Even though time remains a consistent entity, how we perceive it and what we attach to it can be as diverse as the individuals marking its passage. One such individual who has been deeply entwined with the business of time is Roy Davidoff. His tryst with time began early, being born into a family of jewelers. Geneva, the cradle of horology, nurtured his youthful curiosity about timekeeping devices, influencing his later decision to make this passion his profession.
Not content with the status quo and fueled by a thirst for knowledge and experience, Davidoff moved to Miami. However, the call of his homeland and its rich horological heritage was too strong, and he returned to Switzerland. His homecoming was marked by a series of collaborations with esteemed brands like Bovet and Jacob & Co.
A classy blend of skill and fashion, Keith Mitchell’s final par on the 72nd hole of the U.S. Open was as stylish as his wrist accessory – a unique Laurent Ferrier watch. Mitchell’s informal induction to the world of watches came courtesy of a short appearance on Ben Clymer Presents, sparking a fascination that has seen him build an impressive assortment of Rolex and Patek Philippe timepieces among others. Drawing parallels between his cherished watches and putters, the golf-ace pointed out his continued preference for the more traditional Scotty Cameron over any recent addition. This affection for the classic can also be noticed in his collection, from his love for G-Shock to a unique Tweety Bird Baby G. The mystery of a stolen family Rolex adds a poignant narrative to Mitchell’s horological story.
