Post Event Report: The Speedy Tuesday Event World Tour Singapore.

The Speedy Tuesday Event World Tour which debuted in Milan this May and had since made its way to Singapore. In June, I had the honour to attend the event and to meet Robert-Jan Broer, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Fratello Watches for the first time.

Besides helming one of the most prominent horological online magazines, Robert is famously known as the man who sold his car to buy a Speedmaster (ref 145.012-67 with the 321 movement) when he was a student back in 1999.

His love for the Speedmaster also led him coining the term “Speedy Tuesday” and the rest, as they say, is history!

Sharing the pics I took at the spectacular event...
