The Worn & Wound Podcast

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, it’s one of our favorite episodes of the year: our predictions and hopes for the year ahead. The early days of January are a great time – everyone is still in great spirits from the recent holiday season, and we’re all full of hope for what will surely be an exciting year of new releases, watchmaking innovations, and exciting developments across the horological landscape. The editorial team has thoughts on what we might see in the realm of “micro indies,” new executions of much loved complications, and, of course, completely incorrect predictions on what Tudor will do. We’re also talking about watch resolutions. Is that even a thing? Do you have any? If you do, be sure to drop them in the comments, and let us know if you have any predictions for 2023 as well.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 back to A Year in Watches 2022! This special two-part edition of A Week in Watches takes a look back at some of the biggest and best releases and moments in the watch industry from 2022. This week, we focus on micro and independent brands, but still cover a few of the big houses as well.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re answering your questions. It’s the first episode of the year (and the final recording of 2022) and we’re opening up the mailbag. It’s a full crew today, with Blake, Thomas, Patrick, Zach Weiss, Zach Kazan, Ed Jelley, and Kat Shoulders all checking in to ponder the many questions asked by Worn & Wound readers and listeners. Among them: Why do brands think power reserve is a flex? When is the Windup Watch Fair coming to Europe? And, do we suffer any form of watch burnout? We also return to the topic of meteorite dials, and display some pretty impressive soccer knowledge. If there are any questions that we didn’t answer that you’d like to see us cover in a future episode, be sure to drop it in the comments or send us a message, and we’ll get to it in our next mailbag episode.

It’s the last week of the year. News is slow, people are away or taking some needed time off – things are quiet. So, we’re doing something a bit different on A Week in Watches. Rather than looking back at the most recent week, we’re doing the whole dang year. Yes, it’s A Year in Watches 2022, which means there’s actually a ton to cover. So much, so that this is only part 1, with the second airing next week.This week, we focus on major brands and groups from MoonSwatches to Kodo constant force tourbillions. Next week… well, we still have a couple of the larger houses, but then we will focus on standout micro and independents.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’re taking the idea of a full house to new extremes as we close in on the end of 2022 to discuss our favorite releases of the year. Blake Buettner is joined by Zach Weiss, Thomas Calara, Zach Kazan, Ed Jelley, Patrick Marlett, and Kat Shoulders for a massive Year in Review discussion where the team discusses the watch news and releases that made the most waves in 2022.

This week’s episode of A Week in Watches will be slightly different. Actually, the next few weeks will be as news is slow this time of year. So, this week is a Q&A! We took three questions that were submitted by readers/viewers/listeners via our instagram account. But, we couldn’t skip the news entirely as Seiko wanted to get a headstart on next year and dropped some sweet limited editions.This week’s episode was brought to you by WatchCrunch.com.

In this installment of Time on Screen, Zach Kazan is joined by Blake Buettner and Kat Shoulders for a special holiday episode. That’s right, it’s Home Alone week, and we’re running through what is undeniably one of the best Christmas movies of our generation, detailing the saga of a child abandoned by his family, and left to fend for himself against a pair of violent criminals. Home Alone is hilarious and has become a holiday staple, but it’s also deeply strange if you stop to think about it for even a moment. Why, for instance, does Kevin’s mom wear what is by her own admission a fake Rolex when she is clearly the matriarch of the most powerful mob family in all of Chicago? These are the questions we want answered as we dive into the details and fan theories of a truly enduring holiday classic.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.

Today on the podcast, we’ve got Blake, Thomas, Patrick and Zach on mic for a loose conversation about an impressive Urwerk that recently sold at auction, a new Moser design built for the metaverse, and, of course, the new Avatar film. Patrick also fills us in on his favorite new purchase of the year (besides his PS5, anyway), as does the rest of the group. Plus, we ask the eternal question: can a QR code be aesthetically pleasing?

This week we’re looking at some shocking news from the Metaverse and H. Moser, and their latest Endeavour Centre Seconds called the Genesis. It’s part QR code, part haute horology, and entirely meta. We’ve also got news from Kurono about a new boutique in Tokyo, and three new watches to celebrate. Each features beautiful handmade urushi lacquer dials. Finally, we’ll take a brief look at some auction results that raised money for the Swiss Institute, and inspired some pretty spectacular one-off pieces.This week’s episode is sponsored by Whatnot, a live stream auction app where you can buy and sell unique items.

