   This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, it’s a special episode with the three founders: Zach Weiss, Blake Malin, and James Helms. On the occasion of Worn & Wound’s tenth anniversary, Zach, Blake, and James sit down to reflect on where the website has been, where it’s going, and the many highs and lows along the way. They also answer questions submitted by you about topics ranging from the status of the Windup Watch Fair, what they’d do differently if they started the blog today, dream Worn & Wound collaborations, and more. This is a great conversation whether you’ve been with Worn & Wound since the beginning, or have just discovered the site, and offers a lot of insight into how the company has grown into what it is today.

2. The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep. 189: Genre Bending Watches

   9 juni 2021 · 49 min

   Afspelen
   This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re asking the age old question: what’s in a name? Not in the Shakespearean sense, but in the world of watches, what we call these things that we strap to our wrist can have an outsized impact on how we perceive them. We take Zach Weiss’s recent review of the Grand Seiko SBGE225 as the jumping off point to try to decide what, exactly, this watch is, sitting somewhere adjacent to a travel watch, a sports watch, and even a dive watch. In the end, does it really matter? Does a watch need to fit neatly into a certain genre for it to hold an appeal, or is the opposite true? Lees meer

   We also talk about some of the content to appear on the site in the last week, including a new limited edition from Oris, and Blake’s review of a highly anticipated new watch from Citizen, dubbed simply “The Citizen.” This one proved to be something of a love-it or hate-it release, so let us know where you stand in the comments or on Instagram.

   Be sure to let us know how you feel watches that seem to bend genres, and what your favorite #GADA watches are, and why.

3. Ep. 188: The Week in Review, and the Importance of Timekeeping Certifications

   2 juni 2021 · 52 min

   Afspelen
   This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re looking back at the last week in watches, including some recent reviews of some new summer ready divers from Oris, and a big release from Tudor that we had no luck in predicting. We’re also asking some big questions, including whether or not to strike up a conversation with potential watch enthusiasts on a plane, and what beers are best positioned for a G-Shock collaboration. But our main topic this week is a focus on timekeeping, and specifically the ins and outs of METAS certification, and how important it is (or isn’t) in our daily lives. How accurate does a watch really need to be, anyway? Are you always checking time.gov or another trusted time signal to see how accurately your watch is running? There are a lot of different perspectives here, and a variety of ways to appreciate accurate timekeeping, and we touch on almost all of them. This is a good one for the chronometry nerds among us.

4. Ep. 187: Limited Editions, Value in Complications, and Predicting a New Tudor Release

   26 mei 2021 · 48 min

   Afspelen
   It’s been a busy week in the watch world, and we’re covering a lot of ground in this week’s Worn & Wound podcast to get to as much watch news as we can. First, we take you through the all new Zodiac x Worn & Wound Super Sea Wolf Limited Edition, our latest collaboration, and an LE that’s been in the works for a long time. Zach Weiss is here this week to talk about the wide ranging design influences that went into this Super Sea Wolf with a heavy 90s vibe. If sneakers and outdoor gear mean anything to you, and you have a fondness for bold colors in your watches, you’ll want to give this a listen. Lees meer

   We also spend some time talking about the current state of limited editions following the release of new watches from Ming x Massena Lab as well as Kurono Tokyo. These brands took different approaches with their big releases last week, with wildly different results. We want to put the question to our listeners: what’s the right way to release a limited edition watch in 2021?

   Next, we discuss some of the watches featured in our recent guide to finding value in exotic complications. From Frederick Constant to Gorilla, there’s a world of complications out there that represent a ton of value compared to watches that cost several times as much, and it’s an interesting exercise to pick a handful and look at the highest end and entry level. If you have a favorite value oriented complication that would normally be found in a much higher priced watch, be sure to leave it in the comments.

   And finally, we take our best guesses at predicting the latest release from Tudor. Anyone who has played this particular game before knows how difficult it is (did anyone figure that a sterling silver Black Bay Fifty-Eight would be making its way to us this year?), but we didn’t let that stop us from laying out some fairly wild guesses.

5. Ep. 186 Ming, Bell & Ross, & More New Releases

   This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Weiss, Blake Buettner, and Zach Kazan take a look at some of the most interesting new releases we’ve seen since the Watches & Wonders fair. In this new post-Baselworld era, we’re quickly learning that big trade shows won’t be the only time brands unveil new products, and both large and small watchmakers have introduced a variety of interesting pieces in the short time since Watches & Wonders closed. We thought this was as good a time as any to take stock of some of those new releases, including some cocktail inspired watches by Bell & Ross (released in collaboration with The Rake and Revolution) and a surprise new release from Ming and Massena Lab (on sale tomorrow, May 20 at 10:30am EST), only at Massena Lab’s website. There’s also (of course) a new green watch to discuss, and a follow up to one of our favorite watches from last year by Serica. Lees meer

   This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, it’s Q&A time. You sent us your questions, and we’re doing our best to answer them on this episode. We spend some time talking about collecting strategy and what we want to see when we look into the watch box, what might be coming soon from Tudor, and also dive deep into the idea of celebrity marketing, at least as conceived by Georges Kern (if you want to check out the video we reference in the pod, set aside about 20 minutes and click here).

