The Worn & Wound Podcast

The summer slowdown is kicking in. New releases are down to a trickle, and pretty soon, Europe will just close for vacation, leaving us American media up to our own devices until they return at the end of August for Geneva Watch Days. This week we have one update to a much-loved line by Baltic, a new complication from Ochs Und Junior that is either really confusing or just not well explained, and then a new, smaller version of one of Vero’s most popular watches. Next time, we’ll be recording in Windup Watch Fair Chicago, which should promise some new and fun things.This week’s episode is brought to you by Windup Watch Fair Chicago, which is preparing to kick off on July 12th. Eindup Chicago is heading into its third year and will feature over 40 brands, including Christopher Ward, Citizen, Fortis, G-SHOCK, Oris, and many more. Located at Venue West in West Town, it’s sure to be another exciting year. Learn more at Windupwatchfair.com

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, it’s time once again for our monthly(ish) Q&A episode, and this time Zach Kazan is joined by Zach Weiss for a series of great questions from our Worn & Wound+ Slack community and Instagram followers. In this episode we have questions about the “most improved” brands in the space, how we maintain enthusiasm for watches, and our preferred straps for summer. There’s also a highly controversial question here that asks us to choose between tacos and hamburgers, and regret ensues immediately after it’s answered.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

For the 18th straight year, Lewis Hamilton reached the podium of a race, showing continued progression in the development of Mercedes’ car. Lando Norris seems like he will be a thorn in Max Verstappen’s side for the foreseeable future. And Ferrari just seems off since Monte Carlo. We also looked forward to the Austrian GP, in hopes the competitive storyline between teams continues.We also managed to sneak in a top 5 conversation, with each of us picking our five best drivers and five best teams right now in F1. I’d like to tell you this was an easy one but compelling arguments were made on both sides. No one was hurt if simply for the fact we were 2500 miles apart.Tune in and listen to this episode for our thoughts on the racing and racers this year.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Michiel Holthinrichs, founder of the aptly named Holthinrichs Watches. Holthinrichs is a brand that we’ve admired at Worn & Wound for years for their sculpture-like, architectural designs that are quite unlike anything else in the watch industry. Michiel discusses his background, the origins of the brand, and what he’s trying to accomplish in the watch world. There’s also a lot of talk about the brand’s newest release, the Signature Collection, which represents a fairly dramatic shift in strategy for Holthinrichs. Michiel talks about why they’ve launched the Signature Collection now, the challenges they’ve navigated as a brand, and why he’s excited about the future.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

On episode 83 of A Week in Watches, we take a look at three new relatively affordable releases. First is a new powerhouse of a chronograph from Farer with unique functionality. Next is a new addition to Seiko’s Craftsmanship line, featuring a dial of beautiful Arita porcelain. Last, the Omega x Swatch MoonSwatch returns again with some vibrant colors. This week’s episode is brought to you by Windup Watch Fair Chicago, which is preparing to kick off on July 12th.

On this episode of the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re happy to be joined by Joe Kirk from Grand Seiko. Joe has been on the podcast a few times, most recently in 2022, and he’s always a fantastic guest. In this episode, Kat Shoulders and Zach Weiss chat with Joe about the recent crop of releases from Grand Seiko at this year’s Watches & Wonders event, including watches powered by the new 9SA4 caliber, and the incredible color changing dial featured on the SBGC275. They also talk about a huge variety of other topics, including servicing your Grand Seiko, the story behind the new Kodo, and what makes the new Grand Seiko flagship boutique in New York City special. He also provides some insight into the release of the new Locomotive from Credor, one of the most unexpected and exciting new releases this year. This is an episode you won’t want to miss if you’re a Grand Seiko fan, new or old.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

And just like that, we’ve got a season.Yes, Max Verstappan won the Canadian GP, in a race where strategy and rain played a large role. However, that is not the important storyline this week. He was one of five drivers who could have. With Mercedes now joining the fray, we have 3 and a half teams (sorry Checo) that can legitimately fight for not just podiums, but for wins as well. In addition to this welcome change, we got quite a race from the rest of the field. Haas rolled the dice, Danny Ric and Ocon responded right, Ferrari was nowhere in sight, and drivers that got new contracts ran for their post race flights. Add all those things together and this was easily the best race of the year.Tune in and listen to this episode for more of our thoughts on the 2024 Canadian GP.

