Why every milestone in the life of Dr Z Teo comes with a watch
The Aivee Group CEO Dr Z Teo sat down with Tatler GMT to share the milestones and memories behind his collection of timepieces A watch, for some, is just an accessory—but for Dr Z Teo, it's a reminder of life's most meaningful events. 'I always told myself that for every milestone, I'll buy myself a watch—so there's a memory attached to it,' the aesthetic doctor and entrepreneur says. 'It's a symbol of a particular stage in my life.' Teo's journey into collecting began when he was growing up in Singapore, with his father's passion for timepieces serving as an instrumental influence. Today, his collection is as much about aesthetics as it is about sentiment, with each piece taking him back to monumental moments in his life—achievements and memories worth preserving. From his first watch, a blue G-Shock earned after acing a school exam, to his current favourite, a diamond-studded Rolex Datejust 41, Teo doesn't view watches as investments, but as extensions of his identity. Veering away from the sentimentality wrapped around his collection, Teo also views a watch as an aspirational tool. 'It's something to inspire you in pushing yourself farther and rewarding yourself with every success,' he adds. In this interview, The Aivee Group CEO shares more about his collection—from his most memorable timepiece to his favourite destinations for watch shopping and more. In case you missed it: Radically refined: Bvlgari's defining turn at Watches and Wonders 2025 Above Teo's personal collection includes: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph, Rolex Datejust 41 in Mother of Pearl with diamond dial, Rolex Yachtmaster II in yellow gold, Patek Philippe Calatrava, and Roger Dubuis Easy Diver Spider

KL court fines Chinese national RM20,000 for cheating man out of 3 Rolex watches
KUALA LUMPUR: The Sessions court fined an information technology executive from China RM20,000 today after he pled guilty to cheating a man out of three Rolex watches worth more than RM140,000 last month. Wu Zhiwei, 27, pleaded guilty to an alternative charge after it was read out to him before judge Azrul Darus. Azrul ordered Wu to serve 12 months in jail if he failed to pay the fine. Wu was charged with cheating the victim into handing over two Rolex Datejust 41 watches and a Black Submariner, all worth RM146,657, at a restaurant in Jalan Khoo Teik Ee between June 4 and 16. The charge under Section 417 of the Penal Code provides for five years in jail, a fine or both upon conviction. In mitigation, lawyer Tan Cheng Yee said the accused did not have a criminal record. "He was remanded for five days and that served as a lesson for him. "He is remorseful and hopes the court will consider a reduced sentence." According to the facts of the case, the victim handed over the watches to Wu after he claimed his friends would make payments for him through online transfers. The friends later said although they had received money from Wu, the money reverted back to him. Deputy public prosecutor Wafa Zainal Abidin said the accused should be given a proportionate sentence as a lesson.

Pete Davidson splurges 30k to 'surprise' Elsie Hewitt with lavish gift
Pete Davidson "surprised" Elsie Hewitt by splashing out more than $30,000 on matching watches. The former Saturday Night Live star and his girlfriend attended the grand opening of the Gerald Peters Watch + Jewelry showroom in his native Staten Island, New York, on Friday (27.06.25) and not only did he buy himself a flashy new Rolex timepiece, he then paid for a second one as a gift for Elsie. Sources told the New York Post newspaper's Page Six column that Pete treated himself to an $18,550 Rolex Datejust 41 in Oystersteel and Everose Gold, and then "surprised" Elsie with the matching petite version of the watch, a Rolex Datejust 31 mm, also in Oystersteel and Everose Gold, which retails at $12,400. Both watches were designed with 18-carat pink gold alloy, but the King of Staten Island actor's was also fitted with diamond hour markers. Pete arrived early to the event so he could buy the watches and enjoy a private tour of the showroom. A source said: 'Pete was in an awesome mood, cracking jokes, chatting watches, and taking photos with friends." Another guest at the event said the 31-year-old comic "couldn't have been sweeter.' They added: 'He took pictures with people and he was proud of the store and kept talking about how much he loves supporting Staten Island." Pete and Elsie went public with their romance in March and in May, the 29-year-old model gushed her boyfriend is the "best person" she's ever met. She told People magazine: 'He is so incredible. Honestly, best person I've ever met, and I'm so grateful ...' The couple recently attended the Endometriosis Foundation of America's 13th Annual Blossom Ball in New York City together, making their red carpet debut as a couple, and Elsie shared how Pete supports her when she is dealing with her own endometriosis. She said: 'It was just really important to both of us to come here and support the foundation and keep helping, spreading the word and educating people. 'Pete sets me up with a little heating pad, and it's very sweet, and I just eat whatever. I'm like, I will allow myself to eat whatever I want and just snuggle up and watch a movie. 'Everyone deserves a Pete!' While the pair have only been together for a few months, it was recently revealed that they are already living together. An insider told People: 'Pete and Elsie have been living together in New York for the past few months. They're splitting their time between Pete's house in upstate New York and a brownstone they recently started renting in Brooklyn. "They're so happy together and doing great.' Pete's most recent relationship before Elsie was with 'Outer Banks' actress Madelyn Cline eight months ago. And Elsie was most recently linked to actor Jason Sudeikis. She also previously dated Ryan Phillippe.
