My story
I'm Alexander Schmidt, founder of "Finer Things" in Cologne's Rheinauhafen district. The company has been around since 2022, but my journey began much earlier.
My fascination with high-quality watches and jewelry began in 2008 with the purchase of my first Rolex Submariner (Ref. 16610). Since then, my collection has expanded and my interest in luxury watches has intensified.
I love expanding my knowledge of vintage and contemporary watch models, their movements, and the watch market. Over more than 10 years, I've cultivated friendships with collectors and dealers to offer my customers a wide selection of diverse watch brands. This is how Finer Things came to be.
My goal is to design Finer Things in such a way that buying our products becomes an experience for customers, characterized by competence, reliability and transparency.
