Kaz survived Irma’s rage and chooses to indulge in his emergency stockpile of red wine and gourmet peanuts. Oh, and he totally won’t regret this by the end of the episode - not at all. Also, the guys tease the upcoming giveaway a little more and ask listeners to choose some of their favorite and most memorable TBWS moments over the past year.
Huge shoutout to Andrew @ watchhunter.org for his review of the Two Broke Watch Snobs podcast, you’re awesome! Plus, the Seiko boutique survives Hurricane Irma and Mike reflects on the beauty behind the Rolex 5517’s design...again.
Then the guys tackle the topic of accuracy, what it means to them, and what they look for in terms of accuracy when purchasing a watch. And, they discuss the new Zenith Defy Lab watch, an interesting development in the world of mechanical wristwatch accuracy.