On the podcast this week, Kat Shoulders and James Helms are joined by Mark Frankel, founder of Long Island Watch. Mark is a longtime fixture in the watch industry and has been part of the Worn & Wound story from the beginning. Many of the early watches reviewed in the early days of the website were actually lent to us by Mark and Long Island Watch. Mark’s business has grown along with Worn & Wound, including a popular YouTube channel and his own brand, Islander, which of course is sold through Long Island Watch. This is a fun conversation that covers a wide range of topics including the difficulty of cracking the YouTube algorithm, keeping track of growing collections, and the history of Long Island Watch.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

In this bonus episode of the Worn & Wound, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders sit down with Andreas Bentele, Marketing Manager at Fortis Watches. If you’ve been to a Windup Watch Fair recently, you may have met Andreas in the Fortis booth, where he and his team are always finding innovative ways to introduce their watches to the public. This year their booth had a tranquil, boutique-like feel, and it was a great place to experience Fortis in person. In this conversation, Andreas chats with Zach and Kat about what makes Fortis special, spending a great deal of time focusing on the brand’s history and heritage when it comes to space exploration. Fortis watches go through some pretty serious testing to ensure they can stand up to just about anything, including a burgeoning space tourism industry! They also talk about the unique collecting culture among Fortis enthusiasts, and Andreas gives a hint as to what might be coming from Fortis later in the year.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan and Kyle Snarr reflect on their recent experience at Couture, the watch and jewelry trade show in fabulous Las Vegas. They talk about some trends that they saw emerge at the show, their experience in Vegas, and they give an all important update on the swag situation this year. Then, Zach talks to Rolf Studer, co-CEO at Oris, about the latest Hölstein Edition and the concept behind this year’s LE and the importance of Hölstein in the history of Oris.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

Time on Screen is back this week for a conversation with Worn & Wound contributor, pen enthusiast, and now novelist Brett Braley for a conversation centered around Sideways, one of the great recent comedies about a writer and the writing process. Zach and Brett dig into why this film has held up so well since its 2004 release, what it says about the writing process, and how the world of wine relates to watch collecting (perhaps unsurprisingly, there are plenty of parallels). They also talk about Brett’s journey in bringing his debut novel, Arthur, into the world, his own writing process, and the new writing projects he’s currently working on.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

After years of missed opportunities and straight up bad luck, Charles Leclerc can now finally call himself a Monaco GP winner. All in a race weekend where he looked like the dominant driver with the dominant car from the start. However, as great as this victory was, we take a look at all the things that made the Monaco GP an absolute snoozefest for most of the race.Thankfully, what the race lacked in overtakes, it more than supplied in rumors and spicy interviews. We have Alpine, who has a tumultuous driver pairing that may see Esteban Ocon at the least suspended, if not let go. Aston Martin, who seems to be on the hunt for a new team principal. And finally Mercedes, where one driver is sure he’ll never out qualify his teammate. And not for a lack of talent.Finally, we take a look back at the moments in F1 history that sealed our love for the sport. (The type of love where you sit through a race where there is no change in the top 10 on the grid.)Tune in and listen to this episode for that and more on the 2024 Monaco GP.

This week on the podcast, Zach and Kat sit down to answer your questions in our monthly Q&A. We got a ton of great questions, as we always do, from our Instagram followers and our Worn & Wound+ Slack community. Among the topics discussed: our favorite summer watches, the concept of a “backup” watch, and how we keep track of our growing collections. Kat and Zach also consider a question on whether they’d let a certain watch brand run the world.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on Time on Screen, we’re talking about Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk in an episode sponsored by our friends at William Wood Watches. In celebration of the release of their most ambitious watch to date, William Wood CEO Jonny Garrett joined Zach Kazan and Kyle Snarr on stage at the San Francisco Windup Watch Fair to talk about Nolan’s film and share the story of the Dunkirk Watch. The new limited edition watch was made in partnership with and in tribute to the Massey Shaw, a London Fire Brigade Fire Boat that played an important role in evacuating British forces from Dunkirk Beach in the early stages of World War II. The watch is filled with small and large tributes to the Massey Shaw. The dial is modeled after the telegraph found in the wheelhouse of the Massey Shaw used by the Captain on the bridge to order engineers in the engine room to power the vessel, for example. And each example of the Dunkirk Watch will have a small piece of the Massey Shaw’s engine fitted into the caseback, which depicts Operation Dynamo, the plan that led to the historic evacuation.In this episode, you’ll hear Zach, Jonny, and Kyle discuss what Dunkirk means to them, and why they feel it’s among Nolan’s best films. And Jonny goes into detail about the making of the Dunkirk Watch, including his experience onboard the actual Massey Shaw, which is currently being refurbished ahead of the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II. William Wood Watches have donated £10,000 GBP to the Massey Shaw Partnership Trust to help fund this effort, which will see the Massey Shaw cross the English Channel next year along with other “Little Ships” that were part of Operation Dynamo to commemorate the anniversary. You can find out more about the Dunkirk Watch and purchase one at the William Wood Watches website.

