The Worn & Wound Podcast

This week on the podcast, Zach welcomes Worn & Wound contributor Nathan Schultz. Nathan has been writing for Worn & Wound for nearly a year, and is the creator of the “Selling Points” series, where he brings his unique perspective on finding value (and sometimes not finding value) to the Worn & Wound community. Zach and Nathan talk about Nathan’s history in the hobby and what draws him specifically to affordably priced watches. They also talk about watch modding culture and how Nathan recently did some surgery on a Bulova Hack to fix a noisy rotor.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 new episode of Time on Screen, Zach welcomes Worn & Wound cofounder and CEO Blake Malin to the podcast for the very first time. Today’s movie is The Firm, the 1993 legal thriller starring Tom Cruise and featuring an incredible cast of great supporting actors. Why The Firm? Well, there are definitely some great watches in the movie, but this is all about Zach and Blake’s interest in 90s legal thrillers, which were a burgeoning genre at the time and have proven to be incredibly rewatchable decades later. In this episode, they break down what they like about The Firm specifically, but also get into why this period of time was “peak lawyer” in so many ways, chart their own thwarted legal careers, and why the two-tone Submariner is the most offensive 1990s 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.

New releases are coming fast and furious in the first month of 2024, and we’ve got updates on some big ones in this week’s edition of A Week in Watches. There’s a new Speedmaster from Omega (a January tradition) as well reissues of classics from Zenith and Longines. Plus, the hypothetical watches from the Seiko Power Design Project, featuring “incredibly specialized watches” that 99% of people don’t need. They don’t actually exist, but they’re a lot of fun.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan, Kat Shoulders, and Ricardo Sime jump on the mic to talk about some of their recent watch acquisitions, and what those pickups might mean (or not mean) for their collections in 2024. Ricardo finally added a GMT to his collection in late 2023 after a long search, Kat picked up a new limited edition Fears (one of her favorite brands), and Zach bought a James Lamb after his usual long period of deliberation. In this conversation, they each talk about what led them to each of their new watches, and how those watches fit into their collecting goals for the upcoming year.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 today’s episode of Changing Gears, Kat is joined by her good friends Lydia Winters and Vu Bui. Lydia and Vu are U.S. natives now living in Sweden, and along with being watch collectors, they are also both amazing photographers. We chat about their recent Tool/kit they did for Worn & Wound camping in the Swedish forest. We of course get into photography and discuss Lydia’s decision to change camera systems and why. We had a blast with both of them and be sure to check out their new daily podcast, This Watch Life! We hope you like this new podcast format and really appreciate all the listeners!

