The HourTime Show

Welcome back to another week of The HourTime Show! This week your pals John (wrist check: Bell & Ross BR 01-93 GMT), Victor (wrist check: Coke Bezel GMT Master), and Nicholas (wrist check: Fossil Starmaster Reissue) discuss all manner of important things including tweaking your collection after losing a bunch of weight (congrats to John by the way--I'm sure he reads this haha) and the differences between Star Wars and Star Trek. Why Star Wars? Well, Citizen's new Star Wars Rebel Pilot is actually pretty cool, which led to an extended discussion of the two universes and Citizen in general. We're big fans of Citizen, it turns out! There's also an extended discussion of Christopher Ward, brought about by its new C63 Sealander. We're sorta lukewarm on this one it seems. We also spitball some ideas on what an HourTime Show Patreon would look like: Exclusive episodes? A Discord where we can all hang out? We're open to any and all ideas, so feel free to send them our way via email at [email protected]. In any event, thank you for listening and thank you again to Andrew Haworth for producing this week's episode. Don't forget to keep it locked to wristwatchreview.com and @wristwatchreview on Instagram for more fun watch content. Have a great week!

Welcome back to The HourTime Show! Well, against all odds, your pals John, Victor, and Nicholas managed to talk about the proposed European Super League while making it relevant to watches. TLDR: a bunch of big soccer teams in Europe wanted to start a brand new league, a lot of people got very angry, and now the league is kaput. One watch brand called Tribus got so upset that it pulled out of its sponsorship of Liverpool FC. Listen as we react live on the air to the brand's collection of watches. (They're... fine.) In other news, Victor is wearing an NTH BSHT, John is wearing a Bell & Ross BR V2-94, and Nicholas, erm, is wearing his Seiko Alpinist despite not knowing how to use the compass bezel (though he's looking forward to getting this JDM Prospex in a few weeks). Meanwhile, Victor wants the Seiko Star Bar and has found this really weird Royal Oak/Nautilus hybrid on Instagram. As John would say, the world is a mess. Once again, thank you for listening and thank you to Andrew Haworth for producing this week's episode. Be sure to visit wristwatchreview.com and @wristwatchreview on IG for more fun watch content. Have a great week! 

Extra, extra: John is actually on the podcast this week! Yes, John graces Victor and Nicholas with his presence to expand on our ongoing Watches and Wonders coverage. This week we discuss the Audemars Piguet x Black Panther (worn over the weekend by LeBron James) and the strategy behind these sorts of licensed pieces (don't forget that Citizen also makes Marvel watches), the new 36mm Rolex Explorer, Explorer II, and Datejust, the very fancy sport of spelunking, Tudor's taupe Black Bay 58, 18K gold with green dial Black Bay 58, and John gives us a hottttt take on two register chronos like the new Tudor Black Bay Chrono. We also spend a few minutes discussing the new Tag Heur Aquaracers (we especially like the limited edition 844) and try to figure out Tag's pricing strategy. That's a lot of watches! Thank you again to Andrew Haworth for producing this week's episode. As always, thank you for listening, and be sure to keep it locked to wristwatchreview.com and @wristwatchreview on IG for more fun watch content. And don't forget to hit up John on Twitter @johnbiggs to talk him into, or out of, buying a Tudor Prince Date. Have a great week!

With Watches and Wonders firmly in the rearview window, Victor and Nicholas (John couldn't make it) have probably too much to get into this week. Among the topics we discuss: the new Explorer, Explorer II, and taupe Black Bay 58. Taupe! We also discuss springtime watches including Nicholas's white dial Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical, the So Labs Layer 1, Oris's new pastel-colored Divers 65s, and whether or not Victor should go ahead and buy this Maen chrono he's been eyeing. Achievement unlocked: 30 minutes of nonstop watch talk. As always, we thank you for listening and hope you visit wristwatchreview.com and @wristwatchreview on Instagram for more fun watch content. And thank you again to Andrew Hayworth for producing this week's episode. Have a great week!

Here we go! Victor and Nicholas are here this week (John was busy again with "real" work stuff unfortunately) discussing a whole host of topics including a new Wear OS-based Casio G-Shock and what's the "right" Apple Watch to buy if you're mostly interested in everyday fitness stuff (spoiler: skip the Series 6 and get the Apple Watch SE for $279), the tyranny of April Fools "jokes," the legal situation surrounding octagonal bezels and Submariner-style dials, possible upcoming releases from Rolex and Tudor, Nicholas's love of both patina AND fauxtina, and Bell & Ross's recently announced (and very snazzy in our opinion) GMT. Once again, thank you for listening, and be sure to keep it locked to wristwatchreview.com and @wristwatchreview on Instagram for more fun watch content. Special thanks to Andrew Hayworth for producing this week's episode. Have a great week!

Hello, watch fans! First, allow us to apologize for not publishing an episode last week. Life, as they say, got in the way. But no matter: this week, John, Victor, and Nicholas are here to talk two big topics and a few smaller topics including theorizing a potential "extreme sports" version of the Apple Watch and Victor's recent deep dive into Frederique Constant's new Monolithic escapement. As always, thank you for listening, and once again thank you to Andrew Hayworth for producing this week's episode. Until next week, keep it locked to wristwatchreview.com and @wristwatchreview on Instagram for more fun watch content! 

This week we open the show with the biggest news of the week: J Lo and A Rod calling it quits. Well, that's how it was reported at the time the show was recorded, though now there is some ~confusion~ as to what's actually happening. Que sera sera. Victor, to his credit, did find a watch angle and pointed us in the direction of J. Lo's watches, which are perfectly acceptable fashion watches. In non-celebrity power couple news we also dive into whether or not a Rolex cares why customers want their watches, Breitling's new subscription-based service, and another controversial watch trademark story. Good stuff. This week's episode was graciously produced by longtime WristWatchReview.com fan Andrew Haworth, so if it sounds better than you're used to he's the reason! As always, thank you for listening and keep it locked to WristWatchReview.com and WristWatchReview on Instagram for more fun watch content. Have a great week!

We got a wild one here, folks. Your pals John, Victor, and Nicholas are back discussing a range of topics including proving watch provenance using the blockchain, how to think about NFTs and art, what watch companies can learn from the sneaker industry, and whether or not Citizen has any business selling a $6000 watch. Are watches tools or jewelry? We have thoughts. Feel free to reach out via email at [email protected] or hit us up via Instagram at @wristwatchreview. As always, thank you for listening, and keep it locked to wristwatchreview.com for more fun watch content.

Get excited! Your pals John, Victor, and Nicholas are back with energy to spare this week as they delve into the latest watch news, including Hamilton's decision to add a bracelet to the Khaki Field Mechanical, a slew of new Seikos (as well as John's skepticism toward Grand Seiko), and whether or not watch reviewers forget about everyday consumers when evaluating watches. Good stuff. Please be sure to visit WristWatchReview.com and follow our Instagram (@wristwatchreview) for more fun watch content. Thank you for listening!

The three amigos of The HourTime Show are back! This week, the gang goes in-depth on some watch industry inside baseball discussing Hodinkee's acquisition of used watch retailer Crown & Caliber and what this says about watch journalism here in 2021. Rise and grind. We also talk at length about Rolex wanting to wrest control of the "milsub" trademark from an independent watch brand in Florida. Why would Rolex want such a thing? Victor has thoughts. As always, thanks for listening and be sure to check out wristwatchreview.com and @wristwatchreview on Instagram for more fun watch content. Thank you!