   On this week’s Worn & Wound podcast, we’re joined by Max Busser. Max is a longtime veteran of the watch industry, and has spent time at Harry Winston and Jaeger LeCoultre in addition to heading his own brand, MB&F. This year marks ten years of the MB&F Legacy Machine, and Max takes us through the unlikely history of these watches and his brand, and discusses many of the lessons he’s learned working in watches all these years. He also gives us a tantalizing look at the future, including the possibility of an accessible MB&F creation at some point down the road. Lees meer

   While the watches Max and his team create are no doubt expensive and rare, we think that his attitude toward watches is unpretentious, refreshing, and will resonate with Worn & Wound readers. If you’re not familiar with MB&F, be sure to check out their website right here, and follow them on Instagram to see some truly spectacular horological creativity on display.

   This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re joined by writer, diver, podcast host, and, most recently, published novelist, Jason Heaton. Jason has been writing for Hodinkee from nearly the very beginning, and is a co-host of the Grey Nato podcast, which is definitely something you should be listening to if you’re not already subscribed. He also recently published his much anticipated first novel, Depth Charge, and we’re excited to have him on mic to talk about the journey of bringing his first novel to print. We also, of course, talk about watches, and get Jason’s thoughts on the state of the watch industry today and how it’s changed, and some of the new watches that have caught his attention. Lees meer

    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast it’s all things Watches & Wonders, and we’re happy to be joined by watch industry veteran Reginald Brack to talk through some of last week’s big releases. Reg has worked with StockX, the NPD Group, and as a consultant within the watch industry for years, and he has a depth of knowledge that makes him a perfect guest to discuss the aftermath of the year’s biggest watch trade show. And there’s a lot to take in, from surprising releases from the likes of Rolex and Tudor (including a couple of precious metal Black Bay Fifty-Eights) to solid entries from small brands not directly connected to Watches & Wonders, but have used the week to launch new watches.

    Today on the Worn & Wound podcast, we welcome Chris Grainger, the CEO of IWC. We talk to Chris about IWC’s latest tech-forward watches, take a deep dive into their unique ceratanium material, discuss the finer points of handset selection, and look forward to what IWC might have in store in the not too distant future. While we often associate IWC with their pilot’s watches, there’s a lot going on at the brand in terms of advancing new tech, and if you’re interested in interesting new watchmaking technologies, particularly as they relate to sports watches, you’ll want to give this one a listen. Lees meer

    Before our interview with Chris, take a look at what we think was some pretty big news to drop a few weeks ago, and that’s a new release from Frederique Constant. The Slimline Monolithic Manufacture uses a silicon oscillator as a replacement for the balance and balance spring, which is a pretty major technological advancement that few brands have even attempted, and Frederique Constant has accomplished at a price point far below the likes of some of the Swiss luxury brands that have played in this market. We break down the new tech and give our thoughts on what this means for the brand in the first half of the podcast.

    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast we’re talking about the culture of collecting with Nick Engvall of Sneaker History and Elhadji Mare, a Social Content Manager for StockX. Nick and Elhadji both come from the sneaker world, and as many listeners are likely aware, there is a ton of overlap between the watch and sneaker hobbies. Both areas of enthusiasm have gone through enormous growth over the past several years, so we thought it would be fun to have Nick and Elhadji on the podcast to talk about what’s important to them as sneaker collectors and enthusiasts, what’s changed in the hobby, and what watch collectors and sneaker heads can learn from one another. It’s a great conversation that does not require any level of sneaker expertise to enjoy, so we hope you dive in whether you’re a novice or pro when it comes to footwear. Lees meer

    Afspelen
    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re joined by special guest Kyle Snarr, Co-founder of Cantonment. Kyle’s been on the podcast before to chat about his brand and all things EDC, but today he joins us to take part in our semi-regular series where we look at a movie with a focus on time or with some notable watch content and dissect it from a watch enthusiast’s perspective. This week: James Cameron’s Aliens, his 1986 sequel to Ridley Scott’s classic Alien, and the second film in what would become a surprisingly durable franchise. Lees meer

    The watch content in Aliens is well known to many, with two classic Seikos designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro making prominent appearances. We talk about those watches in this conversation, as well as the lesser known Seiko Pulsemeter watch that also gets some screen time. And we also imagine what watch we’d choose if we were making an Alien film today, a task that’s not as simple as it sounds.

