This watch is so rad.
The story goes that a Cesar DeTray, a wealthy businessman and friend of Jacques-David LeCoultre, grandson of the company’s founder, approached the watchmaker with the type of problem that is unique to the idle rich.

Fond reminiscences of freshness are no foundation for love. Fix.

A little hand drawn map (which I often do before going to a neighborhood that I easily get lost in) that I submitted on a whim for Kris Harzinski's book project a couple years ago was accepted. Well, I received a copy of the book in the mail the other week and at the author's request, I'll be speaking at a PR event for the book at the New York Public Library's Stephen A. Schwarzman Building (the one with the lions) on September 15. Come say hi!
