His first mechanical watch – the TAG Heuer Carrera WS211 – was a gift from his mother on his 21st birthday. It was a constant presence on his wrist as an art student, and later for the big successes of his career. The watch was with him when he met Sir Patrick Stewart and when he demonstrated his artistic process for Prince Charles. His TAG Heuer Carrera is a reminder to never forget where he came from, and to remain ambitious.
