A DAY IN THE LIFE OF AURO MONTANARI

VELLUS AUREUM

Auro Montanari, a world-renowned watch collector, lives elegantly. Everything he does – including the rituals that he lives by – is deeply considered. In a series of intimate portraits, he shares what he considers to be the real luxuries in life. They aren't all tangible, nor can they all be acquired – rather, they are the result of a fulfilling existence.


Shot in his villa in the north of Italy, Auro Montanari effortlessly embodies Vellus Aureum – capturing moments in his studio where ambition meets craftsmanship.
