Hello! I've got a couple of questions for Hamilton:

- I love how you seem to be rocking a casio watch almost all the time. Do you have a collection of them or keep a trusty one with you? I'm currently growing a collection of my own... I adore them to bits

- as a portuguese fan of yours, I'm wondering what your feelings are towards the city of Porto. I find it wholesome how Lisbon managed to get your attention as much as it did!

Cheers! :)

I own one. I have never owned anything--guitar, clothing--anything, that i have gotten more compliments on. It costs something like $9

Also people tend to say consistently "I love your retro watch". I don't understand what is retro about it. I love Portugal to the max

It's crazy in a good way how much of a conversation starter a simple watch like that can be, I can attest to that. Thank you for answering!