On this week’s podcast, Zach Kazan and Zach Weiss are putting a new spin on an old format. The “3 for $5k” column is a Worn & Wound staple (and the Reader Edition will be back very soon), but with inflation being what it is these days, we thought it was time to extend the upper limit of our budget for this thought experiment. So in this episode, Zach and Zach decide on their own personal three watch collection for $10,000. It’s interesting to see how their thought processes change (and stay the same) with more fake money to play with. Let us know how you’d spend a hypothetical $10,000 in the comments below.

“You cut him! You hurt him! You see? You see? He’s not a machine! He’s a man!”Another week of racing and how things have changed. Though Max Verstappen found himself in P1 this week, on the twist and turns of the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari, he had to work for the win. Previous Grand Prix winner, (feels great to say that) Lando Norris, sensed blood in the water as we were treated to a maximum push to the finish line. We think it’s safe to say McLaren is now officially giving Red Bull a run for its money.Beyond this amazing finish, many of the remaining teams found themselves cast into the roles of supporting characters this week. Mercedes is on an island by themselves as the 4th best team. Aston Martin found Stroll celebrating a P9 while his teammate struggled, which would have been chalked up to just a bad week if not for a Visa RB team that now seems game.Tune in and listen to this episode for more of our thoughts on the 2024 Emilia-Romagna GP.It was a fun episode to record and we even found time to fix the Monaco GP.

Back in the summer of 2021, we took a stab at recasting watches in well known movies (and offering some of our favorite watches from movies as well). Today, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders return to this format, with a little help from our Worn & Wound+ Slack community. First, they go over some of their favorite recent (and not so recent) examples of watches in movies (and TV!), and then they humbly suggest a few alternatives to well known watches in movies. And yes, the Hamilton Boulton in the most recent Indiana Jones film is addressed at some length, as are the watches of Jurassic Park.If you’re a watch enthusiast and a movie lover, you know that this is fertile ground for an additional episode or two, so let us know in the comments if there’s a movie you want us to recast and we’ll tackle that in a future episode.This episode is sponsored by Sternglas and their new Hamburg Chrono Mecha-Quartz. After continued requests from the community and two years of tinkering, there is now a Chronograph in the Hamburg line of watches, and there are 3 unique variations. Check out the new Sternglas Hamburg Chrono Mecha-Quartz right now.

The Miami GP weekend is just getting started. We cover all the sunny Sprint racing action with an in-person episode from the WindUp Fair in San Francisco with special guest (and major watch and motorsport enthusiast) Josh Shanks.Beyond just racing, some very interesting story lines are developing this season leading us to ask a few questions. Now that GOAT car designer Adrian Newey is officially leaving Red Bull, what’s the next chapter in his illustrious career? What does this mean for Red Bull? Rumors are swirling around Florida man Logan Sargeant; will the Miami GP be his last race in F1? Will 17 year old Kimi Antonelli replace him? Finally, we discuss our predictions for the main event in Miami.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Zach Weiss are joined by Ed Jelley to finally put a bow on Watches & Wonders 2024, discussing their favorite releases from the show and their overall impressions of this year’s slate of watches. Before the Watches & Wonders talk, however, there’s a big new release from one of our favorite brands to discuss. Christopher Ward dropped the new Twelve X last week, and it quickly became the hottest topic in the watch world. Zach Weiss had a chance to see the watch in person ahead of its release, and he gives us his first impressions and a rundown of why this watch is a pretty big deal for Christopher Ward as a brand, and what it might mean for the industry as a whole.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

Over the years, Garrick Watchmakers has become one of our favorite independent brands. Their distinct design language draws on the heritage of classic British watchmaking, and the watches themselves are almost entirely bespoke. Truly, each one is made to order, and clients have enormous latitude in picking out nearly every detail. Dave Brailsford is Garrick’s cofounder and joins Zach Weiss and Zach Kazan in this episode of the Worn & Wound podcast to discuss Garrick’s history, the unique challenges of running a brand where the client has such a large role in the decision making process, and painstaking production process that sees Garrick making a huge amount of each watch in-house.

