Lume initially
I was attrached the wacth lume initially. But after learning more about the brand and what it has to offer, i brach out into style, ie pilot style, track style and etc. It is a pity sure a nice and good watch is not commonly discuss in this forum.
A philosophical question on watches
Women have their shoes and jewellery. Some men have their jewellery, but really its not many. Instead, men have their watches. What is it about watches that is so fascinating. It goes way beyond the pure aesthetics of jewellery. I am curious what other en...
A kind of coherent excitement?
That it a very difficult question, oe, as each of us certainly as his own good reasons to collect watches. I think that our common point is the pleasure to see it, feel it, wear it, in opposition with the pleasure of the Safe, of course. Then, I will add ...
As a non-collector
I do not view myself as a collector of watches. With no aspirations to collecting many peices nor to pursuing a theme of any kind, I like having and always working towards a very select few pieces that for whatever reason just amaze me. I like the feeling...
What do I get from my watches?
Hi Joe, it´s an interesting question that you raised in your post! If not for pure greed or voraciousness, what is it that I like about my watches? (I also would like to point out, I do not consider myself as a collector in the sense of buying with a...
I fully agree with the above views and would add...

Vaults of Time
I would never want to get to the point where I am living FOR the watch, rather than WITH the watch. At least that's what I keep telling myself. The truth is, I have often approached, and even crossed, that borderline - the borderline of sanity? Then I bec...

An appreciation of all things mechanical and aesthetic?
Certainly from my perspective. I've never worn any jewelry aside from a wedding ring and a watch. I do enjoy having a perfectly designed little machine on my wrist that performs a function while satisfying my love of machines. The aesthetics of a beautifu...
Philosophy or Viseral Thrill?
Over the last 40 years since I acquired my first "good" watch (a 1969 Rolex Submariner) while in Hong Kong, I have had a love affair with the gleaming piece adorning my wrist. I wear very little jewelery; a wedding ring and a watch. Occasionally, cuff lin...
