In this episode of OverTime: The Podcast, we had the pleasure of hosting Susan from Galvin Watch Company. We kicked things off with our classic wrist checks. Susan introduced her latest model, the Suvi in Lupin (Purple). Praka also sported the Suvi in Barley, kindly on loan from Galvin Watch Company, while Justin wore the Orient Kamasu Burgundy (Gen 2) on loan from Praka!

Susan shared how she got started in the industry as a watchmaker in Finland, her time working for Omega and Tag Heuer, and how that journey led her to start her own microbrand, Galvin Watch Company. We delve into how she became a watchmaker and her advice for aspiring watchmakers! We also discuss their latest collection, the Suvi, and Susan's insights into creating the model. Listen to how Susan translated her skills and passions as a watchmaker into creating an Australian brand that fully assembles and tests watches right here in Australia!

'Something Interesting' Section:

Susan shared her plans to visit Melbourne and check out the Time & Tide shop, as well as a trip to Vietnam where she might do some vintage watch shopping! Justin shared the news that Dad Watch on Instagram has finally received his custom Bel Canto, showcased on his Instagram – check it out @dad.watch. Praka shared his newest strap, which fits him better than a regular Marine Nationale – the Paratrooper strap from CNS – check it out here.