Today on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re once again joined by Dana Li, founder of Tell the Time, a watch platform focused on providing a female driven perspective on the watch world. In this episode, after a brief discussion on the influx of Lunar New Year watches and some other new releases from a busy first month of the year, Dana, Zach Kazan, and Zach Weiss play a game of Overrated/Underrated, each proposing a handful of topics and asking for the group’s hottest take: are these overrated or underrated? Discussion points include micro-adjustment on bracelet clasps, the various flavors of gold in watch cases, and vintage watches in general.This episode was sponsored by Citizen and their new Promaster Air Automatic GMT watch, a first for the Promaster line. The launch celebrates the 35th anniversary of Promaster, a line that embodies the spirit of adventure in the air, on land or at sea and lives up to the values of functionality, durability, and performance.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, and at long last features a movie by the Coen Brothers, a filmmaking team that has been incredibly important to both Zach Kazan and Kyle Snarr, Worn & Wound’s Head of Partnerships and the guest on this episode. They’re tackling No Country for Old Men, the Coen’s 2007 classic neo-western based on the much loved Cormac McCarthy novel, and the film that many recognize as their true breakthrough, finally winning them a Best Picture Oscar and near universal acclaim. Zach and Kyle talk through what makes the movie special and how it fits into the larger context of the Coen’s filmography, and they finish off the episode with their personal top five favorite Coen Brothers films. There’s some overlap between their lists, but it still captures the enormous breadth and variety in their films over the years.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 72 of A Week in Watches. This week’s episode is part two of A Year in Watches 2023. This week, we focus on independent brands like Nodus, Lorier, Farer, Baltic, a fully American-made watch, and more. Naturally, there was way too much to cover again, so these were just a few highlights. This week’s episode was brought to you by the Windup Watch Shop. The best way to start the new year is a new watch. Head over to WindupWatchShop.com to check out new watches, limited editions, accessories, EDC, clocks, and more.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are once again taking questions from the Worn & Wound+ Slack community. We seek out questions from listeners about once a month, and you came up with some great ones for January. Zach and Kat field questions on topics ranging from the relaunch of Universal Geneve, mid century watch design fatigue, and a growing interest in independent watchmaking. There’s also a great discussion on the place of homage watches, and a quick diversion into Zach and Kat’s home audio setups. If you’re not yet involved in the Worn & Wound+ Slack, click here to join today. It’s completely free to join, and there are great watch discussions happening there every single day.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, the Worn & Wound podcast is all about tool watches. We’ve got Zach Kazan, Kat Shoulders, Zach Weiss, and Ricardo Sime on mic to discuss the finer points of a category in watchmaking that is essentially inescapable. But what does it really mean to own and collect tool watches in 2024? We try to define what a tool watch is in the first place (we’ve found there’s no real consensus) and grapple with whether an interest in tool watches has more to do with practicality, aesthetics, or something else entirely. It’s a fun conversation that takes all kinds of unexpected turns.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 is joined by Kat Shoulders as they look back on the previous year in movies. In the great tradition of movie podcasts, this is our Best of 2023 episode. Kat and Zach agree that last year was a great year for movies, the best in quite some time, dominated by a massive summer box office led by Oppenheimer and Barbie (both of which have been covered on Time on Screen, incidentally). But there were many, many other films throughout the year that left their mark. In this episode, Zach and Kat each pick their top 3 and go into depth on why each meant something to them last year, plus there are a whole slew of honorable mentions discussed toward the end. They even give a few of their favorite TV achievements from the last year. Let us know in the comments what your favorites from 2023 were, and what you think of Kat and Zach’s lists.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 71 of A Week in Watches. To make it a tradition this is a special episode, or rather, part of one of a special two-parter cleverly titled “A Year in Watches.” Yes, we’re going to take a look back at big moments and releases from 2023. As you’d expect, there’s a lot to cover, so we’re doing the “big brands” in this episode – think Omega, Rolex, and Tudor – and micros and indies in the next.Naturally, there still was too much to cover, so we focused on big launches from Watches & Wonders, what Rolex was up to (they did some weird stuff in 2023, especially for them), and then Seiko, who had a particular focus this year.

This week on the first podcast of 2024, it’s our annual predictions episode, where we look ahead to the new year and make our best guesses about what’s to come. It’s part wishful thinking, and partly just hunches we’ve been harboring, but it’s always fun to play prognosticator and imagine what might transpire over the next twelve months. On this episode, Zach and Kat welcome an often requested guest: Norqain’s Katlen Schmidt! That’s right – that makes this episode a Tenn & Two reunion episode, which is just a fantastic way to start the year. Katlen shares some of her own predictions for 2024, including her thoughts on more color, movement innovations, and the limited edition trend.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 this week’s Worn & Wound podcast, final podcast of 2023, Zach Kazan chats with Chris Antzoulis, one of the website’s newest contributors, about some of his recent work. In addition to being a watch collector, Chris has a background in comics, which made him incredibly well suited to chat with comic book legend Adam Kubert recently about his new collaboration with Citizen and Marvel, which feels like a major crossover moment between two enthusiast worlds. Chris also developed the concept behind “Watches and What Else,” a series that examines the “other” interests of watch collectors, always looking for ways watch collecting connects to other pursuits. If you haven’t checked out “Watches and What Else” yet, we’ve linked the series to this point in the show notes below.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 second year in a row, we’ve got a special holiday themed edition of Time on Screen. Today, we have a gift for our listeners that you don’t have to worry about getting wet, exposing to bright lights, or feeding after midnight. That’s right, today we’re talking Gremlins, a movie set during Christmas, that hit theaters in the middle of summer, and on the same weekend as the weirdly similar Ghostbusters. Gremlins is a natural choice for Time on Screen – telling time is crucial in the film, after all. For this episode, Zach welcomes Ed Jelley back to the podcast to discuss their experiences revisiting a movie that has been a cult object since childhood for both of them. They ponder the question: is Gremlins actually any good? It turns out that sometimes the things that fascinate and entertain you as a child can do the opposite once you have some perspective in life. Who knew? It’s a fun conversation that digs into some of the lore around the movie, including its controversial tone and what can only be described as the all out mayhem and violence that unfurls in the film’s final act.

