  Ep. 26 A New Collectors Journey

  Aug 4, 20261h 2m

  Many of us are seasoned watch collectors that have become jaded from negative comment sections or looking at watches one way for too long. That is why we thought having a talk with someone who is somewhat newer to the hobby would help us all gain some perspective. We came across Flavia because she was a listener who mentioned us in a post who had a great article in her Substack about how an early purple Swatch worn to a law internship interview shaped the way she viewed watches. In the past two years she has gone from buying a neo vintage Tag Heuer Formula 1 to having a spreadsheet to help track all the watches that have come in and out of her collection in between visiting Watches and Wonders. Take a listen to her journey, it just might help you rediscover some of your passion.

  Ep. 25 New Lorier and Internet comment sections

  Jul 28, 202648 min

  While Breitling was coming out with some cushion shaped chronographs and we were all filling out a MoonSwatch application the official relaunch of Lorier was announced. With Worn and Wound moving from journalism with a shop to also owning a watch brand came a small retooling of the look of Lorier. Many on the internet shared their opinion and it had us thinking about another event that happened with Hodinkee this week and our experience with internet comment sections both good and bad.

  Ep. 23 The Good and Bad of last week in watches

  Jul 14, 202637 min

  Last week Christopher Ward unveiled a limited edition collaboration with The Dial Artist that had us smiling while the new Vacheron 34.5mm Overseas had us questioning what the brand stands for anymore. To wrap it all up François-Henri Bennahmias, the old CEO of AP teases a new brand that he is naming N3W5. A name that is pronounced news that already feels like old news.

  Ep. 22 Watch Community Collabs

  Jun 29, 202652 min

  It used to be that most watch brands would work with a group of collectors to create a custom club watch. In today's watch world many of the more expensive established brands ignore the enthusiast for the general consumer. That is where newer brands have come in with a focus on building a community. Annette and Mark talk about how some watch brands are willing to do just about anything for the watch community and Annette's recent experience with Maurice LaCroix. A experience where the brand brought together different members of the watch community to help create a watch for the 250th Anniversary of America's independence.