Another week of racing and this time we find ourselves at the Chinese GP. Last time F1 graced this track, it was 2019 and many were complaining about Mercedes dominance. In 2024, Red Bull is the one with a stranglehold on the paddock and it showed in both the sprint and race with Max Verstappen taking the checkered flag in both events.Yet the storylines were still plentiful. We had Daniel Ricciardo who finally looked in form until Lance Stroll decided to live the line “Rubbing is racing”. Danny’s reaction had us wondering if an angry Ricciardo is what F1 really needs. There was also the wily old veteran in Fernando Alonso who had us glued to our seats in the closing laps of the race. We were even treated to spontaneously combusting grass. Tune in and listen to this episode for more of our thoughts and observations of the 2024 Chinese GP.

Grassland explores the failures of the criminal justice system by focusing on one family in suburban New Jersey, and the draconian cannabis laws impacting their lives and the lives of those in their community. The film is a family drama above all, with authentic and grounded performances from Quincy Isaiah as well as Mia Maestro, Ravi Cabot-Conyers, and Jeff Kober in starring roles. Grassland effectively communicates the ineffectiveness of drug laws in parts of this country, which disproportionately impact minorities and have long lasting ripple effects that play out over the course of years. The new Shinola 420 Grassland Runwell, available to order today from Shinola, was designed in partnership with Quincy Isaiah, and, like the film, was created to bring awareness to the racial disparity in marijuana arrests and promote reform of the criminal justice system. In this episode of Time on Screen, Zach, Quincy, and Philip discuss the design of the watch, how the project came to be, and why this is a meaningful endeavor for all involved. A portion of the proceeds of each watch—limited to 420 pieces—is pledged to support criminal justice reform policies.

The Empire Strikes Back!Had there been any doubt as to the dominance of Red Bull after the Australian GP, the team quickly laid waste to their skeptics. With a 1-2 finish, they re-established the chokehold they have on this season of racing. Yet even with this display of excellence, the Japan GP still gave us a plethora of storylines to dive into this week.We had different tire strategies across multiple teams, with some drivers quickly realizing such strategies left them high and dry. We saw clear winners like Yuki Tsunoda, who continues to prove that he is better than this version of Daniel Ricciardo. To Sergio Perez, who bounced back after a tough week to secure P2. But we also saw clear losers. From the aforementioned Mr. Ricciardo to a Lance Stroll who just can’t seem to find the pace in a pretty decent Aston Martin. Tune in and listen to this episode for more of our thoughts and observations of the Japan GP.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are joined by Xavier de Roquemaurel, the CEO of Czapek, one of our favorite independent brands. As you’ll hear in this interview, Xavier has an energy for watches that is unmatched, and he provides his candid opinions in this conversation on a range of topics that many watch industry CEOs will not broach publicly. Of course, there’s also plenty of talk about the brand’s latest release, just announced ahead of Watches & Wonders, and a peek behind the curtain at what goes into planning for such a huge event.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

Episode 77 of A Week in Watches is going to be slightly different. This episode has two hosts and no script! With the big event happening so soon (the next episode will be made from Watches & Wonders), we figured getting ready with a little Q and A would be fun. That said, two very different watches with prominent moon phase complications were also worth covering. Join Zach Kazan and Zach Weiss in the studio as they discuss the new releases and then answer some fantastic questions from the W&W+ Slack community.This week’s episode was brought to you by the Windup Watch Shop, which recently added the new Louis Erard x Alain Silberstein Tourbillon to the catalog. It is a gorgeous piece of haute horology that showcases Mr. Silberstein’s unique style. Head over to WindupWatchShop.com to check them out, as well as accessories, EDC, clocks, and more.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are once again turning to our Worn & Wound+ community to answer your questions. This week, they’re focused specifically on Watches & Wonders, which is less than two weeks away, which means that we are (hopefully) in the last stages of planning for the big show. Questions, as you’d expect, cover a variety of topics, from the food in Geneva, to the gear we’re bringing, and, of course, all of that swag that brands hand out at the show.This episode is sponsored by Sternglas and their new Lumatic watch. Answering the community’s call, it is the first Sternglas to have dual-tone Luminova. It is an automatic watch that pushes the Bauhaus design to its minimalist limits. It’s the first Sternglas with the Miyota 8315 movement and two different Luminova colors. This new model has a satin-finished light blue dial with glowing white 3D shaded numerals and orange glowing geometric indexes. The movement features a 60-hour power reserve, quick setting date, stop seconds and 21 jewels. The case is 38mm in diameter and 12mm thick and has a water resistance of 50 meters. The display case back exhibits the movement’s blued screws, striped finishing, and skeletonized rotor. Learn more about the Lumatic here.

