A few days ago I noted that I was flying to the USA for holiday and to collect a few long awaited pieces. I picked up three special watches yesterday that my mother has been holding for many months. F

Headed to the 2014 Watches and Wonders show in Hong Kong at the Exhibition Centre this morning. I wasn't sure what to expect of the event and the journey (given the protests in HK overnight). The jour
