We're Not Your Typical Watch Dealers
Most watch dealers started with watches. We started with curiosity that refused to stay in one lane.
Robert Johnston has been collecting luxury watches for 25 years, but timepieces were never the whole story. There were the years in luxury eyewear sales, working with high end luxury brands like Chanel and Prada—where Italian craftsmanship met French prestige. The exotic car deals, where a Lamborghini became currency. The 12+ years in accounting and finance, learning to read value beyond price tags. Then came aviation—pilot's certificate, flying private jets, brokering Beechcraft and Dassault aircraft. Suddenly, he wasn't just navigating luxury markets. He was flying through them.
Dr. Barrett Johnston, Harvard-trained and a 15-year watch collector, balances medical precision with aesthetic appreciation. His collection extends to classic automobiles and fine art—a multi-dimensional perspective on rarity, provenance, and legacy value.
Together, we built The Crown's Collection to reflect how modern collectors actually operate: fluidly across asset classes, with deep relationships and deeper knowledge. We don't just know watches—we speak fluent Ferrari, fine art, and Patek Philippe.
High-end expertise. Zero pretension. Welcome to The Crown's Collection.
