Welcome to Season 10 of Keeping Time Podcast — and episode number 100!!!

Your hosts, Jeremy and Doug, are thrilled to welcome Praneeth Rajsingh, CEO of Horologer MING to the Keeping Time podcast. MING is the newest addition to the impressive lineup at Oster Jewelers, and if you haven't yet had the pleasure of experiencing one of these extraordinary timepieces in person, this episode will make it abundantly clear why this is such an interesting and unique brand.

Founded in Malaysia in 2017 by Ming Thein and Praneeth Rajsingh, MING has in a remarkably short time become one of the most talked-about names in independent watchmaking. With over 75 references across eight years, this is a brand operating at a level that commands serious attention. The conversation with Praneeth is candid, thoughtful, and genuinely fascinating — exactly the kind of deep dive our listeners have come to expect from Keeping Time.

We explore the creative discipline behind a brand that has already earned two GPHG awards — the Horological Revelation prize in 2019 and a second win for the Sports Watch prize with the 37.09 Bluefin — and shows no signs of slowing down. From the revolutionary Polymesh bracelet that is rewriting the rules of what watchmaking can achieve, to the brand's uncompromising approach to price integrity, to one of the most remarkable track records of innovation in recent independent watchmaking, Praneeth shares candid insight into what truly sets MING apart and where this extraordinary brand is headed next.

This is a conversation that will leave you wanting to experience MING on your wrist.
