Q: How did you get into watch collecting?

Passion for mechanicals things, I believe. Also, I am Padi Dive Master. In my early days we do not count with dive computers, we had to use a watch, and common sense… a lot of that. A good watch was: your life.

Q: What was the first watch you ever owned?

A casio! One with a little game on it. A battle between a boat and a submarine! That’s was awesome.

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

My Casio Illuminator. In one night dive, I used like my dive computer backup. Well, the computer failed… and this inexpensive and underrated watch, literally saved my live.

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

Watch collection is a journey. As long you keep slowly, more enjoyable it will be.

Q: What brands have been getting your attention lately?

Omega, Tudor and Christopher Ward
