Just finished watching. Just as much of a treat as the first one.
The AD salesman he refers to at the NYC boutique is the guy who got me my Daytona. He is an amazing guy! |

“I don’t want the money. I want the watches. That’s how I know I’m a collector.”
Seems like he’d be a cool guy just to hang out with for an evening. Thanks for sharing the video. |

Watched this morning as well, very cool and laid back and honest interview. I like his passion for watches. He would be fun to have a beer with.
I like how he mentioned he had to call his business manager to "approval" to buy some of the watches. Sounds like he has his head on straight for someone in the lime light. |

Love Talking Watches and this one was knocked it out of the park. Ridiculous watches and passion!

Few things more enjoyable than watching someone follow their passions. Thanks for sharing.

He is a watch geek, into all the minutiae.

He has a great collection. Despite paying lip service to "It doesn't matter what your collection costs" I find him and Clymer a bit snobbish. Especially describing a 5164a as a "short-cut" to building a collection
Just as fine wine is still an alcoholic beverage, "serious watch collecting" is still conspicuous consumption. Some people choose to learn about the history, movement, finishing, etc. -- if they enjoy that, more power to them. If people want to buy luxury watches (or get drunk, for that matter), I'm not hating. But be upfront about it, don't cloak it in pretension |
