The Worn & Wound Podcast

Racing returns this week with the first of a double header featuring Singapore and Japan, and the Marina Bay Street Circuit offered what is to this point, the best race of the season. For the first time this season, and the first time more than 15 races, a team other than Red Bull claimed victory, and without the dominant Verstappen in the lead, the door was opened to the most competitive racing out front we’ve seen all season long. There was effectively a 4 way battle for the top spot that ran right to the end of the race, with Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz taking the checkered flag just ahead of Lando Norris, and Lewis Hamilton.Singapore’s relatively bumpy street circuit meant Red Bull wasn’t able to run their suspension in it’s usual, very low, sweet spot. This threw the car’s aerodynamics off just enough to bring the car back to earth a bit, with high mid field pace that saw Verstappen finish in P5, and Perez in P8. Ferrari took advantage this week, qualifying in pole position, and a good enough race strategy to maintain the lead through the race. Both Mercedes cars the McLaren of Lando Norris made thing interesting out front, however, with a brilliant strategy call by Mercedes late in the race nearly handing them the victory.We’ll return next week with a look at the race in Japan around the iconic Suzuka Circuit, which we expect a full return to form by the Red Bull cars, but this is a sport where nothing can be taken for granted, so here’s hoping we’ll get some more competitive racing.

Today on the Worn & Wound podcast, Blake Buettner is checking in from his recent dive trip in Florida with Tudor, and is joined by fellow dive watch aficionado Justin, AKA @the_wristorian on Instagram, where you’ve probably seen him post tons of amazing content on just about everything you can imagine relating to dive watch history. He’s a true authority, and a genuine enthusiast, and his feed is worthy of a follow if you’re not already checking in. In this conversation, Blake and Justin discuss all the action on the ground and under the surface with Tudor, including their experience at the Man in the Sea museum, home to SEALAB-I and many other important pieces of diving history, and their reactions to the latest Tudor FXD, this time clad in a black dial. This one is absolutely loaded with dive watch content, so get ready for a full exploration of the Tudor dive watch lineup, and where it stands now with the latest addition to the collection.

Time on Screen is back this week, and Zach Kazan welcomes his Worn & Wound colleagues Nelly Calhoun, the team’s Events Manager, and Nina Flanders, Worn & Wound’s Customer Experience Coordinator. In this episode, they’re talking about Greta Gerwig’s Barbie. In a huge movie year, no movie has been more talked about than Barbie, and there is so much to discuss, including an all-time great triple watch-spot on the wrist(s) of Ryan Gosling, a hilarious and poignant performance by Margot Robbie, and the unlikely way a huge piece of IP like Barbie was able to start a nuanced discussion of feminist ideas among huge numbers moviegoers. It’s an unprecedented movie in a lot of ways, and this conversation dives into what makes Barbie so unique, and why it’s likely to endure for 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.

This week on the podcast, Blake is joined by Zach Kazan to talk about all the big news coming out of Geneva Watch Days, including an impressive collaboration between MB&F and H. Moser for Only Watch, an impressive new chronograph from Sylvain Pinaud, and a Doxa that, perhaps, stole the show (for better or worse). But first, they talk about what will surely be one of the most talked about releases of the year, the new Swatch x Blancpain Scuba Fifty Fathoms. It was inevitable that Swatch would follow up the massive success of the MoonSwatch with something, but it’s kind of hard to believe that we’re really here talking about a colorful, BioCeramic take on the vaunted Fifty Fathoms. Let us know what you think of the new Scuba Fifty, as well as the big Geneva Watch Days releases, in the comments below, or in our new Slack community, which you can join by clicking here.Today’s episode of the Worn and Wound Podcast is brought to you by the New York Windup Watch Fair.

Time On Track returns to discuss round 15 of the 2023 Formula 1 season, which saw rain free racing happen around Italy's historic Monza circuit. Ferrari threw everything but the kitchen sink at their car this week to bring the fight to Red Bull around their home track, and they damn near succeeded. While the inevitable 10th straight Verstappen victory indeed came to pass, Carlos Sainz managed to lead the first 19 laps from pole, providing us our first bit of meaningful racing at the front of the pack this season. Sergio managed to nab P2, but Carlos earned a P3 finish for his heroic drive, as well as the well deserved driver of the day award.

