What Watch Brands Get Right (And Wrong) About Proportions
This week, I'm joined by Danny Milton and Malaika Crawford, and we're talking proportions: What watch brands get right, what they get wrong, and what we want to see more of. We start with Malaika's recent article, "The Plea For Proportionality," but quickly jump into recent releases from Vacheron Constantin, Tudor, and a whole lot more. While some of these smaller and mid-sized releases have garnered headlines, at large, average watch sizes haven't gotten much smaller, though options have certainly increased. Nowadays, tastes are broader than ever before, and that's creating a new demand on brands to recognize that goods things can come in small, medium, and large packages. We finish with a wish list of well-proportioned watches we'd like to see from brands.
