“Excuse Me, Is That a Murakami on Your Wrist?”
GQ India|March 2022
These days, you can buy a painting for your wall, or one that keeps time, says GQ watch columnist Nick Foulkes.
“Excuse Me, Is That a Murakami on Your Wrist?”

SOME OF THE MOST important artists of the 20th century were inveterate watch fiends. Picasso had a collection that any Hodinkee reader would drool over; it included, among others, a Rolex GMT-Master, a Jaeger-LeCoultre Triple Date Moonphase, and, for good measure, a Patek Philippe Triple Date Moonphase. Warhol was even more obsessed: He amassed a collection of 313 watches, including Rolexes, Patek Philippes, Piagets, and the various Cartiers he was known to wear (but not wind). Even today, Hockney is rarely pictured without one of several slim gold wristwatches poking out from under his cardigan sleeves.
