Ｑ１．你什麼時候註冊IG帳戶的？為什麼？

When did you open your IG account? and why?

為了要尋找新發佈錶款的資訊和照片，也好奇於別人的收藏，我在2013年開設IG帳號。之前我只看鐘錶雜誌；而IG及其他社群媒體上的消息是即時的，所以我覺得多花點時間在網路上有其必要。

I opened my IG account in 2013 because I was looking for new info and pictures of watches that just came out and was curious about what other people collected. Before IG I was only reading watch magazine; on IG and other social media the news is almost instantly so I needed to do more on the internet.

Q2．透過你的貼文，你想傳達什麼訊息？

What message would you want to convey through your post?

我並沒有真的想要傳達什麼訊息。我的貼文單純就是我喜歡的、或是我自己的腕錶的照片。我的IG帳號是關於我的錶、以及在生活中我喜歡的其他事物，如汽車、機車和某種生活風格。

I'm not really trying to convey a message through my posts. They are just pictures of watches I like or own. My IG account is all about (my) watches and the things I like in life (cars, motorbikes, a certain lifestyle).

Q３．請選出最能代表你的風格的貼文

Please choose one post that can represent your style.

隨著時間流轉，我的風格也有所變化。但在最近幾年，都是圍繞著獨立製錶品牌。

I think my style is changed a bit over the years. But the last few years it’s been all about Independent brands.

Q４．哪篇貼文讓你印象最深刻？或哪篇貼文的點擊率最高？背後有什麼故事可分享嗎？

Which post(s) impressed you the most or which post has the most engagement rate? Is there any story behind?

讓我印象最深的是我最新手的Rexphep Rexhepi. 我收到好多很棒的留言。這是個起步不久的品牌。Rexphep是一位真正的製錶職人；他對錶款和品牌的未來有清晰的想法。我已經在期待他的下一個作品了。

The post that impressed me the most is from my latest incoming - My Rexphep Rexhepi. I got so much nice comments about that watch. I think this brand is just getting started. Rexphep is a true master watchmaker with a clear vision about his watches and the future of the brand. Already looking forward to his next new release

Q５．對你的工作或生活而言，腕錶的意義為何？

What do watches mean to your work or life?

對工作來說是還好；但對我個人而言，絕對具有相當的意義。腕錶是我最大的嗜好。當我看著我的錶時，它們總能讓我開心微笑。每天我都花好幾個小時在這個興趣上，不論是上社群媒體，或是與愛錶們相處。

Not so much for my work but definitely a lot for me personally. It’s one of my biggest hobby. It gives me a huge smile on my face each time I look at my watches. I spend at least a few hours a day on this hobby with Social Media and the watches themselves.

Q６．你收藏手錶的標準是什麼？

What are your criteria in collecting watch?

很簡單，一支錶要能讓我會心一笑。如同這只令人驚豔的De Bethune DB27，不論是一只有趣的錶，或是一只精美的正裝錶，當我看著我的手腕時，那只錶必須能在我臉上帶出一抹微笑。

It’s a simple one: the watch needs to put a smile on my face. It can be a fun watch or a gorgeous dress watch, but it needs to put a smile on my face when I look at my wrist, like this amazing De Bethune DB27.

Q７．你最喜歡的腕錶品牌？

Which watch brand is your favourite?

這題不好答。我喜歡很多品牌，大部分是獨立製錶。在我看來，每個品牌都有自己的迷人之處。所以抱歉啦！我沒辦法說哪一個是最喜歡的。不過亨利慕時是我最喜歡的品牌之一。

That’s a tough one. There are a lot of brands that I like; most of them are independent brands. Each brand has its own charm imho, so I can’t really tell you which is my favourite, sorry. H Moser & Cie is one of those brands I really like.

Q８．你最喜歡的手錶是哪一只？為什麼？

Which is your favourite watch? Why?

我的答案和上一題一樣，沒辦法只選一只。我有很多不同類型的錶，它們都各有特色，如同這只Urwerk 103T。

I think I need to give you the same answer like the question above. I have a lot of different kind of watches, and they all are special to me in their own way, like this Urwerk 103T.

