#NSOW #breitling #success

Back in 2017 CVC took over Breitling and many, most even, predicted the brands doom. The bankers would ruin it, George Kern would destroy it. Four years on and the brand is booming, increasing in value over two and a half times and having produced a stunning array of gorgeous watches. Great job guys. And I cant resist patting myself on the back and throwing in an "I told you so".

For your awareness some things about me and the channel.

Im an engineer whose into human behavior, loves the ideas behind art and sees watches as a mix or science, craft, art, business, history, technology, philosophy and psychology. As a result my videos cover all that ground.

Just to be clear, I hate the expression "its just a watch". If you got this far watches matter to you and they represent a bridge between us - dismissing them as unimportant seems wrong and disrespectful. That doesn't mean we cant and don't have fun, it just means we should not be totally mindless of others.

I'm a watch collector and curator - I like my collections to have a theme. My collection has several themes:
1. Vintage Alpina watches
2. Travel watches (GMT. UTC, world timers, home times, dual times)
3. Seiko Prospex dive watches
4. Breitling chronographs
5. Stuff I just really like.

I often forget wristchecks so if you want to see what I'm wearing, my collection and other random bits of my life check out my instagram:
