• Christopher Ward’s Design Director explains The Twelve 660

  This week, we have a fascinating chat with Adrian Buchmann, a veteran watch designer who’s spent the last few years playing a key role in Christopher Ward’s design department. We chat with Buchmann about how the famously accessible brand’s design is evolving, why the Bel Canto and Loco mark a pivotal change, and what the challenges were in creating the new, super-slim The Twelve 660. Before that, we chat about Paulin’s first dive watch, why Roger Dubuis might be the next big thing and Taylor Swift’s Cartier Panthère. Fun fact, we recorded this before her engagement became public — so … maybe we made it happen?

• Zach Weiss, co-founder of Worn & Wound, on microbrands, media and more

  When it comes to Zach's in watch media, you could say we've saved the best till last. Zach Weiss is one of the co-founders of Worn & Wound, a watch news site that has been championing accessible watch enthusiasm since 2011. Andy chats to Zach about how the term 'microbrand' continues to be challenging to define, how much media has evolved over the years, and how Worn & Wound is staying true to its roots while adding more to its offering. Before that, Felix and Andy ask at what point a value proposition ceases to be a good value as prices continue to rise. Plus, watches in Happy Gilmore and more Jay-Z Franck drama.  Tony Traina updates us on Jay-Z's "Franck Muller" (13:00) Interview with Zach Weiss from Worn & Wound  (19:50) Farr & Swit Retro Digital (36:00) Discommon's technical totes (56:00) Show Notes: https://www.otpodcast.com.au/show-notes OT: Discord - https://discord.com/invite/X3Vvc9z7aV How to follow us: https://www.instagram.com/ot.podcast https://www.facebook.com/otpodcastau https://instagram.com/andygreenlive https://instagram.com/fkscholz   Send us an email: [email protected] If you liked our podcast - please remember to like/share and subscribe.

• Speaking to Franck Muller’s CEO Nicholas Rudaz, in the new Sydney Boutique

  This week - Franck Muller CEO Nicholas Rudaz. Andy and Felix recently hopped on a plane to check out Franck Muller’s brand new Sydney boutique on Castlereagh Street, and found it just as full of curvy, colourful watches as you’d expect. While there, they sat down with CEO Nicholas Rudaz, who explained why Franck Muller has always been bold, just what those rabbits are doing and why he’s sure brand founder Franck Muller had nothing to do with Jay-Z’s customised Rolex perpetual calendar.  This week’s episode has been sponsored by Kennedy. Find out more about the new boutique and Franck Muller’s watches here. Did Franck Muller modify Jay-Z’s Rolex?

• In conversation with Parmigiani Fleurier in Australia

  This week we’ve got something a bit different for you — a conversation with Parmigiani Fleurier, specifically Luca Castellani, Chief Commercial Officer and Theodore Panos, the brand’s Managing Director for South East Asia and Australia. A little while ago, we hosted an event with the brand at Kennedy’s Chadstone boutique, showcasing their latest (and greatest) watches, and Felix had a chat with Luca and Theodore to highlight what makes the brand special, including a remarkable amount of expertise for a younger brand, and a surprising royal connection.  Discover more about Parmigiani Fleurier at Kennedy, who have sponsored this episode.  Show Notes: https://www.otpodcast.com.au/show-notes OT: Discord - https://discord.com/invite/X3Vvc9z7aV How to follow us: https://www.instagram.com/ot.podcast https://www.facebook.com/otpodcastau https://instagram.com/andygreenlive https://instagram.com/fkscholz Send us an email: [email protected] If you liked our podcast, please remember to like/share and subscribe.

• Worn & Wound’s Zach Kazan on American-made watches

  This week, we continue our Zach-attack with Zach Kazan, the Managing Editor of Worn & Wound. We talk to Zach about some of the watches that have been getting his attention this year, and why American-made watches seem to be on the up. We also dive into Zach’s other love — cinema — and finally answer the eternal question ‘Nic Cage, good or bad?’ as well as his Letterboxd top four on-screen watch moments. Before that, Andy recounts his time at Goodwood.  This week’s episode is sponsored by IWC.
