Q. Dear Gonzo, I have been following your column and I found my interest on watches growing leaps and bounds; it’s been quite a while. I have accumulated a small collection of – not watches, as you might think – names from which, I’m going to pick just two. One I definitely wish to be

Introduction With 2022 approaching fast, it’s time for everyone to toss old, restrictive memories and mindsets down the drain; to clear the ways for bright, bold, brand new ideas to pour in.

Q. Dear Gonzo, Lest it comes as a shock to you, I’d like to declare right away – I’m not actually interested in watches and neither trying to put a guise; nor posing an instance of an intellectual inquiry about watches with something else in hiding.

Still a newbie, I seek advice and wisdom in this vast world of horology; you are one among the few who greatly help me nurture my passion for watches I developed over the past couple of years. Just recently, the Lord’s graces showered bringing upon a
Do you feel the winter chill? It’s that part of the year that gives you the goosebumps; in anticipation; in expectation, in excitement – of deals that let you save as much as you’ll spend. End result: Ending up with more number of purchases without exceeding your budget! The Black Friday deals are our biggest
Q1. Hello Gonzo! The reason I write to you is simple. Christmas is near and besides the other couple of gifts I’ve got for my grandson (who is about to enter his corporate, professional life), I am looking for a watch that will make him very proud wearing it now and in the coming days.

Watch gifting basics Not every watch gifted needs to be the Breguet No. 160 Grand Complication from the Swedish count Axel von Fersen the Younger to Marie Antoinette, the Queen of France (wife of Louis XVI). Or – the Ladies Oyster Datejust from John Meyer to Jessica Simpson! Only to remember while gifting a nice watch is the other
Status symbols vs. Novelties for those in the know Luxury never goes out of fashion. Neither do the luxury products. That’s the reason you might arrive in a 1940’s Rolls Royce to a banquet where everyone else gathered in their most recent tech-laden sports cars or family sedans. Luxury is not about utility.
