Nicolas Rapp
Emerging Expert & Watch Market Connector
“Collecting has always been part of our family. I started trading sneakers as a teenager and built up my first capital that way. At 16, I shifted into watches – and I’ve been hooked ever since. There’s so much to learn and discover. I’ve developed a strong network, and I’m passionate about helping Rapp’s watch division grow further.”