This week, a special episode of the podcast, hosted by Worn & Wound cofounder Zach Weiss and featuring fellow cofounder James Helms and Jonathan Ferrer, founder of Brew Watch Co. Jonathan has been a friend to us at Worn & Wound since the earliest days of Brew, and this conversation is a fun look back at the history of his brand, including an early Worn & Wound limited edition, the watch that saved Brew, and the triumph of the hugely successful Metric. Jonathan and Zach also give us the inside story on the just launched Brew x Worn & Wound Metric Regulators, a colorful and slightly tweaked version of the original Metric that you can read more about right here.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 summer break is behind us, and we return for another episode of Time On Track, covering round 14 of the Formula 1 season in the Netherlands, at the Zandvoort circuit. At this point in the season, there are two things we can come to expect: a Verstappen win, and rain coming into play over the race weekend. As we've become accustomed to in recent races, rain did play a role throughout the weekend, and while there were a few predictable effects of this, for the most part, the race ended in somewhat predictable fashion. And that's a credit to the drivers this week.

Today on the podcast, Blake Buettner is joined by Worn & Wound cofounder James Helms and Chad Tsagris, who runs Laco, Out of Order and other brands in the United States, and is the SVP of Watch Gang (you’ve almost certainly seen him at a Windup if you’ve attended one recently). This is a wide ranging discussion covering why it’s scary to dive into vintage watches, the difficulty surrounding buying a Rolex at retail, and the late breaking news that Rolex has bought Bucherer, the longtime luxury watch retailer.This episode is brought to you by Worn & Wound+, a free online community for like-minded enthusiasts to connect and discuss watches, gear, and more.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach and Blake are discussing a wide range of topics, inspired by the recent debut of our “Watches and What Else” series, focusing on the artwork of Bryan Braddy. Just on the Worn & Wound team alone, the staff represents a huge variety of watch adjacent interests, and we’ll be digging into those more on the site in the coming months. Everything from record collecting, to mechanical keyboards, to open water diving is on the table. But first, we’ve got a new releases to talk about from Brew in the first ever mechanical iteration of the Metric, and a very clever memento mori watch from Mr. Jones.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, we’ve got a full roster of Worn & Wound team members on the mic to talk about some of the recent news in the watch world, as well as a topic that’s near and dear to all of us: navigating the enthusiast forums to sell your watches online. Zach Kazan recently wrote an editorial that asked if this process has ever been more problematic, and on this episode the whole team is here to share their thoughts. There’s also a discussion about a big new release from Longines, and one of the more interesting small brands we’ve come across as of late, the Impossible Watch Company, based in Talkeetna, Alaska. All that, plus a spirited defense of The Snyder Cut, coming from Zach W. and Zach K., as you’d expect.

On this special episode of Time on Screen, we’re coming to you live from the Editorial Lounge at the Chicago Windup Watch Fair, where Zach Kazan was joined by Worn & Wound’s Head of Partnerships, Kyle Snarr, and Neall Brick from Citizen. They’re there to discuss Once Upon a Time…In Hollywood, Quentin Tarantino’s ninth feature film. This is one of the best watch spotting in recent years, primarily for a well documented mistake that has a Citizen chronograph on Brad Pitt’s wrist that definitely didn’t exist in 1969, when the film takes place. That’s the jumping off point for a spirited discussion about the film, the complicated reaction to it, and Tarantino’s career.There’s also plenty of talk about the watch featured in the film, which was the inspiration for the recently released Citizen 50th Anniversary Tsuno Chronograph, a 1970s inspired gold tone chronograph that looks particularly at home on a bund strap.We’re grateful to our friends at Citizen for making this episode possible. Their Promaster collection is built on a century worth of technological research and innovation. The collection represents professional-grade sports watches built for sea, land, and air. Each watch is designed to overcome the elements and empower the wearer to “Go Deeper, Go Further and Go Higher” and the watch casting in Once Upon a Time…In Hollywood is a solid representation of that ethos.To learn more about the Citizen Tsuno Chronograph 50th Anniversary Limited Edition and explore the collection, head to citizenwatch.com.

