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 […]
After spending too much time at QP, you lose your grasp on reality. 70.000 euro watches feel ‘resonably priced’, and everyting under 15.000 feels dirt cheap. I had to stop floating and get back to the real world! This is when I met Ian Jerome, a friendly gentleman who was sitting next to me at […]
After an exhausting day at Salon QP, we took a pitstop at Watches Of Switserland. They saw that we came from Salon QP (the dozens of bags may have betrayed us) and they gave us a chance to see some amazing Ulysse Nardin models. The one that stole my attention was the Minute Repeater. What. […]
At the Belgium Watch Club GTG, I ran into @thewatchpatient. A cool fellow watchnerd, who is a watchmaker and a vivid Breitling collector. That night, he wore an IWC Portofino chrono on his right wrist, and a vintage Breitling Navitimer on his left wrist. That might give you a touch on how cool he is. […]