It’s here, the last episode of the year. A Week in Watches episode 70 – wow. Though the year is coming to a close, there still is some news – big news actually – to discuss, so it’s a pretty full episode. We kick it off with some upgrades fromGrand Seiko to one of their core designs. From there, we head to the UK to check out a couple of late-in-the-year releases from Farer. Then, it’s over to Switzerland to discuss Breitling’s acquisition of Universal Genève. Finally, we’re back to Japan for some new, and very cool, GMTs from Seiko 5.

This week, as the year draws to a close, the Worn & Wound team considers their favorite watch releases from the last twelve months. This is our Watch of the Year episode, where we find Zach Kazan, Zach Weiss, Kat Shoulders, and Ed Jelley picking the watches that stood out to them in a crowded year of new releases. Their picks run the gamut, from affordable micro-brand staples, to the impossibly high end haute horlogerie, and everything in between.Let us know in the comments what releases stood out to you, and stay tuned to these pages as we’ll be bringing you our full year end wrap up featuring contributions from our contributing writers next week.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 the Worn & Wound podcast, we return to a format that we first explored earlier this year, and provide some (mostly) non-watch recommendations to our listeners. Zach Weiss, Zach Kazan, Kat Shoulders, and Kyle Snarr are in the studio and are armed with lists of movies, shows, bags, books, and more that have caught their attention recently. We always have a lot of fun sharing the things we like outside of the watch space with our listeners, and we’d love to hear about the stuff you’ve been enjoying too, so be sure to leave a comment with your own recs below.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 this week’s episode of A Week in Watches, we have news from Furlan Marri, Arcanaut, Baltic, Oak & Oscar, and Seiko. Furlan Marri returns to its roots with a new chronograph, but this time with a high-end mechanical chronograph movement. Arcanaut debuts two new watches in the D’Arc Colors line, one featuring a very unexpected dial material. Baltic adds some gold to existing models, and they look killer. Oak & Oscar team up with a local Illinois whiskey brand for a very cool collab. And, finally, Seiko debuts some new, and very nice, mechanical chronographs.This episode was sponsored by Artem and their new HydroFlex watch strap. Crafted with a premium FKM rubber base and layered with their signature synthetic embossed material, “HydroFlex” is water-resistant, flexible, durable, and comfortable immediately out of the box, with no break-in period.

This week on Time on Screen, Zach is joined by Charith Karunaratne, a watch collector, movie lover, and friend of the show to talk about The Killer, the latest film from David Fincher. Zach and Charith are both huge Fincher fans, and have been circling a Fincher related podcast for a long time, so the debut of a new entry in his filmography seemed like a great excuse to finally get on the mic. Not only is this a deep dive into The Killer, but Charith and Zach take some time to talk about their love of Letterboxd, and then in the back half of the pod they rank their top five Fincher films. This is a great conversation about a movie and a filmmaker that are incredibly rewarding to talk about.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.

It’s Q&A time once again! In this episode of the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Weiss, Kat Shoulders, and Zach Kazan are fielding questions from you, our listeners, submitted via Instagram and our Worn & Wound+ Slack channel. For this round of questions, we field queries from a diverse range of topics, including our favorite straps to splurge on, the bags we carry, and even what we did before our Worn & Wound days. We also tackle the age old question of how we know it’s time to sell a watch, and we even touch on the possibility of the Windup Watch Fair heading to the UK (spoiler alert: no definitive plans yet, but we love to think about it). We love answering your questions and will be sure to do more episodes like this in the future, so if you want a chance to submit your own question, hit the link for our Worn & Wound+ Slack channel in the show notes below.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 2023 Formula 1 season drew to a close this weekend with the final race once again taking place in Abu Dhabi in the UAE. The drivers and constructors championships were long since decided, but many of the remaining positions for both teams and drivers came down to the final laps, delivering the last bits of drama of the season in some unexpected ways. Our own Blake Buettner was at the race, coming out of Dubai Watch Week the week prior, so this is a special episode recounting the experience, the race, and the season as a whole. The race in Abu Dhabi capped the most dominant season of the sport ever witnessed, with Max Verstappen claiming his 19th victory of the 22 race season, and his 3rd consecutive driver’s championship in the process. Red Bull as a team won all but a single race this season, and did so with what appeared to be relative ease. As decisive as the season was, there was still plenty of racing to enjoy behind the Red Bulls, and plenty to look forward to in 2024.