    We definitely think this podcast can be enjoyed even if you haven’t seen Aliens, but be warned that we do discuss some pretty major spoilers, so if for some reason you want to maintain the mystery a little longer on this 35 year old film, the pod should probably wait until after you’ve had a chance to see it. Once you’ve listened, be sure to let us know in the comments what your favorite movie in the Alien franchise is, and what watch from the movie you’d choose for yourself.

14. Ep. 177: A Watches & Wonders Preview, the Emergence of the Green Dial, and a Huge Kickstarter Debut

    It’s hard to believe, but we’re just a few weeks out from Watches & Wonders, and even though this trade show has gone digital, it feels like this represents something of a return to normalcy for the watch world. After all, we’ll be getting a ton of new release announcements from major brands, and in the span of a few days we’ll have a pretty good idea of what’s to come for the rest of the year. That certainly feels very pre-Covid, but the existence of this show itself, which has become the de facto trade show of record in a post-Basel world, represents an enormous sea change in the watch industry. This week on the Worn & Wound podcast we look ahead to Watches & Wonders and offer some of our best guesses (and hopes) as to what might be unveiled very soon in Geneva. Lees meer

    We also discuss the week that was in the watch world, including an impressive Kickstarter debut for Furlan Marri, and a trio of green dials that perhaps cement an emerging trend.

15. Ep. 176: Perception vs. Reality in the Watch Collecting Lifestyle

    10 maart 2021 · 1 uur 4 min

    Afspelen
    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re discussing the watch collecting lifestyle. It’s a big and somewhat loaded topic, but we wanted to talk about perception versus reality when it comes to watch collecting, the impact of social media on the hobby, and how the visibility of watches in our culture impacts us in large and subtle ways. This week, we’re lucky to be joined by one of our favorite Instagram follows, @watchsymmetry (Thomas, if you prefer to use, you know, real names). Along the way, we answer your questions about watch collecting and the current state of the hobby. Lees meer

    But before that, we talk about some of the key new releases of the past week. This week happened to see a long awaited hand wound chronograph from Hamilton, and some design forward new watches from Tissot and Maurice Lacroix that have proven to be somewhat polarizing, and mesh pretty well with some of the ideas within our main topic.

    This week’s episode is brought to you by Melbourne Watch and their new Collins automatic moonphase. Melbourne Watch is a familiar face to the enthusiast watch community, especially Worn & Wound readers. Founded in 2013, Melbourne is best known for producing stylish and affordable sport and dress watches that offer great value. Melbourne is back with the Collins, a classically-styled automatic moonphase, available in limited quantities at launch.

    Powered by the Swiss-made Sellita SW-280 automatic movement, the Collins moonphase display pays homage to the Australian night sky, depicting the Southern Cross star constellation.

16. Ep. 175: Reviewing a Big Week of Releases from Seiko and Grand Seiko

    3 maart 2021 · 1 uur 13 min

    Afspelen
    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re going deep on the barrage of recent releases from Seiko and Grand Seiko, discussing several of their new watches in depth, and answering your most pressing questions on the new releases. Last week saw the introduction of many new models, and served as a kickoff to Seiko’s big 140th anniversary. We’ve got new Alpinists, a dive watch paying tribute to a great Japanese mountaineer, and, at long last, an affordable Seiko GMT with local jumping hours in the Presage line. There’s a lot to talk about, and we frankly only scratched the surface, so if there’s a Seiko or Grand Seiko release announced recently that you particularly enjoy that we didn’t touch on, be sure to let us know in the comments.

17. Ep. 174: Buying Watches Online

    24 februari 2021 · 1 uur 7 min

    Afspelen
    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Blake Buettner, Blake Malin, and Zach Kazan run down the week that was in watches, and talk about a topic that’s certainly of interest to almost anyone reading this: purchasing watches online. More than ever, many of the biggest watch manufacturers are doing what the small brands have been doing for years: selling directly to consumers. We talk about how that’s impacting the hobby, the changing landscape of buying watches online, and our own experiences buying watches in almost every way you can imagine. We also discuss the culture of the limited edition, and how a quick sell-out can help a brand or retailer in the short term, but have unintended consequences in the long run. Lees meer

    And, of course, we cover all the big watch news and releases of the last week, including our own reviews of an iconic Grand Seiko, and a special Zenith chronograph.