This week on the podcast, Blake is joined by Patrick, Thomas, and Zach, who will try to explain How to Buy a Watch, hot on the heels of our recent foray into providing some basic advice for newbies and veterans alike. Before that, a discussion about a new release from Alpina that revives a particular type of mechanical movement that’s rarely seen in modern watchmaking (spoiler alert: there are no mechanical engineers on this week’s episode). The team is also in a reflective mood, talking through some of the watches that have been lingering in their minds this year. Let us know if you have any of your own watch buying advice, and if there are any watches that are lingering in your mind as 2022 comes to a close.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 trio of great releases and then I give you My 2 Cents on something that has always bugged me. The first release is actually a finale, the last of the Timex Giorgio Galli S1 watches. Afterward, we peek at the new and lovely Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 Starwheel, followed by a couple of Alpinas with anachronistic movements. Lastly, I bemoan pesky pusher protectors – screw-down pushers. This week’s episode is sponsored by Bell & Ross and their new BR-X5. The new BR-X5 marks a bold new move for the brand, combining the urban sophistication of the integrated bracelet BR-05 design with a new sense of technical and architectural detailing. Inside, the new BR Cal 323 keeps time with chronometer accuracy and a 70-hour power reserve. To learn more about the BR-X5, click here.

This week, Time on Screen is putting a crew together to take down the ultimate prize: a deep dive into Steven Soderbergh’s Ocean’s Eleven. Zach Kazan is joined by Thomas Calara and Kyle Snarr to talk about one of the most quotable, rewatchable, and star studded movies made in our lifetime. There’s also ample discussion of Soderbergh’s sequel, Ocean’s Twelve (but less about Thirteen and Ocean’s 8, maybe next time), and of course a heavy dose of watch spotting. Remember: there’s money in those Incan matrimonial head masks, but only if you can move them.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, Patrick, and Thomas are chatting about some of the biggest news to hit the watch industry in quite some time, as Rolex has announced a new CPO program to see gently used watches through their authorized dealer networks. But before that, the team jumps into a recent release from Audemars Piguet that’s notably not a Royal Oak, and grapples with the very idea of evolving heritage watch designs as opposed to breaking new ground. Have we been robbed of original designs over the last generation of watchmaking? We examine that idea by framing it using one of the most popular watches of the last ten years: Tudor’s Black Bay.This week’s episode is brought to you by IWC Schaffhausen, and the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 Bronze.

This week’s episode welcomes managing editor Blake Buettner to the hot seat to discuss some breaking news from Rolex, a (very) limited edition Christopher Ward, and a regular production Tricompax from Baltic.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Blake Buettner, Thomas Calara, and Zach Kazan are back from a holiday break and talking about some of the recent releases that have made waves recently, including a pair of new Seamasters from Omega to celebrate a big Bond anniversary, and an IWC perpetual calendar that took us by surprise. There’s also a new Baltic chronograph to discuss, the much anticipated non-limited version of their Tricompax Chronograph.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.

Meanwhile, Oris’ new LE is proving very hot and Hanhart’s new chronographs pack a mechanical punch. All in all, some excellent releases.This week’s episode was brought to you by WatchCrunch.com.

Pop quiz, hotshot: what’s the 90s classic that gets mentioned on the Worn & Wound podcast more than we can possibly keep track of? It’s Speed, of course, and in this new episode of Time on Screen, Zach Kazan and Blake Buettner discuss the 90s action movie that isn’t just one of the best films of its kind from that decade, but an all time great watch spotting movie as well. If you’re a regular podcast listener, you already know that it’s hard for any member of the team to talk about the classic G-SHOCK DW5600 without making a reference to its big closeup on the wrist Keanu Reeves in the 1994 film, so Speed was a natural choice as one of the first episodes of Time on Screen. In this wide ranging conversation, Zach and Blake discuss their favorite scenes, the improbable physics that keep that bus on the road, and Speed’s place in the pantheon of 90s action flicks.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’ve got Blake Buettner, Patrick Marlett, Thomas Calara, and Zach Weiss talking about a wide range of topics. First and foremost, Patrick hasn’t seen The Big Lebowski, and the entire team needs to take a minute to adjust to this distressing new information. Watches are eventually discussed as well, including a new and very difficult to acquire Porsche Design chronograph, and the latest release from Massena LAB, a historically accurate tribute to the Mathey-Tissot Type XX. Then the conversation turns to a recent influx in watches with meteorite dials, and the team wonders aloud what other interesting materials enterprising brands might decide to make watch dials out of.

