ROY 'S STORY
Growing up in East Germany and leaving the GDR to West Germany after the collapse of the Berlin Wall, Roy and his family experienced challenges that helped shape who he is today. He believes that it’s better to own something with a meaning than to buy for the sake of consuming. He decides to customize his watch caseback with the phrase “live by design, not by default” as a cornerstone of his life, that if you put your mind to it, you can make anything happen.
FROM STORY TO FINISHED PRODUCT
Watches have evolved. It’s no longer a tool just to tell time. People buy watches for several reasons: to show off their personalities because the design and colors speak to them; and to remind them of their fondest memories because there’s a story they want to share. Here are some of our customers’ watches and their stories they’re sharing with us.
