I still remember fondly when I finally got to meet you over the Purists dinner here in Hong Kong. You showed me a few vintage pieces from your collection and exposed me to a different level of collecting. The deep sea alarm diver was out of this world! We...

I cannot imagine myself preaching in the desert, alone. That takes a great man to survive in such a situation, if not, I shall reflect upon myself through the various mirage that I can come across.. With a little help from a bit of water.. Life is as such...