On this episode of a Week in Watches we cover a lot of territory. We start in Geneva with the GPHG, taking a look at a handful of this year’s winners, and then head to the UK to go offroad with Bamford and Land Rover. From there we go flying with Massena Lab and Matthey-Tissot, diving with the new Super Squale, and finally to Japan for the new Chronograph 1 Mk 2 by Kurono.This week’s episode is sponsored by Whatnot, a live stream auction app where you can buy and sell unique items.

This week on the podcast, Blake Buettner, Zach Kazan, and Patrick Marlett discuss watches, gaming, a very fancy tourbillon with a Vantablack dial, and, of course, proper grammar. But the main topic for this episode is the GPHG awards, and the very idea of awarding watches at all. Should we really be pitting watches against each other? Is there a better way to recognize watchmaking greatness that we haven’t quite stumbled upon yet? It’s a surprisingly thorny topic and we dive right in on this episode. Did you follow the GPHG awards? Do they matter to you at all?

We start off with a playful collab between Louis Erard and Seconde Seconde with a slightly spooky theme, and then quickly descend to the deepest depths of the ocean with the first titanium Rolex. Next, we get overexcited by the new Anno 42 by Ochs Und Junior, and, finally, we head to the UK to discuss Christopher Ward’s incredible chiming watch, the C1 Bel Canto.

Should watches exist in their own space, or are they in fact just a small part of the broader world of gear? This panel, moderated by Worn & Wound’s Kyle Snarr, digs into the crossovers between watches and everyday carry products. Panelists include: Ryan Coulter of the James Brand; Jon Gaffney of Tornek Rayville; and Kat Shoulders of Worn & Wound.

Doing the wrist check. Telling the story of your latest find. This panel, moderated by RedBar CEO Kathleen McGivney, explores how the love of watches brings people together, and what the future of staying connected—online or in-person—holds. From RedBar to WindUp, the watch community around the globe is formed from all walks of life, and there are a myriad of ways we explore this passion. Whether we’re creating content or memes, sharing wrist shots, or telling stories, there’s one thing we can all agree on: collecting watches is all about connecting people. Panelists include: Blake Malin, co-founder and CEO of Worn & Wound; Sneh Diwan of Diwan By Design; Ben Grullon of Wrist Check Podcast; and Lee Candela (aka @brodinkee) of Wrist Cheese Podcast.

On the latest episode of Time on Screen, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are diving deep into a wormhole on a journey to the heart of the universe. Contact, Robert Zemeckis’s 1997 follow up to Forrest Gump, is on tap this week. It’s a personal favorite among several Worn & Wound team members, and has an inherently time centered plot device (and some surprising connections to watch enthusiasm in general) that are worth discussing. Mostly, though, Contact is a lasting tribute to the ideas of the late Carl Sagan, who is the focus of much of the conversation in this episode. The film follows astronomer Eleanor Arroway, played by Jodie Foster, as she – and the rest of the world – grapple with the discovery of a lifetime: a radio signal from a distant star system, an unmistakable sign of intelligent life. These hypothetical situations were a fascination for Sagan through much of his life, and the film approaches it from a grounded and scientifically realistic perspective, uncommon for a summer blockbuster from a big studio.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 from a little (very little) rest after Windup Watch Fair NYC 2022 for episode 21 of A Week in Watches! This episode contains three stories, eight watches, and one epic movement. We start with a look at the new indie-minded Massena Lab Magraph, then to a rare triple-collab by Rowing Blazers, Eric Wind, and Seiko 5. Lastly, we are summoned to Switzerland by the chiming of a new and incredible movement by Omega.If you enjoyed this episode, please like, rate, and subscribe!

