Introduction

Ever since the inception of Lengbeau, we've made it clear that we want to become a blog that does so much more than just delivering product information and copy-pasting press releases. We believe in the notion that what makes horology truly an interesting subject to write about, are really, the people and stories behind it. The watchmakers. The human beings doing amazing things in their watches of choice. The craftsmanship. The connections between the watch community and the world at large waiting to be uncovered, and narrated. 

And that's when we thought: why don't we create a column and invite watch collectors of all sorts to come over and share with us their personal experience and stories? Heck, we can even take a picture or two of their prized possessions so we can share all of these with our readers too. So we thought, and so we did. Today, we bring you our inaugural "My Watches and I" instalment with Alex Lau, a successful wealth planner cum watch collector who happens to have a really fine taste especially when it comes to collecting independent timepieces, certainly not the least of which a unique Laurent Ferrier he has help ed design. Our founder Jason Mai has recently caught up with him and below is their conversation and of course, there will be pictures. Read on and enjoy Alex's unique watch collecting journey.
