Starting a Collection with Patek Philippe to Bespoke Independents | Collector Conversation

Satbir’s collecting journey started with the idea of wanting the most efficient mechanical machine possible: the wristwatch. He started out big with the Patek Philippe Aquanaut and hasn’t looked back since, so in this episode, Tim talks to him about his guiding watch collecting philosophies. His journey has brought him to Rolex, Singer, Daniel Roth, and even a bespoke Koivukoski piece, with him choosing an emotional connection over brand recognition every time. Watch the full interview to see just how exactly his collection and tastes have grown and evolved. #luxurywatches #watchcollector #watchcollecting #luxurywatch #patek #rolex Please Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@1916company/?sub_confirmation=1 Download the app: https://onelink.to/8u2bgh Buy Watches Here: https://www.the1916company.com View hands-on luxury watch reviews on The 1916 Company Watch Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/@the1916companywatchreviews/?sub_confirmation=1 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the1916company 0:00 Introduction 0:49 The Most Efficient Mechanical Machine: The Wristwatch 2:16 Early Collecting & Patek Philippe Aquanaut 6:13 Collecting Philosophies 10:20 Form and Function with Rolex Daytona and Sky-Dweller 15:18 Emotionality in Collecting 17:04 Singer Flytrack Prime 19:29 Patek, A.
