'On Time' is back with another focus episode in which we discuss bronze watches. Also joining us again is certified master watchmaker Manuel Yazijian to offer his expert opinion and experience. What are the pros and cons to using bronze for a watch case? Why aren't there many (if any) vintage bronze watches? Shenanigans ensue when we discuss the good, the bad, the ugly, and the patina.

On this episode of ‘On Time’ we discuss “Watch Winders” with our guest and certified master watchmaker @ManuelWatchMaker. Are they needed, worthwhile, or completely useless? Let’s find out.

On Time is back in action and joining us this time is a rising star in the world of horology (as well as Hollywood), Mr. Aldis Hodge. He played MC Ren in “Straight Outta Compton”, Noah, on WGN America’s “Underground”, and is also the founder of Basil Timepieces. We discuss his views on designing, collecting, and being an entrepreneur in the horological world.

This month we welcome Carlo, one of the world’s premier Heuer collectors to the On Time round table. He is a fellow LA Watch Gang member, extreme collector, and a dear friend. We discuss his past collections and pearls of wisdom he’s learned over his short but legendary collecting career in vintage watches, including of course, Heuers.

We recently sat down with Nick English, Co-Founder of Bremont Chronometers at Feldmar Watch Company in Los Angeles. Nick shared what inspired him and his brother to start a watch company and the long and winding road they’ve had to navigate in bringing watchmaking back to British shores. Along with exploring the history of the Bremont, we also chat a little about what’s in store for the brand.

In this episode, we welcome a friend who also happens to be one of the most respected collectors we know. Mitch shares our passion for horology but his collection and stories are uniquely epic. His amazing stories include a meeting with George Daniels himself, to illustrating why having confidence in your eye, confidence in your mind, and confidence in your heart are key to being a true collector.

Mike and Chase are back as they welcome Serdar, aka @LAWatchGuy to the round table to discuss everything from the perfect wrist size to criteria they deem crucial to be considered an independent watchmaker. Talk of girth was kept to a minimum.
