Hello 👋 guys,
It’s Alberto here. Italian watch guy leaving in Montreal Canada.
I would like to be one of those guys who say: “I have been always into watches since I was 5” but the reality is that I started living watches with my first job in Pharma Industry. I always remember one of my mentor wearing beautiful watches. First it was a submariner 16610 then he impressed me with a 15202 white dial.
He was with me when I bought my first Rolex in 2016, it was a 16570 black dial 1994. After that I was immediately “affected” by the disease 😂
In less than 5 years my wrist saw a 16600 (X2 actually 😆), a 216570, a 16710, 116610LV, 116500LN, 126710…I know..but I am not ashamed in telling the truth: I was following more other ones tastes and hypes rather then mine.
I believe horology it’s a journey; full of mistakes and learnings. My recent discovery is that I am more pleased to put my name in the list of ADs and waiting for the famous “call”.
That’s why right now my collection is just made by pieces I collected through waiting list (except for a beautiful white 16520).
Right now this is where I stand:

124060
126634
116518LN
Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Hesalite 3186
Zenith Stellina
Panerai 915
