In this episode, we are joined by none other than Serge, aka @thewristplorer. Serge is a master of contextualizing watches by examining period photos of historical events and people where watches are prominently worn by the photo subjects. His feed features images depicting conflict history, political figures, the space race, Formula 1, classic action films, and more. Serge's content tends to be quite Seiko-heavy, and we are definitely okay with that! His wrist check was pretty epic, actually. We talk about his feed, but the REAL subject of this chat is Serge's unbridled curiosity. That curiosity is the foundation of his amazing feed. Give this one a listen!

It's been a minute, right?? Matt and Gregg are finally back on the same episode, ready to discuss the new world-beating GMT from Nodus x Raven, the WSJ piece on The Dink, and a certain long anticipated GMT from Tudor. Thanks for listening!

Ep.91- Tudor BB58 GMT NWA, Nodus TrailTrekker, and Catch-Up Chat

Gregg sits down with Lōcī Watch Company’s Trip Henderson over tacos and beers to discuss the new brand and the release of the Pacific Coast Highway line. Trip’s background in military service and disaster relief, as well his desire to give back, drive the social responsibility that is baked into the brand’s DNA. That’s important stuff, but what about the watches? Trip shares the inspiration behind the lineup, what it’s like to design a brand from the ground up and the show stopping dials. As Philly natives would do, there’s some banter about the hometown too. Hope you enjoy.

Ep.90- Gregg "Drinks Local" with Trip from Loci Watches

Gregg is back! Matt is buzzed! Lessss gooooo!! In this episode we have a catch-up chinwag over the past week of Watches and Wonders. Beer flows and thoughts are shared on the topic of the latest watches from Zenith, Tudor, Rolex and Bremont. Talking of which... well, Matt is a well-known fan of the British brand, and he has thoughts. Check it out and as always, thanks for listening.

Ep.89- Buzzed W&W Impressions on Rolex, Tudor, Zenith et al, Plus Bremont's Re-Boot

Mick Jagger, Liam Gallagher, David Lee Roth, Jeremy Clarkson, and... Mike Pearson? In this episode we are joined by Mike Pearson, the guy who is poised to take British watch brand Christopher Ward to the next level in North America. Mike has been an absolute legend in the enthusiast community for ages, having worked to establish or reinvigorate several big brands in the USA. Mike has been a friend for over a decade, and it's an absolute treat to finally have him on the pod to chat about Land Rovers, football, relaxation, and watches. Thanks for listening!

Ep.88- Christopher Ward's Mike Pearson- The Watch World's Greatest Front Man

Nick from DC Vintage joins Matt for double duty as guest and cohost. Nick has been on with us before, and it's interesting to reflect on the changes in the vintage Seiko landscape over the past 2 years; the Pogue is still cool, but the latest hotness is definitely the MACV/SOG aesthetic of the Vietnam-era field watches worn by the recon teams of the Studies and Observation Group. Nick also gives us the 411 on his own line of military inspired watches- the Sycamore "Wolf" and "Hunter". As always, this conversation wanders a bit... in a good way. CHeck it out!
