A Conversation with Jason Hutton at the Vancouver Timepiece Show

We’re back with Season 5 of the Analog Explorer Podcast, and we’re kicking things off with the first special episode recorded live at the inaugural Vancouver Timepiece Show, held April 25–27, 2025, at the historic Pipe Shop Venue in North Vancouver, British Columbia.

On the podcast, I sat down with Jason Hutton, the producer behind both the Vancouver and Toronto Timepiece Shows, and the founder of ZENEA Watches. We chatted just outside the venue on a surprisingly perfect, and yet rare, PNW sunny spring afternoon, talking about the motivation behind bringing a watch show to Vancouver, what goes into organizing something like this, and the unique energy that independent and microbrand communities bring to the scene.
