Watches: What Makes Me Tick – Architect Mr Claudio Silvestrin

It’s been a daily companion for many years, but Mr Claudio Silvestrin didn’t hesitate when Mr Giorgio Armani asked if he could borrow his watch. “It’s like he instantly fell in love with it,” the acclaimed architect says. “And I think that it told him that I too had very particular tastes.” Perhaps Armani was in thrall, as so many Italian men are, Silvestrin suggests, to “watches that are a bit show-off. Italian men tend to wear expensive watches because they can’t afford the Ferrari. So, I think it was a revelation for him.”
