My grandfather initiated me to all things beautiful and it continued with my dad.

I especially love the old pocket watches.

I have always found them magnificent!

If you have deep pockets and a taste for refined artefacts:

Vacheron Constantin, Breguet, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet and Jaeger-LeCoultre are on a league of their own.

As the saying goes:

"You don't own one, you merely look after for the next generation."

Pocket watches are a bit too classy for me. I can definitely appreciate the work involved in creating that thing.

Watches are so fun. After buying a few I like the idea of just owning one. Using the heck out of it and then swapping for a different one or wearing it till it’s broken.

Less is definitely more as I get older

I don’t have any pocket watches, thought about getting at least one for the collection just to have for when I wear a suit. For everyday use, it get smashed at work and I don’t generally have empty enough pockets for one.