For this bonus edition of the Worn & Wound Podcast Zach Kazan sits down with Ryan White, who is the Senior Creative Director over brands like Fossil and Zodiac. He’s one of the creative masterminds behind some seriously fun releases this year such as the 100 Year Anniversary Disney | Fossil Collection, which includes the iconic Mickey Mouse Watch, as well as the wild, ‘90s-infused Zodiac x Worn & Wound Super Sea Wolf Laser Tag Limited Editions. Ryan is an enthusiast through and through. From diving to design and from pop culture to deep horology, Ryan knows what he’s talking about. Chances are you’ve already interacted with his designs, now you get to meet the man behind those decisions.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.

What was billed as the biggest racing spectacle of the season took place in Las Vegas this past weekend, and after a rocky start, the race itself actually delivered on its promise. Tight racing throughout saw multiple lead changes and no shortage of great passes among the field. We saw some triumphant comebacks and late charges from the back of the pack, along with plenty of contact along the way. That said, the end result felt inevitable from the get go, but this one was far from certain for much of the race.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Blake is recording straight from Dubai, where he’s been taking in the sights, sounds, and watches of Dubai Watch Week. He’s joined by Mark Kauzlarich, who you probably know from his great photography and his work as an editor at Hodinkee. Blake and Mark discuss the general vibe of Dubai Watch Week (in short, lots of crazy watches, cars, and everything else exotic) and some of their favorite watches making their debut at the show, including an Oris with an unusual colorful dial and an absolutely crazy MB&F Horological Machine.

On this episode of Changing Gears Kat is joined by James Helms, co-founder of Worn & Wound, and Evan Perrone, of Cannodale Bikes who is both an avid cyclist and watch enthusiast. The three focus their conversation on E-Bikes, discussing the different classes of E-Bikes, who they’re made for, and the stigma around them in the bike community. There’s also a bit of good ol’ gear chat as well. We’re stoked that Evan was able to come back on the podcast and hope to have him back again!

On this episode of Time on Screen, Zach welcomes Worn & Wound contributor Brett Braley to the podcast to talk about Todd Field’s Tár, starring Cate Blanchett as Lydia Tár, one of the most memorable movie characters in years. Tár became an object of fascination for many movie lovers a year ago when it hit theaters. In a period of time dominated by mass market, IP derived entertainment, Tár stands out as a film filled with ideas, with an all-time great performance from Blanchett at the center of it. Brett has a background in menswear and other pockets of the luxury world, making him the perfect guest to discuss the many aesthetic pleasures of Tár, from Lydia’s costuming to the immaculate set and production design.

This week on the podcast, Blake and the team welcome Taylor Welden, Creative Director at Carryology, to the show. Carryology is a leading online resource for all things carry, from bags, to wallets, to luggage, they cover it all. The world of bags is a watch-like rabbit hole, and we always knew there was a lot of overlap between these two enthusiast communities, and chatting with Taylor makes it clear why. This conversation goes deep into Taylor’s love of titanium, how the small details matter in bag design, and why the Bic lighter is one of the most well designed objects of all time. Taylor also talks about the challenges and rewards of working on bag collaborations with small brands, another area with deep similarities to the watch 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.

In this episode of A Week In Watches we take a closer look at the some exciting news from Oris, Ming, G-Shock, and more. You may have heard that this year marks the 40th anniversary of G-Shock, something they’ve been celebrating throughout 2023. This week, we got a pair of new watches from the brand as part of the celebration, and they are some of the coolest square cased G-Shocks we’ve ever seen. These watches get ultra-light carbon cases and include a pretty wild colorway that is one of our favorite uses of the color purple in recent memory. Cheers to you, G-Shock, and may we say many happy returns.Elswhere, Ming dabbles in rose gold with a new 37.04 Monopusher Chronograph, that even gets a solid gold dial with a deep guilloché pattern, and it really works. Also opting for warm tones heading into fall we find Oris and Collective Horology with a new Divers Seventy-Five, which embraces a funky set of orange and brown colors across its dial, along with the retro-Arabic numerals. If that’s not quite your think we’ve got something very green from Zenith in a new Chronomaster Sport done with Aaron Rodgers.Big thanks to the sponsor of this week’s episode: Citizen and their new Citizen Promaster Skyhawk watches – with unparalleled functionality and utility. The new release continues Citizen’s focus on style, versatility, and performance for the pilot or aviation enthusiast in their Promaster Air Collection.

