The World's Biggest Watch Collection Worth 1 Billion: Sandro Fratini's Rolex, Patek, Tissot & More
6,443Today I have the honor and pleasure of sharing with you a special #WatchTalk with Sandro Fratini—owner of one of the world's most prestigious watch collections, and lover of beautiful timepieces. In this interview on location at his horology themed Hotel L'Orologio in Florence, Italy, I chat with Sandro about his 2000 piece watch collection valued at over 1 billion euros, and how his passion for watches began. In this video we'll take a look at a few watches from Sandro's collection, including his Rolex Oyster Perpetual, Tissot Telemeter Chronograph, and Squale 1521. We also discuss his love of Audemars Piguet and Patek Philippe, the rarest watches in his collection, his preferred desert island watch, his current grail watch, how his watches have inspired his work, and more. What do you think about the watches featured in this video? Please share in the comments!
