A Week in Watches Ep. 17: A Speedmaster for Beyond the Moon Oct 02, 2022

Show notes

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

The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep 263: New September Releases from Norqain and Habring2 Sep 28, 2022

Show notes

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.

A Week in Watches: Ep 16 Do Crickets Even Buzz? Sep 25, 2022

Show notes

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. Yeah, it was quite a good week in watch news, so check that out below.

This week’s sponsor is the Windup Watch Shop, where you can find watches from over 20 brands from Seiko to Oris. There are also straps, cases, tools, clocks, EDC, and more! Check that all out at WindupWatchShop.com

Time on Screen: The Watches of The Abyss Sep 23, 2022

Show notes

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.

The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep 262: Enthusiast or Collector? The Eternal Debate Sep 21, 2022

Show notes

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. 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.

A Week in Watches: Ep 15 Ultra Apples + Black and White Cookies Sep 18, 2022

Show notes

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. If you have any questions you’d like covered on A Week in Watches, please leave them in the comments below, on youtube, or shoot us an email at info@wornandwound.com!

Actually, there is one more quick segment… we say goodbye to Watchville.

This week’s sponsor is the Worn & Wound Podcast. If you’re looking to experience enthusiasm for watches, the Worn & Wound editorial team talks news, opinions, hot takes, and more weekly on the pod. Always casual, and approachable, it’s a good time. Check that out anywhere you find podcasts.

The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep 261: The Apple Watch Ultra, and Some Favorites from Geneva Watch Days Sep 14, 2022

Show notes

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.

A Week In Watches: Ep 14 Geneva Watch Daze 2022 Sep 11, 2022

Show notes

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. Based on iconic divers from Seiko’s archives, this trilogy has been updated with their newest 6R automatic movements, and gorgeous textured dials inspired by ice. Check them out and more and WindupWatchShop.com

The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep 260: Diving into the new Tudor Pelagos 39, Including Your Official Pronunciation Guide Sep 07, 2022

Show notes

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.

A Week in Watches: Ep 13 Tudor Crashes Geneva Watch Days Sep 04, 2022

Show notes

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. Get up to 15% off select watches, straps, accessories, EDC, and more through 9/7/22. Head to Windupwatchshop.com to check that out and get yourself something nice.