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Blake, Zach, Patrick, and Kat bring you a podcasting first: a live on air bracelet sizing. How did it go? You’ll have to listen to the whole episode to find out, but let’s just say Patrick’s recent acquisition (the unboxing was recorded, another first for the Worn & Wound podcast) inspired a long digression about bracelets, how to size them, and the horror stories that go along with this particularly thankless task. Other topics on this particularly loose episode recorded on the eve of the Windup Watch Fair in New York City include a watch’s ability to resist humidity in the air, and the pros and cons of traveling with more than one watch, a topic we seem to always return to, and one that Kat Shoulders will have more to say about soon in an upcoming Out of Office column.

This week on A Week in Watches, we’re out of the studio for Windup Watch Fair NYC 2022. I apologize for publishing a bit later than usual, but we had a hectic weekend! In this episode, I take you through several watches released at this year’s Windup Watch Fair NYC from a killer new GMT from Nodus to a rugged new military diver from MKII. You’ll also get a peak inside of Windup Watch Fair NYC, which was an absolute blast. There were over 60 brands in attendance, so this only scratches the surface of what was on display.This week’s sponsor is Jack Mason. A Texas-based watch brand, their slogan is “Premium Watches for All Enthusiasts,” which is something we certainly appreciate. Jack Mason’s new Strat-o-Timer GMT marks a turning point for the brand and is one of the first Miyota 9075-powered “true” GMTs on the market.

This week on the podcast, Kat and Zach K. are shamelessly stealing a great idea from our friends over at The Grey NATO (maybe you’ve heard of it). This is our version of the “One Watch” draft, where we choose one watch at various price points that could serve as our only watch if we were to embrace a single watch lifestyle. It’s a fun thought experiment for two people who have way, way too many watches, and a worthwhile exercise in figuring out what you truly value in the watches you choose to own. All credit to TGN for the great idea. Be sure to let us know in the comments or on Instagram what your “One Watch” picks would be. We’d love to hear your selections, and be sure to let us know if there are any other draft ideas we should try out in the future. Today’s episode of the Worn and Wound Podcast is brought to you by the New York Windup Watch Fair. Don’t miss the chance to discover hundreds of incredible watches during the NYC Windup Watch Fair, at the Altman Building – 135 W 18th Street, from Friday, October 21st through Sunday, October 23rd.

On episode 19 of A Week in Watches we take a trip around the world without leaving the studio. We start out in Germany with Nomos, which gave me another opportunity to try to say Glashütte, then we head to France to check out Serica’s latest drop. Afterward, we head to Singapore to see BOLDR’s new GMT, and finally Switzerland with a touch of Japan, by way of the TAG Heuer x Mario Kart chronographs. Next week, we head to Windup Watch Fair NYC, so stay tuned!This week’s sponsor is William Wood Watches. The British watch brand, inspired by the founder’s firefighting grandfather, has launched a new collection of field watches.

The Time on Screen podcast is back! This week, in celebration of the newly released Benrus Series #3061, Zach Kazan and Kyle Snarr are diving deep into Bullitt, the 1968 classic starring Steve McQueen as a San Francisco detective trying to get to the bottom of a mob conspiracy. Bullitt is mostly remembered these days for its incredible car chase sequence through real San Francisco streets, but it’s also an important film in nailing down the iconic style of its star, and that certainly includes the watch that McQueen wears throughout the film. In this episode, Zach and Kyle take you through the movie, exploring what it is about the setting, the action scenes, and the movie star at the center of it all that makes Bullitt special.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.

To kick things off on this week’s podcast, Blake is joined by Worn & Wound co-founder Blake Malin and, making her W&W podcast debut, Nelly Calhoun, Worn & Wound’s events manager. They’re here to give you a preview of all things Windup Watch Fair, which is fast approaching and moving to a new location in New York City. Not only will this Windup see more brands than ever before, but we’ll have dedicated spaces for breakout sessions and panels, a lounge and bar, giveaways, and more!Then, Blake talks to Zach Weiss, Patrick Marlett, and Thomas Calara about some recent new releases, including a Star Trek inspired release from Urwerk, and a Formex that Thomas has been sampling for review. Be warned, everyone is double wristing on this episode, so if you like wrist checks, this is the episode for you. There’s the requisite Last Action Hero talk (Patrick is here, after all) and a digression into the ever expanding world of affordable GMT watches. Also, don’t miss Blake asking Siri about the current time on Mars.

