This week, we have a fascinating chat with Adrian Buchmann, a veteran watch designer who’s spent the last few years playing a key role in Christopher Ward’s design department.

Before that, we chat about Paulin’s first dive watch, why Roger Dubuis might be the next big thing and Taylor Swift’s Cartier Panthère.

When it comes to Zach's in watch media, you could say we've saved the best till last. Zach Weiss is one of the co-founders of Worn & Wound, a watch news site that has been championing accessible watch enthusiasm since 2011. Andy chats to Zach about how the term 'microbrand' continues to be challenging to define, how much media has evolved over the years, and how Worn & Wound is staying true to its roots while adding more to its offering. Before that, Felix and Andy ask at what point a value proposition ceases to be a good value as prices continue to rise. Plus, watches in Happy Gilmore and more Jay-Z Franck drama.

This week - Franck Muller CEO Nicholas Rudaz.

Andy and Felix recently hopped on a plane to check out Franck Muller’s brand new Sydney boutique on Castlereagh Street, and found it just as full of curvy, colourful watches as you’d expect. While there, they sat down with CEO Nicholas Rudaz, who explained why Franck Muller has always been bold, just what those rabbits are doing and why he’s sure brand founder Franck Muller had nothing to do with Jay-Z’s customised Rolex perpetual calendar. 

This week’s episode has been sponsored by Kennedy. Find out more about the new boutique and Franck Muller’s watches here.

This week we’ve got something a bit different for you — a conversation with Parmigiani Fleurier, specifically Luca Castellani, Chief Commercial Officer and Theodore Panos, the brand’s Managing Director for South East Asia and Australia.

A little while ago, we hosted an event with the brand at Kennedy’s Chadstone boutique, showcasing their latest (and greatest) watches, and Felix had a chat with Luca and Theodore to highlight what makes the brand special, including a remarkable amount of expertise for a younger brand, and a surprising royal connection. 

Discover more about Parmigiani Fleurier at Kennedy, who have sponsored this episode.

Unlike the vast majority of people working in the “watch media’ today’s guest, Zach Piña lives the daring life of adventure that you see in glossy watch advertisements.

This is because Zach is one of the people responsible for creating these advertisements. We talk to Zach about diving under waves, racing classic cars in the desert and taking to the skies in pursuit of the perfect shot.

We also chatted about his history in watches, why the Golden Eye pause menu was a core memory, and which industry figure would make a great Bond villain. 

Before that, we talk about why the Baume & Mercier Clifton is one of the best watches of 2025 and some stylish new updates to the integrated Riviera. 

This week’s episode has been sponsored by Baume & Mercier, check out their 2025 collection here.
