    Always a pleasure to see a KZreadr with a collection that is personal and unique to them. Not just the ubiquitous Rolex models with a speedmaster, reverso, and a black bay of some description.

    Excellent collection ! Just subscribed ! Only thing I will say, don't trust anyone who tells you that the Moonswatch is worth owning. Lol. I had one ,Mission to Uranus, my experience, plastic crystal scratched by a linen shirt sleeve,frayed strap in less than a week, top pusher lost on the street,,and the piece de resistance, a blue stained wrist. Not to put too fine a point on it, it is a total piece of sh1t. It's a low quality children's watch that you'd be afraid to give to a child in case they choked on one of the pushers. But I love the rest of your collection !!

    Great collection! Honest and personal. I admire how your pieces are all worn, etched with memories. Your collection is filled with personalities. Looking forward to more stories. A couple of questions about the Montblanc (Definitely way undervalued, but great a opportunity for collectors:). What’s your wrist size and how does it wears compare to the AirKing? Thank you.

    That’s excellent collection in the high end section, perfect one only Rolex model with the subtle green to represent the company and I also agree is the best version specially for one piece from them. Globe Master calendar and Omega Seamaster GMT are two clever pieces where they mixed the extra function while not deviating aesthetically from the originals 👌🏽, I also liked the IWC GMT except for the A font on it, but still a nice piece.
