Q: How did you get into watch collecting?
Via one of my other hobbies (classic menswear)
Q: What was the first watch you ever owned?
An old automatic from the 70's that my grandfather gave me. Sadly, it somehow got lost many years ago and I cannot even remember the brand.
Q: Do you have a watch with a particularly interesting story behind it?
Not really (see above)...
Q: What is one piece of advice you have for someone just getting into watches?
Take your time before making the first more substantial purchase: Get your hands on as many iconic pieces (maybe even homages...) as possible and determine what REALLY speaks to you, once it's on your wrist. Building and refining one's taste early on will greatly reduce the risk of buying unwisely.
Q: What brands have been getting your attention lately?
Maen, Lorier, vintage Cartier, Grand Seiko (of course...)
Q: What is your grail watch and why?
I don't have a grail watch. But I would certainly love to own a Patek 5107 in yellow gold on a bracelet - because at the end of the day, a Calatrava is the ultimate dress watch and I simply love dress watches. If that won't happen, a Cartier Santos Or Massif would do the trick as well 😉.
