Starting all over…
Summary:
In this engaging conversation, along with our special guest George, we delve into the challenge of rebuilding our collections from scratch, exploring what we would buy again and what we would do differently. We discuss our personal watch preferences, sizing, durability, and the sentimental value of certain timepieces. We explore our must-have watches, the evolving nature of watch collections, culminating in each of us sharing our final selections for a three-watch collection.