This week on A Week In Watches we’ve got a fairly diverse group of releases. Our first stop is some Seiko Prospex divers made out of titanium, then we head to an Ollech & Wajs with a cool bezel, from there we’re off to space with Urwerk and their new, nerdtastic 120, and finally, we’re back to Germany for some old-school crafts by Benzinger.We’ve got two (house) sponsors this week. The first is Windup Watch Fair NYC! Yup, it’s October, which means that Windup Watch Fair NYC is right around the corner, Oct 21 – 23. This year’s show is going to be the biggest and best yet. We have over 60 brands presenting, panels, a bar, and more. To accommodate this, we’ve moved it to a new locale: the Altman Building at 135 W 18th st. As before, it’s free and open to the public, so bring your family, friends, and your wallet too 😉 – Details can be found at windupwatchfair.comNext up, this week we had an exciting launch in the Windup Watch Shop, the Zodiac Super Sea Wolf GMT Blueberry LE.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan joins Blake and Thomas to talk about one of the most unexpected releases of the year: the Norqain Wild One. Zach was in Switzerland for the launch of the Wild One, which employs a proprietary carbon fiber material called Norteq that makes it incredibly lightweight, robust, and can even be colored. Zach shares his thoughts on the watch and the rollout, and talks about the experience of interviewing the one and only Jean-Claude Biver. Later in this episode, the team chats about what it’s like to turn on non-watch people to this incredibly niche hobby, and the whether we’ve successfully created any new enthusiasts through a strong recommendation. Has this ever happened to you? Be sure to leave a note in the comments if you’ve successfully gotten someone else hooked on watches.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 A Week in Watches we take a look at a few new tool watches that came out. There’s a watch built for Martians by Omega, but you can use it too. Then, Christopher Ward updates the three original watches in their Military collection. Lastly, Mühle Glashütte, builds off of their beloved SAR line with a new watch rendered in my favorite metal, titanium.But first, I go a little more in-depth than usual for this week’s sponsor as it’s a launch of a new series of watches from a brand we run, ADPT. The ADPT (“adapt” – Add Day, Purpose, and Terrain) Series 1 Watches are built to be modern, fun, sports watches that are inspired by the awesome outdoor gear we love. Built by BOLDR Supply Co for ADPT, they are purposeful, but stylish timepieces. Check them out now at ADPTGoods.com

This week on the show, we’ve got Blake, Thomas, Zach and Patrick in the studio to talk about some of the more interesting recent releases to come across our desks. Norqain’s new Wild ONE is at the top of mind, and the gang puts on their materials scientist hats to ponder the pros and cons of carbon fiber, and wonder what this new Norteq material is all about. The team also discusses the latest release from Massena and Habring, which is a gorgeous perpetual calendar chronograph, and in the course of the conversation we learn that at least one member of the crew is actually not into chronographs at all. Can you believe it? To find out who, you’ll have to listen. Also, send us your ideas for how Thomas Calara can test the new Apple Watch (but keep it relatively safe and sane) in the comments below.

We’ve made it to episode 16 of A Week in Watches. That’s four months! A quarter year! Crazy. Anyway, this week we cover the news from Norqain (including a potential interpretation of how the first conversation between Jean Claude Biver and the board at Norqain went), the return of the Vulcain Cricket (with a debate on what sound crickets really make), some new Farers, and a perpetual monopusher chronograph from Habring2 that has a very tangential relationship with medieval dancing plague.

