Legendary watch maker passed away.
Jul 11 2008,18:02 PM

I received an email today from the Beth Schulman that her grandfather Allan Tornek passed away on July 1st. He passed away extremely quickly, and had a service in Miami that was attended by a lot of good family friends. I think she summed him up best by saying “He was as cool as his watches he made”. And that is one cool watch. You can check out the obituary below.

All my best to the Family.
