Our Story

A few years ago, during the first of my four trips to Japan, I discovered Tokyo for the very first time.

In this vast, energetic city, in the heart of Shibuya, I walked into a Bic Camera without really knowing what I was looking for. At the time, I knew almost nothing about watches: movements, calibres, Japanese watchmakers and the details that give a timepiece its character were all new to me.

And yet, that day, I bought my very first watch.

I chose an Orient Contemporary Semi-Skeleton powered by the F6S22 calibre, above all for what it represented to me. Japan had left a deep impression on me through its culture of precision, discipline and attention to detail. From its railways to its architecture and everyday objects, I was struck by the sense of reliability and refinement woven into daily life.

That watch became much more than an object. It became a lasting reminder of that first journey and, without me knowing it at the time, the starting point of a real passion. I still wear it today, and it still runs perfectly.

I always look for the watch that truly speaks to me.

The most expensive watch is not necessarily the one I would want to wear. The largest is not necessarily the most interesting. To me, a great watch is first and foremost one I genuinely like, one with a story, a personality or a detail that makes it special, and one I will be happy to wear all day.

Over the years, I have built solid knowledge of certain parts of the watch market, Seiko and Japanese watches in particular. I have also sold several hundred watches through the auction platform Catawiki, which taught me how to select, evaluate and present a timepiece.

With this shop, I wanted to take that passion one step further. Here you will find watches chosen for their character, rarity, history, or simply because they gave me the same feeling as my first watch in Tokyo. Every piece is presented with transparency: what you see is exactly what you get.

More than a watch shop, I want this to be a personal selection of timepieces that deserve to be discovered, collected and, above all, worn.
