The Worn & Wound Podcast

This week on the podcast, we welcome Taylor Mason to the Worn & Wound team. Taylor is Worn & Wound’s new Media Director, and we thought it would be a good idea to get him in front of the mic to introduce him to our podcast audience. Taylor is a talented filmmaker whose work will probably be familiar to many podcast listeners (he’s produced a number of videos with Worn & Wound, all of which we discuss in the episode). This conversation is all about getting to know Taylor: the watches he’s interested in, his approach to watch content, and more

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Zach Weiss sit down to talk about a string of new releases from brands both large and small. New watches from Rolex and Hublot (with Jeff Koons) were the big headline grabbers in September, but there were also interesting new watches from Grand Seiko, H. Moser (their most affordable watch ever, and it’s digital) as well as a deep cut Swedish indie. 

Let us know in the comments what caught your eye in September, and what you thought of the marquee releases discussed in this episode.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are interrogating some watch industry conventional wisdom. There’s a lot of it out there. From the idea that it’s the “story” that matters most in a watch, to the principle of “buying what you love,” and even the idea that everyone needs a certain type of watch in their collection. This is a fun conversation and Zach and Kat definitely poke some holes in some watch industry ideas that perhaps don’t stand up completely to close scrutiny. Let us know in the comments if we’re on the right track! 

And stay tuned until the end of the pod for some great cultural recs from Zach and Kat, including a produce recommendation from Kat (a first on the podcast) and one of Zach’s most watched trailers ever for a movie that looks absolutely insane.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Cait Bazemore are holding themselves accountable and talking about the watches they were wrong about. After years of collecting and working in the watch industry, Zach and Cait have both realized there have been times when they were just plain wrong about a watch, or a preconceived notion about watches in general. In the spirit of reflection, this conversation focuses on watches we misjudged – things we liked and now don’t, or vice-versa. There’s also some discussion here about principles we’ve held that we’ve come around on in one way or another. It’s a fun conversation, and of course we welcome your input: what have you been wrong about in your time in this hobby? Let us know in the comments!

Show Notes 

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan welcomes Zach Weiss to the podcast for an old-fashioned discussion on the nature of collecting. Specifically, they’re talking about how their taste has evolved over the course of years. They drill down on how working in the industry, being exposed to a huge variety of watches, and the simple nature of time have changed their thoughts on what’s appealing, and what’s not. They also get pretty granular on specific watches from their collections’ past that represent a different era of their collecting journey, and reflect on why they’ve moved on, and what proved to be the catalyst for their moves.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Zach Weiss and Ed Jelley to talk about some of the watches they’ve each had in for review over these last few months. The summer is traditionally a slow time for the watch industry, so we took the opportunity to get as many review samples in the office as possible, and there have been a bunch of standouts. The conversation kicks off with a recap of Zach W’s review of the Otsuka Lotec No. 8, which Zach K. has been wearing a lot as well. And then Ed discusses his experience with the DWC Terra, an ultra-affordable field watch from India that has been having a bit of a viral moment as Ed prepares his review. Zach K. talks about a Moser that is (perhaps) a symbol of a changing brand, and Zach W. gets into details on a Sinn that feels like the opposite, a return to the brand’s roots. 

Let us know in the comments if there are any new (or old!) watches you’d like to see us give the full hands-on review treatment.
