Bader Belselah (@bader_belselah), collector
What’s to love? I’ve bumped into Bader at various watchmaking events and he’s always had an incredible watch on his wrist. In response to my questions, he confided that this passion was born during his childhood. Deeply impressed by seeing his grandfather change watches throughout the day, he wanted to imitate him. His first purchase was the Cartier Tank.
Why follow? A look at the three timepieces selected from his collection gives an idea of the quality of what he posts, as Bader loves to share photos of his collection and his luxurious lifestyle on Instagram.

Founder of the super trendy Kith streetwear boutiques, Ronnie Fieg arrived on the watchmaking scene this year, participating with TAG Heuer in the launch of a new version of the Formula 1, complete with the “Kith Heuer” logo. Fieg is an avid collector of 1990s memorabilia, including sneakers, cars and watches. The Formula 1 was his first watch as a youngster.
Why follow ? For fans of vintage design, you’ll find a fine selection of exclusive items in his temple of cool, including the Kith Heuer Formula 1. He also collaborates with MAD Paris and Casablanca in relaunching Contax cameras in limited editions, as well as with others such as Bose, Columbia and Adidas for capsule collections.