Last week, Formula 1 visited Brazil's famed Interlagos track for round 21 of the season. Like last year, this was a sprint weekend, meaning less time for setup, and more time for racing drama, which we saw plenty of. In this episode, Ricardo and Blake dive into the details of the race weekend, lamenting the string of horrible luck Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc has been experiencing the past season and a half. This race saw his exit from a P2 starting position during the formation lap leading into the race. Lando Norris was happy to take over that position during the race itself, pushing Verstappen early in the race, and keeping a respectable distance from the leader much of the way.

On this week’s podcast, Blake welcomes Jason Gong, founder of Complecto, to the podcast. Jason joins Blake and Zach to chat about the origins of Complecto, their mission to advance diversity within the watch community, and the launch of their first limited edition, a super cool gray dialed Jet Star made in collaboration with Bulova. Along the way, they also chat about how Jason’s obsession with watches began at an early age, how his work in Silicon Valley and in finance informs the ideas behind Complecto, and a whole lot 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.

Round 20 of the 2023 Formula 1 season saw action in sunny Mexico City around the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez circuit, which threw plenty of heat at the cars over the course of the weekend. That meant high degradation on the tires, and little in the way of clean air for the cars to enjoy. We saw yet another lap 1, turn 1 incident punish an overly aggressive move by Sergio Perez hoping to take advantage of a tremendous start, unfortunately leading to his retirement from the race in front of his home crowd. The front of the pack was quickly filled by the Ferrari and Mercedes cars vying for podium spots behind Verstappen, who took his record breaking 16th win of the season. A strong race from Hamilton saw him taking P2, while the race’s pole sitter, Leclerc, held on for P3.

This week on the podcast, Blake welcomes Zach Weiss and Zach Kazan to talk about a pair of recent releases from Omega and Ming that cover similar ground in their use of interesting and uncommon materials, all in the name of reducing weight. The new Omega Planet Ocean diver uses a titanium movement to cut weight in a package that’s already quite chunky, and the Ming LW.01 is a literal record setter, lighter in weight than any other mechanical watch.These non-traditional watches have us thinking about the merits of lighter weight watches in general and also the use of new materials more broadly, these two new releases in particular inspired quite a bit of conversation.Today’s episode of the Worn and Wound Podcast is brought to you by Area 53 NYC– your go-to destination for unforgettable experiences.Experience the thrill of Area 53 NYC!

Time on Screen is back this week with a seasonally appropriate entry, an underrated mid-90s classic from the Master of Horror himself, John Carpenter. Zach Kazan is joined by Zach Weiss and Chris Antzoulis (all horror movie fans to their core) for this discussion of In the Mouth of Madness, the capstone to Carpenter’s “Apocalypse Trilogy,” and a personal favorite of this crew. There are other Carpenter horror movies that are more famous, but none that take place largely in New Hampshire, and few that are quite this unhinged, following Sam Neill’s insurance investigator as he tries to track down a missing horror writer whose latest novel has the power to make its readers insane, forever altering their reality, and bringing about the end of the world as we know it. In other words, perfect spooky season fare. There are watches in the movie as well, but In the Mouth of Madness really fits into this series for the way the narrative plays with time, using elliptical storytelling techniques to underscore the idea that our characters are losing their grip on reality.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 a special episode of A Week In Watches filmed live on the floor of our Windup Watch Fair New York. This episode features first hand looks at some of the new watches released at or around the fair with commentary from the people behind them. This year’s fair was our biggest ever, so unfortunately we weren’t able to get to all the new watches, but we pulled aside a handful of the most interesting watches caught our eye during the fair. This includes watches from Laco, Baltic, Isotope and more, along with some of the EDC brands that showed up this year. There was no shortage of exciting watches to check out, and as always, some incredible watch spotting in the crowd of enthusiasts that showed up.Thanks to our lead sponsors: Oris, Christopher Ward, Zodiac, G-Shock, and Citizen for making such a great impression upon first walking into the fair!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.

