Very interesting video. I did not know much about Breyer prior to the video. Thanks very much, Grady, for sharing this.

Some amazing pieces. He has a nice outlook on watches.

Good to see he wants to ensure others can be able to view and appreciate them too.

Sounds like a great guy.

We're going to be in Zurich for a day in September and am hoping to stop in there. Unfortunately, it's a Saturday so the museum in closed.

I love this episode! I also like how Rene Beyer tries to get him to buy a watch or two every now and then
