered a Jean Daniel Nicolas? If that's the case you've ordered a really fascinating watch. And you're also contributing to the perpetuation of the art of one of a few of my great and real heroes of the modern watchmaking world. I've ne...

I too see Roth as an historical figure in modern horology. It has been a pleasure to communicate with him. He as worked for brands and built a brand, and I think he is quite happy with how things are now, small and manageable. I would love to meet you aga...
