About 15 minutes after our last auction, Eric Wind said, "Ok 2 years from now- 2024- we will have another watch auction".
Eric was a key player in our watch auction. Honestly, we would not have had the success we did without him. He was formally the VP Vintage watch specialist for Christie's Auction house and today he dedicates his time to his own company, Wind Vintage, which specializes in Vintage Watches. He is a go getter, and we are beyond grateful for the hours, connections and expertise he put into the watch auction. We trust him a lot, so when he says "let's do it again".. we get excited.
Not surprisingly my dad, Doug LaViolette, gets excited about a lot of things watch related.
When he saw a limited edition watch- a collaboration by Nivada and Revolution that highlighted a game that Brian and I played-he got really excited. A wristwatch showcasing PacMan markers brought back some fun memories for all of us.
When it arrived close to Christmas, the "No Barracuda", with a limited edition of 150, he couldn't believe his eyes, he got 123. 1-23.
Brian's Birthday.
