Hi everyone,

So this is my collection and I am now feeling so deeply the power some watch brands have over me.

For instance, I feel I NEED the next watch to be a Rolex, even if I like some Tudor’s models more… Why am I so easily influenced, it’s scary.

I am not wearing anymore both the Hamilton and the Bulova, even if a few years back, when I bought them, I loved them so much.

I even believed the jazzmaster to be the perfect watch for me and that I wouldn’t have ever needed a second one (ahah).

Also, I’m the only one of my group of friends collecting, so nobody around me really understands any of my claptrap about this.

So, my question for you would be: what is your judgement on this collection so far and which model would you trade?

Correct, his name is Cristian Fenzi. He closed his shop because of Covid but he still makes these in a lab, you can text him and he’ll make one for you

There is an artisan in Florence, Italy that makes watch covers in whatever metal you want depicting whatever scene you want
