Sometimes that’s blurred with “collecting” and i have learned to let go some pieces i bought cause i had to have it but have no meaning behind it those always leave the collection quickly
To share such a painful detail about your dad while honoring him with a beautiful object imbued with personal meaning was truly moving. Wishing you the best in all your endeavors. May your watch collection grow, bringing with it more happy memories
So nice to see a SOTC from someone that's interested in watches but isn't a "watch influencer" or a really wealthy celebrity. I feel like the influencers have some pressure to keep rotating watches for the sake of content and celebrities have so much money that they can just get watches on a whim (or are gifted them if their an ambassadors). Those SOTC's are fine to see different watches and people opinion on the watch as an object. But when someone has to spend months if not years saving up and planning for a watch, the collection that creates is truly unique and fascinating to watch.
Sorry to hear about your father's loss. It's lovely that you chose to immortalize his memory in such a beautiful and personal way. Thank you for sharing, and thank you for bringing more positivity into this world!
True watch collector put value/story in every watch, no matter how much, or complicated, or brand, complication, etc. True story teller. Thank you for giving me inspiration! Well done!
Absolutely great video. I totally understand what you mean about knowing your father, while still not knowing his deeper sides. My greatest sympathies for your tragic loss.
Your collection is absolutely fire! I love how each one of this pieces represents something very personal. My favorite is the Hamilton panda, is is the one watch I regret letting go, I may have to get it back one day!
I picking a watch to get for reaching a financial milestone. I was thinking Marathon lately. But before that I was thinking about the intramatic. I never thought to get one at the passing of my father. Probably because he was always giving me a bad time about new watches coming to the house. He'd always say "you getting another watch." Sorry for your loss.
I love this video. I know at one point at least you've talked about using the apple watch for exercise. Are you still using that? Do you have any recommendations for wearing that alongside your collection of more traditional watches?
That’s cool for you but every watch definitely does not need a story lol it’s not always that deep. Memories are made when watches are worn, anyway. You can get a watch to mark an occasion but if you don’t even wear it and make memories then it’s pointless. How about people just do what they want to do? Lol
This is how you collect watches, all have a purpose and meaning and mark milestones in your life. Well done, great content

Grand Seiko make some really lovely pieces, and the snowflake is such a classic. Thanks for sharing the what and why of your watches!
Wonderful video Maurice
This is an interest I share with you, Maurice. I really like Grand Seiko's Spring Drive movement. I'd have an Omiwatari.
Nice collection of stories and watches.
Nice to hear the stories behind these lovely picks! I'm new to watches but I wish I had got one for my 100k plaque too, perfect way to celebrate it.
Loved learning about the watches and hearing the stories!
Beautiful stories in each one of these pieces! Awesome collection!!

Dang been waiting for this video mate! Time to put the kettle on
I love this video. I know at one point at least you've talked about using the apple watch for exercise. Are you still using that? Do you have any recommendations for wearing that alongside your collection of more traditional watches?
This was so dope!