As we enter the final stages of the 2023 Formula 1 season, the cars and teams look to make their final updates to secure position, and even to plan ahead for next season. Round 19 saw action return to the US for the race at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX, and this Sprint race weekend brought plenty of drama both on the track, and off it. We saw competitive racing out front thanks to a revitalized Mercedes car running a new floor, a strong presence from McLaren, and of course the ever present Red Bull leading the pack. The final result was anything but predictable this week, with a determined Lew Hamilton chasing down Max Verstappen, though his bid for victory ultimately fell just a few seconds short. Ultimately, it wouldn't have mattered as the Mercedes driver (along with Ferrari's Charles Leclerc) was handed a DSQ thanks to a floor plank being out of spec after the race.

This week on the podcast, Blake and Zach are on mic after a long Windup weekend to recap the show, including our favorite watches and experiences over the course of the show. This was a particularly memorable Windup Watch Fair, with a record number of brands across two floors of the Altman building, with all of them bringing their best watches to the show. We also saw more EDC brands exhibiting than ever before, adding a new dimension to the experience, and were able to connect with a number of Worn & Wound+ members throughout the weekend, underscoring the community feel of the event. Before the Windup recap, Blake takes us through a cool new diving experience he had with the FDNY, as well as an attempted mod of one of his favorite Tudors.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 the podcast, Blake welcomes Kyle Snarr and Nelly Calhoun to the podcast to talk all things Windup Watch Fair, which returns to New York City this weekend. The New York City fair is always special, and this year’s is our biggest yet, taking place over two floors of the Altman Building, including a number of brands making their Windup debut. In this episode, Kyle and Nelly answer questions submitted by our Worn & Wound+ Slack community about the ins and outs of Windup, how the show comes together, and the best way to get the most out of your Windup experience. We also highlight some exciting changes to this year’s program, including an expanded “EDC Alley” and an exciting debut from Fossil.

A Week In Watches returns with big news from Seiko, who revealed a pair of new Prospex references which celebrate the brand’s history in land-based watches. The pair of limited editions each pick up something special from Seiko’s history, starting with the SPB411 GMT, a watch that recalls the Navigator Timer of the ’60s, which was Seiko first GMT to feature a rotating bezel. The second is a revival of the Landmaster in celebration of its 30th anniversary, where Seiko has brought back the 3 dimensional compass bezel and blue gradient dial. Both work exceptionally well, and highlight the brand’s deep tool watch roots at their very best.Elsewhere we were thrilled to see a new release from Baltic this week, which shifted away from old-school-cool dive watches and put focus on classic field watches. The frame works brilliantly here with lumed applied numerals, a svelte case, and a trick crown that sits flush with the case wall. The watch boasts 4 different dials at launch, and is a welcome expansion of the brand’s refined sense of design. Finally, new releases from Nomos and Ming, as well as a collaboration between Montblanc/Minerva and Collective round out the news that’s caught our attention this week. Catch the full episode below for the run down, and be sure to leave a comment on your thoughts in the video for us to highlight in the next episode.Thanks to this week’s sponsor, Shinola, for their support.To commemorate 10 years of American design and manufacturing, Shinola Detroit is proud to share this video that reveals the company and its employees as a team that can carve a distinct pathway forward with their own sense of, as they say, “timeless American design.”This cinematic video gives an insider glimpse of their watchmakers assembling timepieces, soaring views of the Detroit headquarters, and shares perspective on the past decade as well as Shinola’s aims for the future.Learn more about Shinola’s Timeless American Design, their latest watch and apparel releases right here.You will also be able to see a selection of Shinola’s watches and fine goods at Windup Watch Fair NYC on October 20-22 at The Altman Building, located at 135 W 18th St, New York, NY.

