The Zoute Grand Prix in Knokke reminds me a bit of The Purge. For 48 hours, there are basically no traffic rules. Ferrari’s going full throttle in a 30 zone, screaming Lambo’s drifting on roundabouts, double parked Rolls Royce’s, Bentley’s from 1920 cruising without licence plates… It’s basically Neverland for people with way too much […]
Go to your local butcher on a Sunday morning and you’ll see at least 3 Speedmaster, 2 Subs and a Datejust on your way home. Not saying anything bad about these watches, just an observation. But what about a Roger Dubuis Excalibur Skeleton Pirelli? There are only 88 pieces in the world, so the odds […]
At a GTG dinner after Baselworld, I shared the table with some really interesting people. After the obligatory table-shot, I spotted a Jacob & Co Epic X on some guy’s wrist, a watch that I had never seen before in real life. A few minutes later I spotted a Konstantin Chaykin Joker on this guy’s […]
Yesterday night, I joined another gtg from the Belgium Watch Club. In other words, a bunch on men drooling over watches and complaining about the Pepsi GMT waitlist. This one was in Antwerp, and praise the Lord, it was outside. A good thing, because last time the event was in an attic and I was […]
When I was at the IWC Air Trophy, my watchspotting eyes were sharper than ever! When watching the airplaines land on the beach, I saw a glimpse of a Rolex Daytona on a black alligator strap, strapped on the wrist of a guy in his seventies, right in front of me. When I looked a […]
Airplanes, beaches, booze and watches. This could have been a new Post Malone track. In fact, it’s a short description of the air rally I spectated in Knokke, Belgium. The air trophy had a STOL competition. What is STOL? STOL is an acronym for a Short Take-Off and Landing aircraft, which have short runway requirements […]
This is a special one, since we spotted a celebrity: the one and only Mister Tudor! Mister Tudor is one of the biggest and most influential Tudor related Instagram pages. But who is the man behind the snowflake hands? Some legends say he might be Tudor ambassador David Beckham himself, others think he might be […]
Some time ago, I started chatting with Christian Zeron. Christian is a really cool guy from New Jersey, and the founder of Theo&Harris. If you just asked ‘who/what is Theo& Harris’, go educate yourself, you uncultured swine. Theo&Harris is one of the fastest rising names in the vintage watchworld. They specialize in selling the rarest […]
A few days ago, I met up with an old friend. We hadn’t seen eachother in a while, so I was curious on what wristcandy he was wearing. He did not dissapoint me: a 34mm yellow gold Omega De ville. But wait, a yellow gold dresswatch on perlon and a sweater? Risky combo, but he […]
My buddy and I were just outside of Harrods, grabbing some fresh air, until we heard a loud ‘damn, not again’. A lady just broke her last cigarette. Oh the horror. As a non smoking guy, I actually quite enjoyed it. But my friend knew her pain and offered her a fag. She lit the […]
