Weekend Report: Inside The Alfa Romeo Museum
July 02, 2017
There isn't a single world that lives closer to that of collectible watches than collectible cars. In many ways, the two categories and the people who support them are kindred C all hoping to keep alive a tradition of thoughtful design and hand-craft that has long since been abandoned by even the very companies that originally practiced them. So much in the same way that I was thrilled to present you photos from within the halls of the Patek Philippe Museum, I am equally excited to share photos from within the Alfa Romeo Museum outside Milan. Why? Because if you like great mechanical watches then you're bound to like what Alfa has done over the years C and it's the Sunday of a holiday weekend so we thought we'd give you something you can just sit back and enjoy.
