Jan: The Mondani name is almost synonymous with (vintage) Rolex, but there is a lot more to your repertoire than just that. Which other brands or watch models have your particular interest?
Giorgia: Yes this is because the Mondani Books are 90% about Rolex (and Patek) and because my father is one of the biggest experts and collectors. I am a collector myself as is my husband, so our world will always be connected to Rolex. We have a nice relationship with them and truly appreciate what this company does.
But my new company Mondani Web, gave me the chance to collaborate with many brands that produce amazing timepieces, from the sport one to the most complicated and now I appreciate (and wear) some other brands such as Meccaniche Veloci, Formex and more. I truly love Omega as well and we bought our first Speedmaster with the new Ultraman (which I consider a good investment).
The Queen of Rolex! She sounds like a very likeable person. Have only briefly crossed paths at Baselworld. Amazing that of all the watches she’s wearing the Speedmaster.
I have personally used Mondani Web in the past (and a trusted dealer) so there’s that 🙂
Follow her for a long time on Instagram. They do seem to be everywhere all the time. Didnt know they also covered Patek books #shameonme
You are not alone my friend 😉
I’m not sure what the travel schedule is, but it seems very very busy for sure. I believe they do Miami as well in principal, you should reach out – very friendly people
“Making a reference book is very difficult and you must be 100% sure of what you say because you cannot cancel what you write on paper.” – this! Imagine writing a reference book for an audience stressing out over every little detail and getting something wrong 💀 I can not even imagine how difficult it has to be set a book on “final” and send it to the printer 😅
Seeing how often I need to correct the articles after publishing, I’d need a great editor before going anywhere near print 😅
Just seen this in the Mondani story on Insta and came to read it here. Thanks for posting this guys! Looks like i have to follow the articles a bit closer here 👏👏👏
Definitely a few key books any aspiring rolex collector needs in his arsenal. Probably the most read books in our house 👍
5711 for the birthday, dang 😀
