WHAT HE SAYS ABOUT PRIM WRISTWATCHES: „I was born exactly on the edge of Zodiac signs of Cancer and Leo. As a Leo I hate mediocrity, I’m a stickler for accuracy and perfectionism, hardly bearing failures. I try to find a joy in everything I do. As a Cancer, I like security, safety, try to avoid abrupt changes and turmoils, I feel good in what I'm used to and what has a taste of tradition. This is why I was captivated by watches PRIM, definitely not ordinary, while not spectacular, watches, the brand of successful people, watches with a tradition and imprint from conservatism, the brand still fighting for a place in the sun. That is also why I was so attracted by SPARTAK model, exactly fitting my nature. On the top of that, PRIM watches remind me my "teenage" years, and what is more exciting period of life?"
