I’d say in the 2nd or 3rd grade when I got my very first watch
Omega, Angelus
It was a cheap quartz watch; I'm not sure what brand. I got my first Casio soon thereafter.
Patek Philippe 5970, Omega Speedmaster Professional 2998, Angelus Chrono-Datoluxe
I’ve been interested in watches for as long as I can remember. I've always thought the only “jewelry” a man should wear is a nice watch. It also says a lot about the personality of the wearer. For years, I frequented various watch forums, mostly as a reader and occasional contributor. My hobby really started to turn into a profession when I joined Fratello Magazine (then known as "Fratello Watches") back in 2014. This was my stepping stone into the industry and the path that led me to Chrono24 about 6 months later. At work, I’m responsible for social media and content marketing. I’m an avid Omega fan – as we all are at Fratello – and I really love vintage watches, especially chronographs. I also enjoy researching the history and various models of Angelus watches and collecting information about their early military chronographs.