A Week In Watches returns with a look at a plethora of new releases that include updates from Christopher Ward, Glashütte Original, Nomos, and Tissot. Everyone has a new dial color or case size, it would seem, but they all work well here, bringing new renditions to old favorites, and further dialing in already great platforms. The big news this week comes from Longines, who redesigned their HydroConquest family with a new collection of GMT watches. Unique colorways and a few odd details on the dial preserve some of that classic HydroConquest character, while showing some serious sings of maturity in the process.In other news, we’re about a year away from the 2024 summer Olympic games in Paris, and Omega is ready to kick things off with a new Seamaster 300commemorating the games. Omega and the Olympics go way back, like way way back, so it’s no surprise to see Omega getting a head start on things with a new LE, and we suspect that this won’t be the last to do so.Finally, can you ever have too much of a good thing? Tissot doesn’t think so, and just keeps iterating on the wildly popular PRX range, most recently with new dial colors and even a fully gold plated example in their 35mm Powermatic 80 PRX line. It should come as no surprise that they work rather well. Catch more details on these watches in our full intro.Reminder that you can catch us again in 2 weeks for more watches, people, and news in episode 62 of A Week In Watches.

This week on the podcast, Blake and Zach sit down to talk about some of the watches they’ve reviewed recently, including what might be the ultimate Zenith Defy, as well as the summer ready TAG Heuer Carrera Skipper, a reissue of one of the most sought after of all Heuers. There are also some fun new releases to talk about, including a new Vulcain with a dive table that’s tough to wrap your arms around, and a pair of new Nomos Ahois in a more compact size.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 Time on Screen, Zach Kazan and Blake Buettner are both fresh off of seeing Oppenheimer, one of the biggest and most talked about movies to be released in years, covering events that Christopher Nolan seems to think are the most important in all of human history. That might be up for some debate, but it’s just one of many things to tackle from this dense, loud, visually impressive, and head spinning film. Of course, as a period piece, there are some historical vintage watches to discuss that appear on screen, but the movie is so immersive and so full of ideas, it’s not likely to leave you distracted by watch spotting.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 Track returns to examine the final race before the summer break, and it's one our favorite tracks on the calendar. This is round 13, the Belgian GP at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps. This was an action packed weekend that featured a sprint shootout and race, a whole lotta rain, and one inevitable winner. Max Verstappen took his 9th win of the season with a phenomenal performance starting from 6th on the grid (thanks to a new gearbox taken prior to the race). Sergio Perez got the performance he was looking for, finishing a somewhat distant second, followed closely by Charles Leclerc, and Lewis Hamilton. The McLaren team continued to look strong throughout the weekend, with some masterful driving from both Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris, and were it not for a lap 1, turn 1 incident, might have seen one of them on the podium.

This week on the podcast, Blake and Kat are joined by Barbara Palumbo, a longtime fixture in the watch enthusiast community and a friend of the show who you might know better as @whatsonherwrist on Instagram. Barbara is one of our favorite personalities in the watch world, and as you’ll hear in this conversation, is an exceptional storyteller. Barbara tells us about the genesis of her children’s book inspired by an Oris watch, reminisces about watch trade shows of the past and what makes Dubai Watch Week in particular so special, and we get to hear the origin story of her own limited edition watch made in collaboration with Out of Order to celebrate her 50th birthday.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 edition of Time on Screen, Zach Kazan and Kyle Snarr recount their experience with Indiana Jones and dip into the newest installment of the franchise, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. Zach gives us all the details around his recent red carpet experience at the LA premiere of the film (more on that here) and gets into the watch on Indy’s wrist—Hamilton’s classically-designed Boulton.From there the episode transitions into a first for the Time on Screen podcast, Zach gets the chance to interview the Prop Master from the film, Ben Wilkinson. Together they dive deep into the role of the ‘property master’ and how objects on screen should always help move the story forward. A big thanks to Hamilton, Disney, Lucasfilm and our guest Ben Wilkinson for making this episode a reality!

