Q: How did you get into watch collecting?

I'm still not into it, maybe if I had more money.

Q: What was the first watch you ever owned?

A skeleton Rotary.... But I dont count that so an automatic Tissot Gentlemen Powermatic 80.

Q: Do you have a watch with a particularly interesting story behind it?

My Dad was given a Seiko Quartz 6530-5270 for his Mum's wedding by his Nan when he was a teen. He doesn't care about watches at all, he wears one from eBay which cost £9.99 but he has always kept this in a drawer and forgot about it. When he was getting remarried I was talking to him about how I like Seikos and he went upstairs and pulled this out (similar to the ones online but the case is completely square on mine, must be rare). He gifted it to me for his wedding so now I will pass it down to my kid for when I get married haha.

Q: What is one piece of advice you have for someone just getting into watches?

Seiko is your best friend.

Q: What brands have been getting your attention lately?

Lately quite a range, Hamilton Khaki Field, Doxa Sub 600T, Seiko and King Seiko and Studio Underdog.

Q: What is your grail watch and why?

Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional, every day of the week.
