He has more than 20 years experience in watch collecting and repairs, and a very loyal following. His main business is finding high quality authentic vintage watches for his customers and doing \u201csimple\u201d repairs. \u201cI got into watches because of their mechanics,\u201d he says. He can fix most watch brands (and Le Coultre Atmos clocks).

His customers are international buyers and the new generation of Chinese collectors looking to demonstrate wealth and connoisseurship. \u201cOnce it was all about Rolex, but mainland Chinese are travelling now and want to demonstrate greater knowledge\u201d. Andrew\u2019s main job is CEO of a manufacturing company.
