Welcome to the Scottish Watches Podcast episode 671! We’re coming to you live from our brand-new studio, joined not by pixels on a screen but by a real human guest in the flesh. Returning to the show is Martin Walport of Martins of Glasgow — a legend in the Scottish horology scene with decades of stories, expertise, and charm. It’s been a few years since his last appearance, and a lot has changed — both in his business and in the world of watches. From tales of rare Speedmasters to behind-the-scenes insights on running a thriving watch repair business.
