Another episode of the Independent Thinking Show for @FifthWrist Radio. 

This episode is all about taking you into the world of independent watchmaking and appreciation.

As host, Roman (@TimesRomanAU) sits down for a conversation with Niels Pedersen (@nielsmpe), a great guy and watch collector based in Denmark, who shares his journey from mainstream watchmakers towards more innovative indie brands.

Niels has a wonderful collection of watches, and is a fantastic photographer as well - so definitely check out his Instagram account.

Along the way, we chat about Niels’ collecting philosophy; the importance of patronage in supporting up-and-coming watchmakers; and the importance of investing passion into classical watchmaking. 

We also delve into the watch collecting scene in Denmark, as well as the broader trends in the worldwide independent watch market. 

It’s a really fun conversation ! Hope you enjoy it too.