    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re asking a simple question: If you could change one thing about any particular watch to make it perfect, what would it be? Even watches that we love have little quirks and imperfections that we’d love to change, and today Zach Weiss, Blake Buettner, and Zach Kazan are attacking the small details that we’d fix if we could. Odd lug widths, bracelet quibbles, and some inexplicable finishing choices are all on the table here. There might even be a date window discussion. How could there not be? Lees meer

    We also talk through some of the big watch news of the last week, including a major release from Grand Seiko, and our own review of the latest watch from the recently revived Nivada Grenchen.

    Since no watch is perfect, be sure to let us know what you’d change on your favorite watches in the comments section or on Instagram.

    Afspelen
    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Weiss, Blake Buettner, and Zach Kazan talk about something that’s been on all of our minds after a slew of recent releases: are all watches starting to look alike? Is it an accident? And, is it even a bad thing for new releases to resemble something from the past (or, in the case of some of the watches we talk about, the present). It’s a surprisingly thorny issue, with a whole lot of strongly held opinions (few words set off a debate in the watch world quite like “homage”). In this conversation, we touch on what brands hope to achieve when they borrow design elements from popular watches, the different ways those watches are received, and if any single watch can lay claim to owning that shiny black ceramic bezel.

    What do you think? Can a black dialed chronograph ever be completely original? Can an old brand be revived authentically? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below, or tag us on Instagram.

    This week on the podcast, the editorial team gets inverted to talk about Tenet, the latest action epic from Christopher Nolan, a filmmaker who is uniquely obsessed with time. We’re pretty big movie fans here, and since all of us just recently saw Tenet after its long awaited home video release, we took this opportunity to sit down and unpack some of its more time-twisting aspects, including how that Hamilton BeLOWZERO factors into the plot. Honestly, we’re still a little confused, but maybe that’s just part of the process. Let us know in the comments what you thought of Tenet, and how it stacks up to other time travel movies. And remember: this whole podcast is one big temporal pincer movement. Lees meer

    As an FYI to listeners, this podcast is full of spoilers for Tenet, so if you haven’t seen it yet and want to go in fresh, save the second half of this episode for after your first viewing of the film.

    This week’s episode of the Worn & Wound podcast is brought to you by Bulova and their new Precisionist X collection.

    Marking 10 years of technology and design innovation, Precisionist X is a new take on the classic Precisionist.

Limited to 100 pieces, the watch is presented in an elegant box with numbered serial card and plaque. Alongside that are two new Precisionist X Special Edition timepieces featuring top ring inserts made of Damascus steel, a famed type of steel recognizable by the wavy light and dark pattern of the metal and are available in either a black IP case with a green leather strap or a rose gold IP case with a brown leather strap. All models feature a distinct and unexpected octagonal 45x47mm case shape with unique dial treatments offering a multi-dimensional effect, finished with a curved sapphire crystal and with water resistance to 50M. …

37. Ep. 154: Guilty Pleasure Watches

    14 oktober 2020 · 58 min

    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, the team sits down to talk about watches that fall squarely into the “Guilty Pleasure” category. Not every watch that we love is a consensus favorite – sometimes, the heart wants what the heart wants, even if nobody else does. Those are the watches we’ll be talking about today, those timepieces that, for whatever reason, fall outside of the mainstream, or are just less accepted by fans and enthusiasts. In other words, watches we shouldn’t like, but against our better judgment, we just can’t stay away. Lees meer

    This, of course, is all in good fun – nobody should feel guilty for loving any watch, but this topic provides an opportunity to shine a light on some watches and brands that may not otherwise get a ton of attention. This conversation covers watches at all price points, from a few hundred dollars, all the way up to “If you have to ask…”, and there are a lot of surprising takes that you might not expect.

    We’d love to know about your favorite guilty pleasures in the watch world, so be sure to leave those picks in the comments, or tag us on Instagram.

    The Alpina Seastrong Diver Gyre Automatic is a stylish 300-meter dive watch, but what really sets it apart is its innovative case construction designed to reduce waste without sacrificing performance. The Gyre’s case has been manufactured from 70% plastic debris collected from fishing nets in the Indian Ocean. The remaining 30% of the case is made of fiberglass, adding rigidity and making it just as suitable for diving as a watch made from traditional materials.

    Each of the collectors Associate Editor Zach Kazan spoke with has their distinct taste reflected in the watches they choose to collect. For Erik Strickland, it’s a focus on watchmaking history seen mostly through the lens of a particular brand. For Rob, it’s a pursuit of a classic aesthetic. For James and Christoph, it’s all about discovering hidden horological gems through the ownership of interesting vintage watches, particularly divers. What ties these collectors together is a laser-like focus on the watches that interest them, and a dismissal of the herd mentality.
