Talking Watches With Alfredo Paramico

Ғылым және технология

There is a small handful of vintage watch collectors in this world that can truly be called "market-makers." John Goldberger is one of them. Another is the 45-year-old, tan-skinned, silver-haired gentleman you are about to meet. Alfredo Paramico is a true insider, and has long been considered one of the top watch buyers on the planet. Remember that unique platinum Patek Philippe Bulletin Chronometer that sold for $3,992,858 in November of 2012? You know, the watch that actually beat the Eric Clapton owned platinum 2499 in the same sale? Yes, Alfredo bought that. A 1518 in steel? He's owned one of those, too. This is your chance to go inside the collection of a true connoisseur. This is Talking Watches with Alfredo Paramico. For the full story, go to www.hodinkee.com/blog/talking-...

    That's why Italy is regarded as the birthplace of style. You don't even need to listen to him talk about his passion of collecting watches and you get the sense that this man has taste. Just make a quick comparison of what they are wearing, which is the exact same thing: V neck and a shirt. One looks like a grandad... and the other one is Alfredo Paramico.

    It's one thing to be rich. Another to collect only understated and elegant things. There are some mega expensive pieces here but none appears flashy and everything looks like he'd casually wear them without fuss. No massive gold and diamond pieces, just an eye for aesthetics, proportions & historical importance.

  • @levarbu5

    Alfredo is such a gentleman who apparently know how to spend money on watches unlike some guys from the word of sport or music (for example). No diamonds, no fancy (kitschy) Hublot, Franch Muller, Rolex and other posing brands. This is probably the best collection ive ever seen and i guess its just a 10% of his collection.

People who come into money, don't really know much about watches, but want people to think they do, they'll buy a Rolex. I'm not knocking Rolex here, they make great watches, but that is the downside of being so popular. I doubt Rolex see it as a downside.

    Fully agree with you. Rolex is the "entry level" into serious watches and for most of us, it was the first serious watch. From there are only two roads. One to PP, VC, JLC, ALS and AP or the other way to Richard Mille, Hublot and other travesty brands.

    I love these videos with Benjamin Clymer talking watches with super collectors like Alfredo. I learned a ton from why each piece is so special. I would love to know if these pieces have needed any service or are they completely in original condition.
