Watches tell time, but for many they are visual objects first and foremost. This is especially true for vintage watches.
My friend Mr. A was probably born with a iPhone in his hand. As an Italian he has a very good eye for beauty not to mention details. I take his 15 best pictures from the Geneva auctions to show you. All with minimal commentary. I hope the level of details and beauty of these pictures make your Saturday a little more sweeter.
