CRISIS-PROOF SIDE OF WATCHMAKING
After several months of activity and adaptation in the context of the pandemic, Silas Walton, the founder of A Collected Man], is relieved to be on vacation. He explains that, since he founded the platform for selling collectible watches in 2014, he has experienced continuous growth. And this year is no exception. Even better, in fact: “Between December and July, we achieved the same turnover as in the whole of 2019,” he says.
It was at the age of 26 that the Briton launched A Collected Man, after completing a law degree at University College London and gaining experience in mergers and acquisitions and luxury distribution. Passionate about horology, he discovered a niche that was still under-exploited: the online sale of pre-owned models from independent watchmakers such as Philippe Dufour, Roger W. Smith, Kari Voutilainen and F.P. Journe, for whom A Collected Man is an international reference.

“Your heart was warm and happy
With the lilt of Irish laughter
Every day and in every way
Now forever and ever after."
