I am not a watchmaker, and I do not pretend to be.
I am the person who makes a complicated, high-risk purchase simple. Who asks what the watch is for before asking what it costs. Who tells you when the honest answer is to wait a year.
My background is commercial rather than horological — two decades building and leading go-to-market teams, where the work was always the same underneath: understand what someone actually needs, find it, verify it, and stand behind the recommendation.
Technical inspection is performed by independent watchmakers I do not sell for. The judgement is mine, and I will tell you plainly when I would pass.