We’re back with a fresh episode of A Week In Watches, covering news from Norqain, Oris, Vulcain, and of course, Linde Werdelin. Additionally, it wouldn’t be a new week without a new collaboration to discuss, and this time it comes courtesy of our friends at Massena LAB and Revolution Magazine in the form of a new, mostly original take on the Uni-Racer Chronograph. Elsewhere, Oris returns to the baseball field to honor the great Milwaukee (okay, and Atlanta) Brave, Hank Aaron with a new colorway of their Big Crown Pointer Date. Another unique configuration of an existing watch released this week is a new Octo Moonphase from Linde Werdelin, who still have a knack for killer case architecture and open dial work.A favorite release this weeks comes from Vulcain, who is once again bringing back the Nautical Cricket, a diving alarm watch with a gnarly inner bezel which includes a full decompression table. This is a historic watch that’s more than just a novelty, it’s got some serious pedigree under its belt that dates back to the early ’60s. Plus, it offers two caseback options, a move we rarely see at this price point. Keep an eye out for more on that one coming soon. Until then, enjoy this week’s episode below.A quick note on a programming change with A Week In Watches: this series will be moving to a bi-monthly format, allowing us more time to bring you a broader selection of curated news, at an even better production quality. A lot of work goes into creating these, and we want to make sure we can maintain the best possible balance to bring you our thoughts on all the people, watches, and stories from the industry. This change will take effect beginning next month.This week’s episode is brought to you by Artem straps. Artem is a modern watch strap maker out of Australia creating a high quality sailcloth-style watch straps. After much testing and iteration, Artem developed a meticulous material selection process which landed on a unique blend of materials that offered just the right finish, flexibility, and water resistance. The upper side of their straps are an embossed synthetic, while the underside is a combo of coated leather and natural rubber. The results are impeccable, made with a quality usually only found in very high-end OEM straps. Visit artemstraps.com to learn more about the brand and its array of products.

Time On Track returns for round 12 of the 2023 Formula 1 season with the race in Hungary. Ricardo and Blake react to the new qualifying format trialed at this race (a change we’d like to see made permanent), as well as all the race drama that unfolded on track on Sunday. The end result may have been predictable, but there was still plenty to ponder as we head into the mid season. McLaren continues to storm up the grid with another impressive performance from Lando Norris, who finished P2, and rookie Oscar Piastri, who once again came tantalizingly close to his first podium. Can Mercedes replicate their customer team’s jump in pace? They’ll need to if they want any chance of closing the gap to Red Bull in this weekend’s race in Belgium.

This week on the podcast, we’re going back to the 90s for a discussion about the unique nostalgia that period right before the turn of the millennium. We had a great conversation with Gabe Reilly from Collective Horology in front of a crowd at the Windup Watch Fair in Chicago, and are sharing that here this week. The 1990s saw a lot of great (or at least interesting) watches that perhaps don’t get the respect they deserve, and we try to figure out why in this panel discussion.This episode is brought to you by Artem. Artem is a modern strap maker out of Australia. During their search for great aftermarket watch straps, it became apparent to them that oftentimes, the sailcloth straps offered by many retailers felt like a bit of an afterthought. The quality just wasn’t up to par with straps of other materials. This opportunity provided motivation for them to embark on a journey to create a high quality sailcloth-style watch strap that they’d want to wear everyday, no matter the activity. After much testing and iteration, Artem developed a meticulous material selection process which landed on a unique blend of materials that offered just the right finish, flexibility, and water resistance. The upper side of their straps are an embossed synthetic, while the underside is a combo of coated leather and natural rubber. The result speaks for itself… straps with that classic look and functionality of sailcloth, but with the outer satin sheen they’ve become known for and quality usually only found in very high-end OEM straps.

This week on the podcast, we’re coming to you live from the Windup Watch Fair in Chicago, and we’re thrilled to be joined for the second year in a row by James Stacey and Jason Heaton, who you almost certainly know as the co-hosts of The Grey NATO podcast. Blake Buettner and Kat Shoulders joined the TGN guys on stage in front of a live audience on Sunday afternoon of Windup weekend, for a wide ranging discussion that featured a recap of a Lake Michigan dive trip with Benrus the day before, insight into what goes into the decision to actually buy a watch, candid thoughts on some big new releases, and a proper evaluation of how to pronounce “Pelagos.” Just like last year, this is a two part episode, so be sure to look out for the rest of the conversation on TGN’s feed tomorrow, which includes a great Q&A with Windup attendees.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 a bunch of complications and some pretty cool case materials. We start with the UK’s Garrick and their Regulator MK2. From there we head to Austria to check out Habring2’s new Top-Seconds chronograph. After, it’s off to Switzerland for Ochs Und Junior’s new, but old Ochs line Moonphase. Lastly, it’s back to the US for Zodiac and their new line of white ceramic Super Sea Wolfs.This week’s sponsor is the Windup Watch Shop. New in the shop are some fun, colorful watches that are perfect for the summer like the Citizen Promaster Dive Eco-Drive Unite with Blue and the G-SHOCK MTG Aurora Oval.

