"One-hundred-and-sixty rare and exclusive watches go on display this week at the Design Museum (London)

The collection, which belongs to one individual, is exclusively comprised of hard-to-find watches in perfect working order. It skews heavily toward vintage Patek Philippe and Rolex but also features a few high-end independents, like the French-Swiss brand F.P Journe.

As Getreide grew up and his means grew with him, he focused on collecting only rare watches, produced in small numbers, eschewing anything that wasn’t in excellent condition. Thierry Stern, Patek Philippe’s CEO, became a friend – at least one of the watches on display at The Design Museum was designed specifically for Getreide"

HODINKEE just did a video on this yesterday but it wasn’t long enough and neither is the GQ article. I’m hoping someone does a more thorough review of this collection. There is more talk about it in the Patek sub forum

That's interesting...passed up the Victory watch because it was rather worn, insisting that the collection must be perfect, and yet "Watches are made to be worn."

Would love to see what he's got in the Graves-Fullerton collection. Damn.

I’d like to see more on the collection and pieces

The victory watch is the one he goes on to say that he regrets not buying it.

I've never really come across Graves-Fullerton though, more research required on my end
