Who are those guys?

Chris: A dedicated Swiss collector for several decades, he acquired an immense knowledge in vintage watches and clocks of all periods of horology. He’s a bon vivant and a walking horological encyclopaedia. During his extensive collecting activity he was always hunting for special pieces. Having seen and collected watches and clocks for all his life, he is now ready to let some of his gems go.

Gio: Of Italian origin, but born and raised in Zurich (Switzerland) he has always had an interest in mechanics and precision instruments.

With extensive knowledge of horological principles -and history plus a very precise vision of what he wanted, he had a very hard time to find a wristwatch for himself. Either too expensive for what they are or not corresponding to his aesthetics he quickly turned to vintage watches. As with Chris, some of his pieces now need to go.

James: As a professional watchmaker (KHWCC Certified Watch Technician, Le Locle, Switzerland) and expert in vintage watches, especially vintage chronographs, he has a more practical access to horology. Due to his profession he has access to great pieces which he sensibly restores for his own collection. Latter needs to be streamlined, so several of his pieces need a new home.

James can also be contacted for taking advantage of his expertise as watchmaker through his homepage:

We are foremost collectors and not dealers, so most watches shown here are part of our personal collections, have been worn by ourselves for some time and are now sold to enable to streamline our respective collections and focus on specific themes within the vast universe of vintage watch collecting.

One part of the watches for sale has been bought for resale, the small profits contributing to sustain our passion and the running of this site.

Enjoy your stay.
