A watch blog bringing square watches to the forefront. Focussing on vintage and unknown references from a range of brands.
Why I Started the blog?
I have been into watches for years since I walked past a JLC boutique in Rome. I remember asking my Dad “Why don’t they put the prices on the watches in the windows”. That was the beginning of a very expensive hobby…
The actual reason I started the blog is to encourage myself to research and chronicle lesser known watches that I come across. However, I think deep down it is more of an excuse to justify purchasing more watches for ‘research purposes’.
Longer term, It would be great to monetise my passion (While maintaining some integrity). For the very foreseeable future this will be more of a personal blog for my own selfish enjoyment (and no one can stop me).