Time On Track returns for round 11 of the 2023 Formula 1 season, the British Grand Prix at Silverstone. We love this track for the often entertaining racing it lends itself to, and this weekend was no exception. The biggest surprise of this race was the pace shown by the McLaren cars driven by Lando Norris and the rookie Oscar Piastri, who finished in P2 and P4 respectively, and would were it not for an untimely safety car would have likely secured two spots on the podium. We saw another early qualifying exit from Sergio Perez, and a horrid slate of bad luck for McLaren's main rival, Alpine.

In this edition of Time on Screen, recorded following a festive Fourth of July weekend during which no members of the Worn & Wound team were eaten by a shark, Zach Kazan and Kyle Snarr examine Jaws, Steven Spielberg’s 1975 classic, and perhaps the ultimate summer movie. Jaws is often credited with creating the modern summer blockbuster, and in this conversation we look at exactly how that happened, from an ingenious and novel marketing strategy to old fashioned great technical filmmaking.As watch fans are likely aware, Jaws is also a great watch spotting movie, and has made a cult hit out of the humble Alsta Nautoscaph, worn by Richard Dreyfuss throughout the film. Kyle has spent significant time with the Alsta, and gives his impressions of the watch, along with some thoughts on alternative watch casting for other members of the Orca shark hunting crew.Show Notes: Affordable Vintage: Deep Dive with the Alsta Nautoscaph “Jaws” DiverWatches, Stories, and Gear: The “Jaws” Watch, Heath Ledger’s Joker, and MoreAlsta Resurfaces—Introducing the Nautoscaph II Dive WatchWatches on the Screen: Jaws

Aaaaaaaaand we’re back for episode 57 of a Week in Watches! It’s been a crazy couple of weeks for launches which includes a bounty of 62 concept watches from the Only Watch auction, so we’re playing a little bit of catch up this week. We start with a trip to the stars with the new Ming 37.05 series 2 and then head to the races with the new Tudor FXDs. After, I couldn’t help but take another look at Only Watch focusing on the incredible offerings from Baltic, Bvlgari, and Konstantin Chaykin. Our last topic was a surprise and surprising drop from Seiko in the form of a new 62MAS re-issue.This week’s sponsor is Windup Watch Fair Chicago 2023!

Time On Track returns this week with a look at the Austrian Grand Prix at the Red Bull Ring. Ricardo and Blake attempt to make sense of the track limits and what we’d like to see happen with turn 10 at this track, as well discuss what may have been the most entertaining part of the race weekend, the sprint race on a wet Saturday. The results at the top may not have been shocking, but the ordering of the teams directly below is still up in the air at this point in the season, with Ferrari making a strong play for the number 2 team after some upgrades.

On today's episode of Changing Gears, Kat is joined once again by Kyle Snarr, our Head of Partnerships here at Worn & Wound.

This week on the podcast, Blake, Zach Weiss, and Zach Kazan are talking about an unusually heavy schedule of new releases from some of the biggest brands in the business. Between new watches from Omega, Tudor, and a slate of one-offs for the Only Watch auction, there was a lot to catch up on. Let us know what you think of the Summer Blue collection celebrating the history of the Seamaster, and which of the week’s two big releases from Tudor has you most excited in the comments below.

What a week! On episode 56 of A Week in Watches we cover a lot, yet barely even scratch the surface of what launched (don’t worry, we’ll get back to it next week). We start off with a look at the second collaboration between Louis Erard and Massena LAB. From there, we descend the depths of the Omega Seamaster catalog with a special collection of 11 new watches for the lines 75th anniversary.After, there’s a speed round where we quickly cover the Tissot PRX 35mm, the Oris Divers Sixty-Five Steel 38mm Cotton Candy Collection, and the Cara Barrett x Timex collab. Whew. The last segment focuses on a truly epic project by Furlan Marri, the Secular Perpetual Calendar for the upcoming Only Watch auction in November.

