Welcome to the Scottish Watches Podcast Episode 703!
Vishal’s watch world is never dull. In this catch-up, the head of Spinnaker, AVI-8, and Nubeo shares how his family’s 40-year watchmaking legacy evolved into a multi-brand powerhouse producing everything from serious tool watches to quirky, IP-driven collaborations that collectors want to wear.
We hear the full story behind licensing deals with major players like Nickelodeon, Peanuts, Paramount, and Atari, plus the creative risks and design decisions that keep each release fresh and relevant. Vishal also opens up about the realities of manufacturing under one roof, and the thrill of creating watches that deliver high design at accessible prices.
We preview a bunch of unreleased pieces. And for the Scottish Watches faithful, there’s an exclusive first look at our newest joint project with Spinnaker—a follow-up to Braveheart and Nessie!
