Wisdom & Experience: Learning from the Experts
Read full piece here:
Living vicariously through someone else is great, right? You don’t get to enjoy the wins they are having, but you don’t have to take the hits of defeat either. So maybe not an example of win-win, but if you don’t know what you’re doing and you’re a little (or a lot) risk-averse, then this is a space you may also spend a lot of time in.
I very much enjoyed each article that Thomas put out during his journey to start his own watch brand - Venustas Per Constantiam (VPC) Watches. “Building a Watch Brand” is a wonderful way to feel the experience that was starting this brand. From a concept to fruition and now hoping that all continues to go well. The series of 13 articles helps enlighten those who think, “Hey, I could start a watch brand.” I do think that would be fun to do one day… and playing with assembling a watch is helping with scratching the itch, as it were, but rather than a horror story, it’s really a way to help avoid certain pitfalls. However, there’s much that cannot be shared in a few pages of a blog post that leaves much to the imagination.
