This week, we catch up with Matt Smith Johnson, AKA Teenage Grandpa, and his work in watches and watch design, including brands like Vero, Laco, and others. Beyond the expected chat around dial text and case proportions, our chat with Matt goes in some less expected directions, specifically around metal band t-shirt design and which metal groups need a watch sponsorship deal, stat.  Before all that, Andy and Felix chat about Andy’s recent trip to the Cartier Manufacture in La Chaux-de-Fonds, the recent TAG Heuer X Kith Formula One reissue, and what other brands might be looking for a ‘Moonswatch Moment’ in the near future.  This episode of OT: The Podcast is in partnership with Cartier, find out more about their latest watches at cartier.com.au Love Cartier?

Pierre Rainero, Cartier’s Image, Style and Heritage Director on the magic of time
