Thank you Chris for your appreciation and support for my daughter's designs. Also, Tim, thank you for showcasing Möels on your channel. It's been wonderful to hear the stories behind the watches, especially the one about his grandfather's Casio alarm set at 2pm. Keep bringing more! 🙏

“Watches as an emotional center in a changing life.” Thank you for sunming up what these watches mean to us, Tim! I can personally relate to this as I just recently bought my first 5 digit sports model Rolex (a personal, albeit humble, grail of mine) to celebrate surviving for 41 years in this world.

I watch frequenlty but the first .time. i will comment. I enjoyed this feature with Chris. As some one who writes, and is of a poetic bent it was nice to see a relatable soul. Not that theres anything wrong with it but often seeing these captain of industry types or career military servicemen with a roll of patek variations isnt always relatable. Thank you for showing a different and aspirational side of the collecting uninverse.. ive got that same red Barton on my Seiko Skydiving cocktail time.. Bravo.on this episode. Keep it up.Tim & ci.o.

"This is my Grandfathers Watch".....stopped me in my tracks! I own a Lot of watches and all across the Spectrum of "price". The Most Valuable Watch that I own.....is an early 1960's Timex that was my Grandfathers watch and YES It took A Licking And Is STILL....Ticking. Watches with That "Provenance" are Invaluable......Period! Very Refreshing Interview. BTW......The "Value" in so called Micro-Brands is enormous.