Today, we’re continuing our run of watch spotting in movies in a new series we’re calling Time On Screen. This new Worn & Wound podcast series will focus on the intersection between watches and movies, covering everything from classics, box office hits, and lesser-known titles that we think are worth discussing. Today, it’s all about the watches of The Abyss, James Cameron’s 1989 underwater sci-fi thriller. In the episode, Zach Kazan and our own Kyle Snarr record their thoughts on the film’s watches, Cameron’s filmography, and what makes for good watch casting in films in general. We’re so 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 The Abyss is a solid representation of that ethos.To learn more about Citizen Promaster and explore the collection, head to citizenwatch.com.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.

Today on the podcast, we’re talking about the age old question that has been plaguing all of us: are you a collector, or an enthusiast? Blake wrote about this conundrum in self-identification a few weeks ago, and we thought it would be good fodder for a slightly deeper dive. So enjoy this chat with Blake, Zach Kazan, Kat, and Patrick covering the finer points of what it means to collect versus…enthuse? Let us know in the comments if the collector/enthusiast distinction means anything to you personally, and what category you’d place yourself in.Today’s episode of the Worn and Wound Podcast is brought to you by the New York Windup Watch Fair.

This week’s episode of A Week in Watches starts off with a little catch-up after Geneva Watch Days. We go from the Apple Watch Ultra to the Monta Skyquest and then to Grand Seiko in a quick sweep of releases. Then, we’re off to some newness from Timex x Todd Snyder and Longines, and finally a question from the audience!It’s been a minute since I’ve taken a question from the audience, so I was excited to do so. Though a straightforward question, it let me delve a little into a topic I find exciting, meca-quartz.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Blake and Zach are talking about the just announced Apple Watch Ultra. It’s Apple’s most advanced smartwatch to date (and the largest) but is it a tool watch? It’s a question we’ve seen bandied about in all of the usual places, and we get into it here. Then, it’s off to Switzerland to chat through some of the key releases from Geneva Watch Days, from a dramy MB&F to a much more accessible Doxa.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.

Well, last week I got distracted by a certain dive watch by a certain brand (it was Tudor) and didn’t get to my coverage of Geneva Watch Days 2022. So, this week, I highlight five releases from GWD that were of interest from brands ranging in style and price from Doxa to Frederique Constant to MB&F. Sit back and enjoy a little trip to Geneva.This week’s sponsor is the Windup Watch Shop, which recently added the newest iterations of Seiko’s Save the Ocean dive watches.

It’s a full house today on the Worn & Wound podcast, so brace yourselves for a spirited discussion on the watch that broke the internet last week: the all new Tudor Pelagos 39. Everyone’s got a take on the new, smaller Tudor diver, and we’re no exception. What do you think? Is this a must have dive watch? Will you be buying one? And, be honest: were you pronouncing “Pelagos” correctly before Tudor’s immediately iconic video dropped?We also take a moment to talk about the new Grönefeld 1969 Delta Works, the first sports watch from the independent brand out of the Netherlands. And yes, it’s a point of great pride for all involved that to our knowledge we’re the only podcast to draw a tenuous connection between the Delta Works and the forgotten classic that is Last Action Hero. It will all (sort of) make sense when you listen.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 I try and fail to cover some Geneva Watch Days highlights. You see, right in the middle of everything, Tudor had to go and release the Pelagos 39. Not just a variation of an existing watch, the Pelagos 39 is likely to become the new “go-to” model by the brand. I go over where the Pelagos came from and what makes this new model different.And then… I still fail to talk about Geneva Watch Days because Fratello teamed up with Minase to make a new collaboration with the brand using a case that was previously only for sale in Japan. It’s rad, and goes on sale soon, so I didn’t want to miss it.As for Geneva Watch Days? I guess I’ll get there next week.This week’s episode is brought to you by the Labor Day Sale currently going on at the Windup Watch Shop.

Today on the podcast, Blake Buettner, Zach Weiss, Zach Kazan, and Patrick Marlett are in studio to discuss a question that's come up a lot recently: what's with all these "pro" watches? Did it start with the Speedmaster? Should we consider our own professions before committing to buy something like a Black Bay Pro, or the new TAG Heuer Aquaracer GMT with a similar designation? What's in a name, anyway? Is it all just clever marketing or does a "Pro" watch have a meaningful functional advantage? We tackle the tough questions on this week's episode.

On this week’s episode of A Week in Watches we check out two new watches that are built for pros.
