NOS Comex torch 'SAGITTAIRE'

Found myself another toy... a NOS Comex torch. Love those!!!! The perfect image. A Rolex Comex with the torch. They can be used down to 1000 ft. And also suitable for diving with oxy-helium atmospheres.

2010 wishes... what are yours?

Well almost 2010... a new decade. The time of reflection and new goals. New dreams, new wishes. What are yours? What do you wish for in 2010? 

Here are mine. I have been living in 2 worlds for the last years. My world of design, branding, creative concepts and my passion of making books. And my passion for vintage and vintage Rolex as addiction for the last 3.5 years. But also cool vintage design like furniture etc.

My big passion are 'stories' and telling stories through my work. This is also what attracts me in vintage Rolex. Every watch tells it's own story. I want to tell those stories and add something to it.

I hope 2010 will be the start of melting the worlds together. To combine my passion for design, vintage, photography and Rolex. And combining my big passion of making books... Rolex books. Hope to finish one in 2010. 

But also making collection books...for real nice collectors. Flying in, 2-3 days of shooting watches, great talks and making real high-end, small numbers private books.  Not commercial productions for bookshops... but books that will lighten the heart of the collector as he can enjoy his collection now every day. But in a very special and cool way. That would be my dream for 2010.

And more... like making real cool T-shirts,.... and more cools stuff. I am missing now.

So much more idea's! Can't wait to start on it.

And my big wish for 2010 is to find some real nice first owner and unpolished watches. 

Watches with stories and special character.

But most.. to be able to meet my watch-friends again in 2010. Having more great meetings and talks. As that is what i think of being the highest value in this. The people we meet on the road. And the lessons and knowledge learned during this amazing trip.

So tell us, what are your wishes???

I wish all your dreams for 2010 will become true. 

A great gift

Yesterday a great friend gave me this. As a X-Mas gift. Thanks!!! The best. I love Comex pins and this one is really cool.