This week on the podcast, Blake welcomes Ricardo Sime and Blake Malin to show to talk about a variety of topics in a freewheeling conversation, including our tendency to flip Tudors for other Tudors, what’s keeping Blake (Buettner) from picking up a Grand Seiko, and importance of a great bracelet on watches at a higher price point. There’s also an extended conversation on all things Seamaster, which took place almost a week before the big news from Omega that dropped recently. Did we conjure these new releases into existence? It’s definitely possible. The main topic this week is the concept of heritage inspired watches. It’s been over ten years since Tudor’s Black Bay helped usher in the era of vintage inspired everything, and we’re taking the temperature of the current state of heritage grounded designs, and how they contrast with more adventurous modern designs employed by some brands. How do you feel about vintage inspired watches in 2023? Has fatigue set it, or are you ready for more? Let us know in the comments.This episode is brought to you by the Chicago Windup Watch Fair.

On this week’s episode of A Week in Watches, Zach Weiss covers a diverse group of new releases. We start at the high end with some new chronographs by Singer Reimagined and then head over to a limited quartet by Elka with some help from Ace Jewelers. Next up was a truly wild creation by Schwarz Etienne that was designed by vaunted designer, Eric Giroud. Last, we celebrate Alpina’s 140th anniversary with a look at their incredibly limited and incredibly cool new square watches powered by a vintage caliber.This week’s episode was brought to you by the Windup Watch Shop.

The summer season is in full swing with round 9 of the 2023 Formula 1 season at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in the Canadian GP. Ricardo and Blake return to discuss the race, which saw most of its excitement take place in a very wet qualifying session. Despite the tire drama of qualifying, the starting order wasn't too far out of the norm, especially after a penalty knocked Hass' Kevin Magnussen off the front row. There was plenty more to discuss after this race, from a rebounding Aston Martin team, a Mercedes team that is finally understanding its car, and a worrying trend continuing for Sergio Perez. We talk about all this and more in the full episode below.

This week on the podcast, Zach is calling in from Los Angeles, where he was lucky enough to attend the premiere of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny with Hamilton, who have a watch in the film, and he chats with Blake about his experience at the big premier, and why this movie might be particularly interesting to watch enthusiasts. Then they move on to some notable new releases, including a smaller Tissot PRX, and a great new Longines Spirit Zulu Time GMT with a new 39mm case. And don’t miss the end of the episode, where Zach shares his controversial thoughts on a certain West Coast burger chain.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, Zach Weiss, and Zach Kazan are discussing some of the big watch news to come across their desks in the last week. Yes, this is what they do on the podcast almost every week, but this week the news was truly big, with the surprise launch of a new Rolex Daytona, and word of a true blue auction scandal hitting the watch world, thanks to a record breaking but questionable Speedmaster that was sold for over $3 million recently. We also got some great new releases from Seiko, including a throwback to a vintage favorite and a cult hit reborn for a new generation.

With our first year behind us (thanks for all the well wishes!), we’re back with episode 53 of A Week In Watches with new releases from Tissot, Breguet, Seiko & more. One of our favorite watches of the summer (thus far) has come from Tissot, and it’s a forged carbon regatta timer called the Sideral. Yes, it’s a callback to something they’ve done in the past, and yes, it’s still awesome. With a carbon case and Powermatic 80 movement, this is a ton of watch (and funk) for about $1,100, see more here. Elsewhere, Breguet gives us a first look at new Type 20 and Type XX watches, with a stunning new movement and a date window that may leave you scratching your head. Head to the video on YouTube to give us your take on the date, as well as the rest of the watches in this week’s episode.Rounding things out, we’ve got news of a new Pontos S Diver from Maurice Lacroix, which is a welcome site from the brand, though we wonder if it could have done with a slight bit of modernization? Speaking of, Seiko has modernized their King Seiko with a trimmer case architecture and a new movement which brings a date to the regular production modern King Seiko. Finally, IWC has brought the silver dial back to the Mark Pilot watch and it works about as well as you’d expect, which is to say, pretty damn well.This week’s episode was brought to you by the Windup Watch Shop.

Ricardo and Blake return to discuss round 8 of the 2023 Formula 1 season, which was run in Barcelona, Spain. The Mercs show signs of life, Aston takes a step back, Ferrari continues to struggle, and Verstappen remains dominant.