Q９．依你之見，一只「好的腕錶」的要素為何？

In your opinion, what makes “a nice watch”?

依我個人淺見，設計和打磨，是讓一只腕錶出色的兩個主要因素。Gronefeld 的Remontoire 就是個完美的例證。

Design and finishing are the two main aspects that makes a watch special imho. The Gronefeld Remontoire is a perfect example of that.

Q１０．你最常戴的錶是哪一/哪幾只？

Which watch(es) do you usually wear?

上班時間，我通常佩戴較不昂貴的錶，如 Seiko Presage、Staudt，或是怪趣的 Amida。

I normally wear less expensive watches during office hours like Seiko Presage watches, Staudt, or some quirky watches like my Amida.

Q１１．你的第一只手錶是哪一只？你現在還擁有它嗎？

Would you please share your first watch? Do you still have it?

我的第一只錶是名仕的 Linea。我在滿18歲時購入它，那已經是31年前的事了。我仍然擁有它，雖然已經超過二十年沒戴了。不過它會永遠留在我的收藏裡。

My first watch was a Baume et Mercier Linea. I bought this watch when I turned 18 (31 years ago). I still have this watch, but haven’t worn it for more than 20 years. But it will never leave my collection.

Q１２．你擁有過最瘋狂的手錶是哪一只？

Please share the craziest watch that you have.

這題簡單，我的Konstantin Chaykin Joker又酷又有趣，我非常喜歡！

That’s an easy one: my Konstantin Chaykin Joker. Such a cool and funny watch. I just love it!

Q１３．你下一只想買的錶是什麼？

Which watch would you want to purchase next?

再過幾個月，我有一只新錶會到。是我向一個小的獨立品牌Kudoke訂製的獨一客製款。我有一長串想要入手的獨立製錶錶款名單，不過我總是看機緣。目前我尋找中的是這只Vianney Halter Classic。

I have one watch incoming within a few months. It’s a piece unique from a small indie brand “Kudoke”. I also have a loooooong list of indie watches that I would love to own, but I always see what crosses my path. This Vianney Halter Classic is one watch I am on the hunt for at this moment.

Q１４．你夢想擁有的手錶是哪一只？

Do you have a dream watch?

我的夢想希望清單上有許多錶，若有一天能入手Greubel Forsey的錶，那絕對將會是夢想成真。我真的愛死了Greubel Forsey的Balancier Contemporain。這只錶如此優雅，有著令人讚嘆的打磨，以及易於佩戴、略小於40mm的尺寸。

I have many dream watches on my wish list, but to own a Greubel Forsey one day would definitely be a dream come true. I really love the new Greubel Forsey Balancier Contemporain. It’s such an elegant piece with an amazing finishing and a very wearable case size just under 40mm.

Q１５．除了手錶，你還有其他的愛好嗎？

Do you have other hobby than watches?

除了手錶，我還喜歡汽車和機車。目前我正在修復翻新一輛勞斯萊斯Silver Shadow。差不多接近尾聲了，只剩下內裝和一些鍍鉻配件。此外，我也喜歡運動，如體適能和健身。

Besides watches I love cars and motorbikes too. I'm restoring a Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow now. Almost getting to the end; just need to do the upholstery and some chrome parts. I also like to do Sports (fitness and crossfit).

Q１６．如果你只能保留一只手錶，你會留哪一只？為什麼？

If you only get to keep ONE watch in your collection, which one would you keep? Why?

我喜愛我所有的錶。但如果只能留一只，那絕對是Christiaan vd Klaauw Mondial。十五年前我太太懷孕時，我訂了這只錶，並在自動盤上刻上了我女兒的名字和生日。這只錶將會永遠陪伴著我。

I love all my watches. But if I can only get to keep ONE, then it’s definitely my Christiaan vd Klaauw Mondial. This watch is very special to me. I ordered the watch when my wife was pregnant 15years ago, and I had my daughter's name and birth date engraved on the rotor. This watch will always be with me.
