Q: How did you get into watch collecting?

Best friend AL got me hooked with a Seiko Solar SNE245 diver

Q: What was the first watch you ever owned?

Mickey Mouse watch

Q: Do you have a watch with a particularly interesting story behind it?

The Longines Spirit Zulu Time GMT 42mm was announced 1 day before my 40th birthday. i was so happy that I waited to pull the trigger on the perfect mechanical traveller GMT, which was my Grail. My son was born this year and on my wrist when he was born and when I first held him was this watch. I will hand this Longines heirloom down to him and engrave our initials on the back when he is old enough.

Q: What is one piece of advice you have for someone just getting into watches?

Always see the watch in person before buying it

Q: What brands have been getting your attention lately?

Longines, Grand Seiko, Casio G-Shock

Q: What is your grail watch and why?

1) Credor Eichii II for its beauty/simplicity/minimalism/craftsmanship. 2) Rolex GMT Master II S & G because it's the best designed & ultimate GMT watch. 3) A Lange & Sohne all for their beauty & craftsmanship.
