Antiquaire is a venture between three enterprising individuals, each with distinct and eclectic tastes.  The common thread between us is that we each have a pronounced appreciation for fine objects that have endured the test of time.

Stan Berk is a semi-retired attorney with a predilection towards vintage Automobiles and Golfing implements, world travel, and a longtime side interest in watches.  Arguably he is the real mover and shaker of the group, always ardently pursuing the next compelling endeavor.  Never at a loss for words, or opinions.

Christine Wells-Berk is a very active member of the medical community, with decades of experience as a trained Nuclear Technologist.  Chris has more recently been implementing Medical Call Center solutions on a national level for more than ten years.  Her passions are numerous and varied, ranging from her love of the discovery and restoration of interesting furniture, to funky jewelry making. To say that her interest in world travel is keen is an understatement.  The venues in which she has worked, lived, and played would make Rick Steves give her a nod.  Her newfound appreciation of vintage watches emerged after she was gifted a solid gold Bulova from 1947.

Jimmy Flynn is a Graduate Gemologist, having completed the required studies in Santa Monica in 1988.  Prior to that he was a jewelry designer, primarily focused on Wax Modeling for the jewelry trade.  He also is a vintage auto enthusiast, though perhaps not at the level of Stan.  Additionally, local artists and watches of all eras are subjects he is deeply immersed in.  His interest in horological matters was developed while doing research for performing appraisals for fine watches, a sub-topic of routine jewelry appraisal.  Jimmy is the hopeless "watch geek" of this trio.
