In the Flesh: Seoul Watch Photo Report

This weekend I was fortunate enough to be able to make a trip to Seoul. I thought this would be a great opportunity to check out a couple watch hot spots. Looking for both the newest models and some vintage ones, I was able to see fantastic pieces and meet some great people. Here are some photos of my impromptu trip. Special thanks to the folks at the Hyundai Dept Store in Gangnam where  you can find Breitling, Breguet, Cartier, Hublot, IWC, JLC, Montblanc, Panerai, Piaget, Rolex, TAG Heuer, Vacheron Constantin, and Zenith. Another special thanks to Mr. Kim at Han Sung Antiques in the Iteawon District for all your vintage needs. Mr. Kim’s shop is a family owned business that has been around for over 40 years. They have a wealth of knowledge and the ability to service any of your needs — including repairing an almost 70 year old Breitling. And if you ask nicely he may even open his safe and show his personal collection. Check out our Seoul Watch Photo Report after the jump.