It finally happened. For the first time in more than a year of racing, Max Verstappen had a DNF. Opening the door wide open for challengers on the rest of the grid. While also finally answering the question the higher ups at Red Bull have always wanted answered: can Checo pick up the pieces in situations like this and bring the car home with at least a podium?That question may have been answered two fold this week with Checo having a poor showing in what many consider the most dominant car on the grid. Adding salt to that wound was 2025 free agent Carlos Sainz showing us he has that dawg in him, bringing his Ferrari home for an amazing victory. Add a questionable move towards the end of the race and tons of storylines during it, and the race was quite an event. Tune in and listen to this episode for more of our thoughts on the Australian GP.

This week on the podcast, Zach and Kat are joined by Ed Jelley to chat about two of the biggest watch releases of the year so far: new divers from Seiko and a brand new white dialed Speedmaster Professional from Omega. These new watches generated a lot of buzz when they were unveiled within days of each other recently, and with Ed owning both a Speedy Pro and a prior version of the Seiko 62MAS influenced diver unveiled recently, we knew we had to get his take on both. Later, Zach, Kat, and Ed discuss their favorite watches under $1,000, inspired by a recent feature on the website. As Ed points out, this is a great time to have $1,000 to spend on a watch, with an unending variety of styles to choose from. The group talks through some of their favorites from Brew, Hamilton, Lorier, Doxa, and more.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on Time on Screen, Zach Kazan, Zach Weiss, and Blake Malin sit around a Sand Worm popcorn bucket and talk about the biggest movie of the year to this point: Dune Part Two. We don’t always cover new releases on Time on Screen, but with a movie this big we couldn’t not discuss it. Of course, it has a fairly notable watch tie-in, but the focus of this conversation is mostly our shared immensely positive reaction to our first viewings of the Dune sequel. Given that Part Two effectively solidifies Dune as a major science fiction franchise, we also thought it would be fun to talk about our favorite sci-fi/fantasy franchises of all time. Zach, Blake, and Zach offer their top three picks in a conversation that gets pretty nerdy pretty fast, but that’s kind of what you’d expect for such a sci-fi heavy discussion. Be sure to let us know in the comments what your own favorite sci-fi/fantasy franchises are, and if you agree with our picks.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

Welcome to episode 76 of A Week in Watches. As said in the last episode, much of the next episode, which is this episode, will be dedicated to the British Watchmaker’s Day. An event that took place on Saturday, March 9th, in London, the British Watchmaker’s Day hosted over 40 brands and 1,000 guests for a very successful first go. But before we go over that, we first have to look at a couple of new releases from Omega and Seiko.This episode is sponsored by William Wood and their newly released Fire Exit Watch. The watch features a Swiss-made Sellita SW220 day date movement, a green glow, and a day complication with seven illustrated days of the week featuring multiple fun references to the fire exit man icon. Click here to learn how William Wood expanded their firefighter-heritage brand with this creative and colorful watch.

This week, Zach welcomes Christopher Chew to the podcast. Christopher is a watch collector with a materials science background, and has experience in a variety of fields including aviation, apparel, and in the startup space, where he’s been involved in some truly cutting edge projects. Christopher has a really interesting perspective on watches and sees the materials they’re made of as a new frontier of innovation in the watch industry. In this conversation, Zach and Christopher run through some common misconceptions about the materials used in watchmaking, and discuss what might be on the horizon in the realm of watchmaking materials given where we’re at now.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

Can Redbull be matched, let alone be beaten?For the second Grand Prix of the year, F1 headed to the Jeddah Corniche Circuit, a track where drivers spend most of their time at full throttle, navigating fast corners and long straights. Two things the RB20 seems to enjoy quite nicely as we saw a Red Bull 1-2 once again at the end of this race weekend. With the team now on cruise control, we wonder if internal turmoil may be the only thing that stands in the way of continued greatness. Beyond Red Bull doing Red Bull things, P3-P20 offered enough to keep an F1 fan glued to the screen. From an appendicitis sidelining Carlos Sainz, to a rookie getting tested in the fires of Jeddah. We even had a couple of wily veterans playing keepaway with P10. Tune in and listen to this episode for more of what we learned from the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.

