1) Name (or nickname) and location
Fabrizio, Italy.
2) In terms of the Heuers, what is the focus of your collection and approximately how many watches are in your collection?
Small to Medium, and thinning down. Quite focused a collection: mainly Lemania 5100's and a few Autavias - the right ones for me.
Though it will sound like anathema, no interest at all in the Monaco or Silverstone lines or the others.
I like the military / aviation theme first and racing second, the 'tool watch' is mostly the one for me.
3) What other brands of watches (or other type of objects) do you collect?
Am steadily quitting Omega - which was my first 'watch love' - save the essential Moonwatch; I own a few Sinns, it's definitely become my no.2 brand.
For the brands I like, I also like to have a few memorabilia like bag, t-shirt, catalogues - if they come in cheap enough: I am not the one for red Heuer boxes :-)!
4) Do you own any TAG Heuers, and are they "vintage" (older) or modern?
One: but I'd like to count it as half-TAG, half-vintage as it's the Carrera 1964 re-edition that started the whole re-issue frenzy. And it's just 'Heuer' all over the place, not a single 'TAG' anywhere.
