After some time with this clasp, the Micro-Adjust CTS Deployant Clasp, and some time to really test it, I’ve come to a conclusion. Micro adjustment is a brilliant thing, I think most of us can agree on that. Putting micro adjustment on a CTS clasp is even more brilliant. Why? Because once you size a CTS strap, you can never get it longer than what you’ve cut it in to. So what if you cut it in the winter, when it’s cold outside and your wrist size doesn’t change as much as in the summer? Well, that would mean that the strap would be less wearable on a hot summer day, right? That is unless you’ve brought the correct tools with you, to resize the clasp, but that is not at all efficient and at least I would not have the energy to resize it multiple times a day if it requires a tool and loose parts that can be lost on the go. This is where the micro adjustment clasp is shining the most, to be able to adjust in just a few seconds, on the go, without any tools is just fantastic! What would I even do without on the go micro adjustment, it’s a life saver.

So from the start when I first got the clasp, it was a bit stiff to resize. But, thankfully it just needed a couple of adjustments during the first day or two to loosen up, and now it’s just perfect.

The conclusion here is yes please, if you haven’t figured that out yet. Go get one, for real.

Today is all sunny weather and drinks on the porch, enjoying some off time. Hope you’re having a great day as well ☀️

Hot take: the snowflake hand is the best thing Tudor ever did 🛡️❄️

You either get it, or you don’t.

Some say it’s too bold, too different, too… much. But that’s exactly why I love it. In a world of safe, familiar designs, the snowflake refuses to blend in. It’s unapologetically distinct, a signature that instantly tells you what you’re looking at, even from across the room.

And honestly, that’s something I’ll always love. When a brand, whether it’s a microbrand or a big name, dares to create a signature detail. Something unmistakable, that instantly tells you a story. Something you can recognize immediately. And that’s why I have a lot of respect for brands like Tusenö for example, who dared to go their own way and developed one of the coolest hour hands in the industry.

For me, it’s not just a hand. It’s character. It’s history. It’s that perfect imbalance that somehow makes the whole watch feel more alive.

I call the snowflake hand iconic. I love it.

What’s your take on the snowflake hand? Let’s vote!😁

A little throwback to this Rolex 14060 I had the chance to shoot about a year ago, borrowed from a friend, captured in a different chapter of life. Funny how photos can hold more than just a subject. They carry a whole moment in time.
Since then, a lot has changed.
After a long wait, we finally moved out of our small apartment and into a house we bought last April. It’s been almost a full year of anticipation, planning, and imagining what life would feel like once it was finally ready. On April 1st, we got the keys and everything started moving at once.
The past days (and honestly, weeks) have been a blur of boxes, late nights, small decisions, and constant reorganizing. Not much time for Instagram, or even picking up the camera properly. But now, things are slowly starting to settle. We’re unpacking, finding places for everything, and beginning to make the space feel like home.
One of the things I’m most excited about is finally having my own photo studio. My first ever. It’s not ready yet, not even close, but that’s part of the process. I have a lot of ideas for what it will become, and I’m taking it step by step, building it the right way over time.
We’ve also got a guest room ready for friends and family, and an office space that’s already starting to feel productive. It’s a big change from where we started, and I’m just trying to take it all in while we settle into this new chapter.

For now, I’m revisiting moments like this shoot, a reminder of where things were not too long ago.
More to come soon.
