THE HOROLOGY MASTER

It is said that one part of horology is about creation, while another is about being an expert in the field to make those constructions understood to the people. In the international society of watch experts and dealers, the Mondani family has a legacy. Giorgia Mondani, a 35-year-old native of Genoa, Italy, name stands out due to her sheer knowledge of timers. There are not many women in this business. At times, among tons of men, she might be the only one, making a bid and taking the rare rollie home. Her equation with the tickers has been such that one of her first words was Rolex. After graduating in foreign languages, she completed her internship at Antiquorum and joined her family business 'Modani Books', one of the leading publishing houses in the field of collecting wristwatches. Their books are collector’s items available at major e-commerce sites. “Rolex Story,” one of the most expensive books is a limited edition of 300 pieces, priced at $2,130, and was sold out.