Time On Track returns this week with a look at Round 18 of the 2023 Formula 1 season: Qatar. The newly resurfaced Lusail International Circuit was particularly punishing to the Pirelli tires this week, so much so that a mandate was handed down to the teams stipulating that tires could go no longer than 17 lap stints at a time. This created 3 and 4 stop races for many of the teams, and plenty of drama in the Sprint race leading up to Sunday. Perhaps the biggest challenge for the drivers this week was the track limits at a few select corners, which led to a plethora of deleted lap times and eventual 5 second penalties.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Blake and Zach are talking about a range of new releases, including a big new release from Collective and Montblanc, as well as a fascinating modern take on the field watch from Baltic. They also catch up about some recent travel (including a visit to the Vortic headquarters in Fort Collins, CO), and reviews that they’ve completed recently on a 90s favorite and a new entry in the “leisure sport” category.Today’s episode of the Worn and Wound Podcast is brought to you by the New York Windup Watch Fair. Windup Watch Fair is a three-day-long shopping experience that brings watch brands and customers together in a fun, approachable, and engaging environment. Always free and open to the public, Windup Watch Fair encourages everyone from seasoned collectors to first-time watch buyers to come in, take a look, shop, and talk watches.

This week on the podcast, Blake and Zach are chatting with Asher Rapkin, co-founder of Collective Horology, about their latest release, the 1858 Minerva Monopusher Chronograph “Blue Arrow” P.05. This is a seriously high end, and beautiful, chronograph that takes inspiration from vintage Minerva stopwatches from the 1940s and 50s. Asher takes us through how the watch was conceived, with a variety of different design cues coming together to form a watch that represents a fascinating bit of “historical nonfiction,” as Asher puts it. It’s a watch that Minerva never made, but could have if they decided to move in a slightly different direction.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.

A Week In Watches returns this week with a look at a trio of divers that take their inspiration from the past, and apply in a thoroughly modern way. No faux lume or tropical dials in sight, prompting us to wonder if that trend is behind us. Divers from Oris, Tudor, and Seiko all paint a clear picture of a way forward that’s not a carbon copy of the past. You might say Seiko has always been ahead in that game, and their latest Prospex divers, which bring the 62MAS flavor into a tidy modern skindiver case that we’ve loved since it was released in 2020. If this is what we can expect more of, count us in.Elsewhere, Farer dropped a pair of new chronographs called the Chrono-Contempo with colorways inspired by two vibrant streets found in London. These are Farer through and through, with unexpected colors and a clean, modern design language. As usual, Farer nails the proportions here thanks to their use of the hand wound SW510M from Sellita.Finally, a collaboration between our friends at Fratello and Minase comes together for the second time, continuing a trend of subtle yet powerful dial executions from the pair. The latest is the M-3 Nori, and gets a dial inspired by Japanese seaweed, which comes together way better than you might expect. Here’s to the next one.

On this episode of Time on Screen, Zach welcomes Ricardo Simé to the podcast to chat about Focus, an underseen 2015 film starring Will Smith and Margot Robbie. Focus has become something of a cult favorite since it came and went at the box office nearly ten years ago, and it strikes a particular chord if you’re a watch collector with what are some frankly terrifying scenes involving watch theft. Theft is something that’s on the mind of many watch collectors these days - it seems like a week doesn’t go by where a story isn’t shared of someone losing their watch to a thief, so Focus is incredibly topical at the moment. In addition to that, it’s just an incredibly entertaining crime film with a ton of great screwball energy and real chemistry between Smith and Robbie, with one of the best gambling scenes we’ve ever seen on film.

Time On Track looks to Japan this week for round 17 of the Formula 1 season at the famous Suzuka Circuit. Verstappen returned to form this week, taking a dominant victory and bagging the World Constructor Championship for the team in the process, despite Sergio Perez's most forgettable race of the season. Some strange team orders were the subject of plenty of discussion, including one call that saw a last lap swap between the Alpine drivers, and another that played out between the Mercedes cars looking to keep a Ferrari at bay. Sergio's strange race also has us wondering if Lewis Hamilton might find himself within striking distance of P2 in the Drivers Championship before the season is out.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are taking over while Blake is on vacation for a special episode where they tackle questions from our Worn & Wound+ Slack community. These questions were a lot of fun and really ran the gamut, covering everything from flexing your Rolex at the gym, to caring for your watch bracelets, and favorite articles and photography campaigns we’ve been involved with. We’ll definitely be doing this again, so if you have questions for members of the Worn & Wound team, drop them in the comments.