On this episode of Time on Screen, Zach is joined by Asher Rapkin, co-founder of Collective Horology. We return to the small screen this week to focus on what might just be as close as we’ll ever come to a consensus pick for the greatest television show of them all, The Sopranos. Zach and Asher reminisce about catching the series as it aired (they’re both kind of old) and acquiring those iconic DVD box sets, another collecting rabbit hole altogether. Then they dive into “Mr. Ruggerio’s Neighborhood,” the season 3 premiere that originally aired in the spring of 2001, setting the table for what some fans argue is the best single season of the show. This episode, which tracks an FBI team as they attempt to plant a listening device in the Soprano home (the “sausage factory”), is uniquely obsessed with time, and has what is easily one of the show’s great watch spots on Agent Harris. His Timex (with an Indiglo dial) is sneakily great character work, drawing a clear line between Tony and life of ill gotten gains, and the more humble means of the government employee just doing his job in trying to take him down.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, Zach Kazan, Zach Weiss, and Kat Shoulders are all in the studio. Maybe it’s the whole “recording in person” thing, but this one has a bit of everything, including a lengthy wrist check that dives into numerous tangents, from potential alternative terms for “strap monster” (and why we don’t refer to pants as “belt monsters”), weird watch tools we don’t know how to use, and how to solve the problem of too much text on a dial. Other topics in this totally normal episode of the podcast include our favorite Corvettes, toad straps, and watches that say Turbo on the dial. The main topic, such as it is, is a dive into our WatchRecon alerts, inspired by Zach Kazan’s recent editorial on the strange connection to old watch searches.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.

We're back after an unscheduled break that saw the cancellation of Round 6 of the F1 season, which was due to take place at Imola, due to heavy flooding in the Emilia Romagna region of Italy. Side note, you can learn more and even help those effected by visiting this web page outlining organizations set up to provide support. These events will mean the shortening of the F1 season from 23 races, to 22 races, though this past race in Monaco remains round 7 on the calendar. Monaco is of course the most glamorous date on the schedule, running through the streets of the Monte Carlo canton of the principality for the 80th time this year.

This week on the podcast, we’ve got summer on the mind. Blake Buettner, Kat Shoulders, and Zach Kazan sit down to talk about the ins and outs of the “summer watch” with our special guest Jessica “J.J.” Owens. J.J. is one of our favorite members of the watch community – her Instagram is a must follow for the french fry reviews alone – and she has a lot to say about the concept of the summer watch, along with a few recommendations and stories of summer watches past. She also tells us about her new venture, the Daily Grail, a watch website focusing on a fun and grounded approach to luxury, filtered through J.J.’s unique perspective.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 episode 51 of A Week In Watches we take a look at a trio of new Monaco watches from TAG Heuer leading into the race weekend in, well, Monaco, as well as a watch that’s taken shape almost entirely in the US of A from the workshop of J.N. Shapiro. Those two watches might be on opposite ends of the spectrum, but there’s plenty more to discuss in the middle, from a new Mathey Tissot x Massena LAB, Breitling Classic AVI watches (including one sweet re-edition), and news from Audemars Piguet, who’ve announced a new CEO to take the helm of the brand beginning next year. Plus, one spicy comment from last week’s episode.Be sure to catch next week’s episode, which marks one full year of A Week In Watches in, naturally, episode 52.

Time on Screen is back this week, and Zach Kazan and Zach Weiss are talking about a movie that doesn’t really have anything directly to do with watches, but has us thinking about some things pertaining to the industry. Ex Machina is Alex Garland’s 2014 directorial debut, and it’s a sci-fi story that explores the concept of artificial intelligence in an uncommonly thoughtful (and perhaps prescient) way. Artificial intelligence has worked its way into the public discourse in a major way over the last year, and it seems like each week there’s a new example of an advanced A.I. that can make us laugh, trick us, amaze us, or maybe even take our jobs someday. In this episode, we talk about why Ex Machina holds up so well nearly ten years after its release, and how artificial intelligence might be used someday in the watch industry. And, because there aren’t really any watches in Ex Machina, we take this opportunity to do some watch casting, deciding what watches work best on our main characters.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.

We’re also taking some questions from readers submitted through Worn & Wound+, our new (and completely free) Slack community.

We’re up to episode 50 of A Week in Watches! This week we’ve got several new releases with little in common other than being new. That’s fine by us though. First up is the brutal Ollech & Wajs 8001, their first integrated bracelet sports watch in 50 years. Then we have a Bremont testing instrument turned watch. After, we check out two new offerings from Aera, one in blue the other in gray. And finally, Omega dropped some new Aquaterra worldtimers that are worth knowing about.This week’s episode is sponsored by Whatnot, a live-stream auction app where you can buy and sell unique items.
