  • Ep. 60 - The Gregory Pau Patek Philippe Nautilus 'Olive Green' Dial, $35,000 to $490,000
    This past week, there was definitely one topic that was discussed at length (and with raised voices) by collectors which was the Olive Green dial Patek Philippe Nautilus ref. 5711 that was sold at Antiquorum for well over it’s retail price. This is a watch that was recently released and due to lack of inventory is very difficult to get. The watch retails for ~$35,000… it sold for just shy of half a million at auction. This event uncovered many things in the world of watches; the pricing bubble of the secondhand/grey market and inventory levels of very in demand watches - and so let’s talk about it!

  • Ep. 59 - The Mario Bros Tag Heuer Watch, Lange Handwerkskunst Tourbillon, and Tag Heuer Aquaracer
    Today we talk about three watches that have been on the top of our mind the last month or so. The Mario inspired Connected watch from Tag Heuer reminisces of the old days of Nintendo. The Lange which is certainly a feat from the brand, and the Aquaracer which should become a staple of the Tag Heuer lineup.

  • Ep. 58 - The Vacheron Constantin that will Steal your Heart
    Vacheron Constantin has been a big part of Life on the Wrist. The Toledo, or ‘Cioccolatone’ as it is nicknamed, was one of our favourite watches for a very long time. Today, we are looking at a Vacheron Constantin reference 4963 that has many design elements that are similar to the Toledo. It also is easily one of the best vintage dress watches we have had for our store.
    The watch can be found here.

  • Ep. 55 - The 'Jumbo' Tudor Prince Oysterdate from 1983
    Tudor has become a huge part of many watch collectors collections. The variety and interesting history of many of their references has created a profound opinion for most people for the brand. The Tudor Prince Oysterdate is a very popular reference as it mimics the design elements of the Rolex Datejust, but is more affordable. There are some references of the Oysterdate that are nicknamed ‘Jumbo’ because of the larger 38mm case size. Today we take a look at a reference 90814 from 1983 that is a great example of simplicity.
    The watch is available on our store here.

  • Ep. 54 - The Other Omega Chronograph, Omega Chronostop from 1968
    It can be said that the Omega Speedmaster often times crowds the mind of watch enthusiasts. Rightfully so, the Speedmaster is an incredible watch, with an interesting history and deserves the attention it gets. But there is another chronograph from Omega, the Chronostop, which has an equally interesting history. It also looks so darn cool. Today we discuss the Chronostop, its history and the reference 145.009 which is the watch we have with us during this Podcast.
    Our article about this Chronostop can be found here.
    The watch can be found on our store here.
