A Few Minutes with Peter Roberts

Real talent is a truly rare thing. It is not something that just happens. It takes that initial spark, added to a devotion to learn, improve and grow.  Throw in decades of study, and teaching future watch makers...

like I said, it doesn't just "happen".

This BaselWorld marked the arrival of the Grand Complication 5 from Peter Roberts, and he was kind enough to spare me some time to talk about it, and a bit about himself as well.

And now, a few minutes with Peter Roberts -

What's Cool?

One of the best things I've seen so far you will not find in any booth at BaselWorld.  But to know what's coming, we've got to remind ourselves of where it came from.  This is Peter Robert's "student" watch from when he attended WOSTEP.  At that time it was the first watch with five different centrally mounted hands.