On this special Oscar preview episode of Time on Screen, Zach Kazan welcomes Kyle Snarr to the podcast to talk about all things Academy Awards, ahead of the movie industry’s big night on Sunday.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Zach Weiss for a discussion about all things pertaining to calendar watches, particularly perpetual calendars. Last week was Leap Day, a calendar event that is celebrated with great enthusiasm by watch lovers, who get really excited to see their perpetual calendars do their thing when the calendar changes from 2/29 to 3/1. Zach and Zach run through some of their favorite perpetuals in this conversation, and discuss what draws them to these watches in the first place.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

The first race of a very much anticipated 2024 season is in the books, only to see Max Verstappen continue his on track dominance. In this episode of Time on Track, Ricardo and Amarveer try to make sense of a poor showing from multiple top 5 teams at a Bahrain GP many would say was decided in the opening 5 laps. From Mercedes to Ferrari, each team saw its fair share of issues, shedding light on just where they stack up against the Bull’s.But what the race lacked in team vs. team competition, it made up for in teammate vs. teammate storylines. As his year long audition for a seat next year begins, is Carlos Sainz showing us he’s better than Charles Leclerc? Will Daniel Ricciardo and Yuki Tsunoda fight like this all season? Will Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly finally be friends now that they have a common enemy: the car? Tune in and listen to this episode to get our thoughts on the first Grand Prix of the 2024 season.

We’re back!After a winter break where many of us probably wished for a competitive 2024 season, the teams are all back with some new looking cars, new team names (RB???) and new storylines. We’ve also jumped on the newness bandwagon as we bring in a new co-host, Amarveer Brar. Hailing from sunny California, Amarveer brings his love for watches and Formula 1 to the table. Paired up with Ricardo Sime from last season, the duo look to bring a touch of Worn & Wound passion to this historical sport.Right off the bat, that’s exactly what they do, diving headfirst into preseason testing and some of their major takeaways from new cars finally hitting the track. Then, it’s a quick segue into Drive to Survive Season 6, from the interesting comments made by a 7-time Drivers World Champion, to how bad overconfidence looks when you start to fail. Tune in and listen to this first episode to get your first dose of Time on Track for the 2024 season.

This week the Worn & Wound podcast is all about Formex, and the recent limited edition Essence we released with them earlier in the month. We’re happy to be joined by Markus Wälchli and Raphael Granito from Formex for this conversation, and Worn & Wound cofounder (and designer of this particular watch) Zach Weiss is here too. This is a deep dive into the history of Formex and the unique challenges of creating this specific watch, plus we also hear from Zach Weiss about the sci-fi influenced campaign built around “The Watch from Another World.”This episode of the Worn & Wound podcast is brought to you by the Windup Watch Shop and the Formex x Worn & Wound Essence Sector 39 Chronometer Limited Edition – inspired by the worlds of sci-fi films and series, the Essence Sector 39 Chronometer envisions a watch from an alternate universe.

This week, Time on Screen is back with an interesting and too often forgotten Christopher Nolan movie. Insomnia was Nolan’s first big budget Hollywood production coming off the surprise hit of Memento, and while it’s a pretty standard thriller on the surface, there are glimpses of what’s to come for Nolan if you look for them. Zach Kazan welcomes Zach Weiss and Kat Shoulders to this episode, where they talk about how Insomnia holds up twenty years after its release, and then they pick their top three Christopher Nolan movies. There’s also an extended sidebar on the recently completed fourth season of True Detective, another crime drama set in Alaska, but with a very different vibe, and weather.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

Kat Shoulders, Zach Weiss, and Zach Kazan are all on the mic fielding questions from our Instagram followers and Worn & Wound+ Slack community.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan talks to Laurence Bodenmann, Head of Heritage at Zenith. Laurence has what might seem like a dream job for a watch lover, poring over the Zenith archives and diving deep into the brand’s history, looking for ways to preserve and communicate that long history to a modern audience. Laurence is a trained anthropologist (and teacher) and takes an appropriately academic approach to her job at Zenith, and has a perspective like few others we’ve talked to on the podcast. In this episode, Laurence explains exactly what a Head of Heritage at a historical Swiss watch brand does, how she wound up at Zenith, and tells a few stories about discoveries she’s made along the way that have surprised her.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.
