Love 'N Watches

In this episode Pertual Girl and Ranch Racer dive into the hole that is the buying and selling of watches. What are some good reasons to sell a watch? WHERE do you sell a watch? And when you're ready to buy, what are your options?

They also discuss an industry that's very similar to the watch collecting world. Wine and wine tasting has become a huge industry in this country, with its heart, Napa Valley, being in their backyard here in Northern California. LOTS of similarities to discuss!

In this week's episode Ranch Racer and Perpetual Girl discuss their thoughts on the often used term "beater watch". What makes a watch a beater? Is it the same criteria for everyone? NOT!

They also chat about their thoughts on nasty beat-up straps on really nice watches. Ok or not ok? Well, it's neither since it's just personal opinion right? :-)

Finally they go into traveling with your watches and discuss the topic of homages. Visit lovenwatches.com for links and photos for this show. Hope you enjoy!

In this episode Perpetual Girl and Ranch Racer go totally random. From watch winders to watches and jewelry to Rolex, pretty much any topic is fair game in this one.

Today Perpetual Girl is wearing her Technomarine UF6 quartz chronograph and Ranch Racer is trying out the Spinnaker Bradner which is in for review. Hope you all enjoy the show!

In this episode Ranch Racer and Perpetual Girl give a second glimpse into their personal collections. Mostly Seikos from PG, while RR goes completely off the range again with no rhyme or reason to his four pieces.

They also talk a bit about Swatch pulling out of Baselworld 2019, what it means to the industry and the media, and whether or not they really care one way or the other. They give some shout outs to a listener and his wife having their very first baby, in the hospital RR was born in no less, and they have a fun story about a very unique watch that recently made it into space. Oh, and don't forget to follow the show on IG at @lovenwatches. We're doing our first giveaway and it's super easy to enter!

In this week’s episode Perpetual Girl and Ranch Racer dive into some controversial topics. First they discuss the world of Invicta, why the brand frequently comes under fire from the watch community, and why that shouldn’t matter to you if you see an Invicta YOU like and want to own. They also touch a bit on brand ambassadors and why that tends to be a big turn off for them personally. Finally, they delve into the topic of why we all collect watches in the first place. Oh, and Ranch Racer meets a twenty-something who can’t tell time! Ugh. Hope you all enjoy the show!

This week’s show kicks off with a HUGE apology to our listeners who’ve been asking about episode 7. Our goal is always to release a new episode every other Tuesday night. Unfortunately due to a crazy work schedule for Ranch Racer, along with workers pounding around, hammering and nailing a new roof into place on the house, it just wasn’t in the cards this time around so we’re a few days late. Going forward we’ll try our best to get these episodes out on time every time.

Get out there and rate and review us folks! Take a couple of minutes to tell us what you think with a quick iTunes review. It’ll help grow the show and help us tailor future content for you. Remember, we’re not in this for the money! We’ve invested our own funds to bring you a show that we hope you’ll enjoy, simply out of our love for the hobby. Help us out by letting us know what you think.

On the wrist today Perpetual Girl is wearing her funky vintage Seiko she just picked up on eBay and Ranch Racer is sporting his Seiko Presage SRPB43 (a recent gift from PG) on a new blue leather strap.

Today’s topic is around educating our listeners on the basics of watch collecting. What information should you be armed with if you’re intent on entering this crazy hobby? What about more advanced topics? And how about all of that terminology the big blogs use that sounds more like a foreign language than anything having to do with a watch?

We’re here to help. We’ll cover all kinds of fun watch related stuff in this extended episode. We just hope you don’t get bored to death listening to Ranch Racer geek out on all things watches!

See https://www.lovenwatches.com/2018/07/05/episode-7-welcome-to-watch-class-101/ for photo gallery of topics discussed on today's show.

Ranch Racer and Perpetual Girl continue their discussion around COUTUREtime 2018. This time they're focused on the amazing time they had with Grand Seiko, especially given the opportunity to interview Yoshifusa Nakasawa-San, renowned watchmaker in the Seiko Micro Artist Studio.

On the wrist of both hosts today are some pieces in for review from Philip Stein. Aside from the promise of better health through positive frequencies, they're just cool looking pieces.

Hope you enjoy the show!

It’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt! Actually, nobody got hurt in our Vegas adventure to COUTUREtime 2018, and we met with some great brands. We also had some fun shopping on our “day off”, and might have bought a couple of new pieces that you’ll hear about in the wrist check.

During said wrist checks there may be some brand boutique bashing. Well, not bashing per se, but most definitely an important lesson to be learned. In this case the brand boutique lost out and the multi-brand Vegas retailer won.

In this first show covering COUTUREtime we discuss Philip Stein and Oris. Philip Stein we knew next to nothing about prior to the show, but learned some cool things and were actually pretty impressed with their offerings. Oris, on the other hand, we knew a TON about and were certainly not disappointed seeing their new offerings in the metal.

Hope you enjoy the show!
