Naas is one of the most well-respected, well-regarded watch journalists in the world, traveling the globe to re-discover time again and again.

Naas has authored six books on watches (Jewels of Time, Great Timepieces of the World, Masters of the Millennium, Master Wristwatches, and two editions of Times of Arabia), and has written for such esteemed newspapers as the New York Times, Bloomberg and Bloomberg Business Week, Wall Street Journal, Herald Tribune, Financial Times, Robb Report and Elite Traveler. She  has a column on Forbes (Perfect Timing) and contributes to other on-line platforms such as TheWatchPages, HighSnobiety and JingDaily.
