I am building a collection of unique complications. I know it sounds like the way you start a watch museum not a personal collection. I have a Tourbillion, Retrograde, a GMT, Moon Phase and a Spring Drive. I am looking to acquire a chronometer, a mechanical altimeter/barometer watch, a world timer, a minute repeater and my holy grail is a chain fusse.
I enjoy fun watches and conversation starters which is why I have a breathtaking Royal CasiOak which looks similar to an AP watch which costs $74,800.00 more than mine. I am a believer that fashion watches have a place in this world. Fashion brands have nothing to lose when taking a risk on a new shape or style. They can design outside the box unlike Rolex who changes the dial color or makes a left handed watch because they are afraid of failure. I just wish fashion brands wouldn't use junk movements and price them as if they hadn't.

Damn, all I ever needed to turn pro was an over priced wrist watch and I kept investing in lighter bicycle parts.
