Exploring: Stephex Masters

As you know, anything Horological & Handcrafted gets our nod here. In a new column ‘Exploring’, we’re taking you with us as we go out exploring a bit further away from our typical horological avenues. For good measure, there are a couple of watches in here as well though…

For our first photo report, we’ve not strayed too far from the watch world as you will see. Here we are with a photo report covering the Stephex Masters. Stephex Masters is an international show-jumping event, which takes place just outside of Brussels every year. It is an absolutely glorious way to spend time with friends & family. In fact it is such an outstanding event that the likes of Bill Gates, Michael Bloomberg, Roman Abramovitsj etc… travel all the way to the Brussels outskirts just for this event.

The events key partners are a.o. Rolex & our friends at Maison De Greef . As a result there’s plenty of watch spotting to be done. Perhaps you’ll join us next year 😉
