Iconic Watches & Stories From The Men Who Wore Them

90€

At the heart of these pages are watches that have ceased to be mere objects and have become fixtures of a life. Each piece, whether modest or monumental, becomes a witness to a life lived, a silent companion that holds memories, emotions, and milestones at the wrist.

From inherited heirlooms to everyday companions, from the first serious purchase to the watch worn on a defining day, these timepieces are never just objects. They are gifts, promises, tokens of love, symbols of achievement, or reminders of those who are no longer here, and Hranek lets each of these stories unfold with warmth and authenticity.

THE STORY

In this book, Matt Hranek brings together everything that makes watchmaking so rich and compelling: 66 stories of iconic watches and the men who wore them day after day. Personal, sometimes intimate, and always sincere, these accounts give each timepiece a deeply human and emotional dimension.

From Fred Astaire to Walter Schirra, Nas to Paul Newman or Sylvester Stallone, A Man & His Watch reveals what lies behind each watch: a memory, a moment in life, a lasting attachment. It is a book to explore slowly, to read and reread, much like one would return to a favourite collection of timeless tales.

THE EDITION

This edition also features the story of the watch that inspired the creation of Joseph Bonnie, told through a portrait of its founder, Gabriel Vachette.

A unique opportunity to discover the roots of the brand and to understand how a watch, far beyond its function, can become the starting point of a human and creative adventure.
