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.

Then, a brief chat about travel and Roger Dubuis, before we dive into the mailbag and come up with a beautiful bespoke strap from anOrdain, some good, honest fun from D1 Milano and the Timestop D-20, a dice-rolling watch made for the Dungeons & Dragons aficionados on the go.

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.

Christian Knoop is one of our favourite IWC people to speak to, and this week, we flashback to Geneva when Andy caught up with the talented Chief Design Officer to get the inside story on how the brand managed to sensitively add new sizes and complications — not to mention materials — to its popular Ingenieur while staying true to the values of the brand and the integrity of the watch. Before that, Felix and Andy pondered why the watches we forget about are sometimes the best and why the latest MB&F is so surprising.

Continuing our exploration of IWC’s 2025 collection this week, Felix chats to IWC Museum Curator David Seyffer, a walking encyclopaedia of IWC history, who gives us a lesson on some of the lesser-known Ingenieur models which provide a precedent for the new materials and complications added to the collection this year. He also offers some insight into how generational shifts lead to changing tastes among watch collectors and the brand’s legacy of purpose-built instruments. Before this, Andy and Felix chat about Crocs and G-Shock, among other things.
