Fremstar, who though choosing to remain anonymous, is a true watch lover and collector in sense that he enjoys the hunt just as much as he enjoys sharing space and his pieces with those that share his passion. The episode is titled, Madvillainy, in honor of the classic avantgarde hip hop album produced by Mad Lib and MF Doom 19 years ago this Spring. There is a shared spirit between Fremstar and Doom. The fine line between wanting to share something magnificent with the world while also maintaining anonymity. Enjoy!
