Talking Watches with Wei Koh - The Paul Newman Daytona




I had the opportunity last month to actually sit down and have a talk watches session with Wei Koh where we shared our passion for watches, especially the mystical Paul Newman Daytona. Wei is a maestro for all things watches and I am just a passionate collector who loves fine and beautiful things. Two of us met in a watch exhibition and we immediately made friends ephemerally. As I did a insta story with him during that day when we first met, I was sublime by his knowledge and that deep-voiced with a knack for articulating his thoughts in graceful sentences. He's just good in his field of expertise.

Soon, I told him let's do a session on talking watches and I believe within 1 month, we started to get the cameras and started shooting. Due to his busy and hectic flight schedule, it's not always easy to catch him in person. Hence, I took the opportunity when we set a date for the shooting and the rest was history. We shared more on the rolex daytona and as you can see from the video, he's so passionate about it and he knows his facts so well that it's virtually not memorizing but rather speaking naturally from years of playing with watches. I seldom had an admiration for someone but he's just another stratosphere at this moment. Watch the full video in YouTube above and see my lousy story telling compared to his eruditely expression of watches which made these objects so alluring and mystical.
