Collectors Corner NY
Our Story
Wes Wynne
I remember building model planes with my grandfather and admiring the 1970’s era Rolex on his wrist. We shared many of these moments together, and when his watch was handed down to me, I became the bearer of this time capsule, representing all of these memories. His watch ultimately set me on the path of collecting, and ever since I’ve been fascinated with horology.
Watches have played a significant role in my life, and while I’ve collected for years, in 2020 I decided to found CCNY. My goal from the onset has been to build upon the vintage watch community by finding pieces with unique provenance, and hunting the highest condition grade examples possible. This type of sourcing is much more difficult but it takes a lot of leg work out for my clients. My inventory is a reflection of my values: condition above all else when it comes to collecting.
Prior to CCNY, I worked in music marketing for over a decade at Columbia Records, Rolling Stone, and SONGS Music Publishing. Making music and playing vintage guitars will always be a passion of mine, alongside photography and classic cars.
I hope you enjoy browsing the collection. I take pride in creating a personal relationship with each and every client, and I sincerely look forward to connecting and advising you.
