Track & Field Watches

Hashtag Born to Dare-ish

The guys catch up after some travel and time spent together celebrating Felix's graduation. Speaking of which, Marc discusses passing along a watch to celebrate the milestone. Aaron reports back from New York City, where the trip somehow resulted in yet another field watch joining the collection (but it's not black!). In this episode's watch roundup, Marc brings up several recent releases that caught his eye, including Tudor's bright yellow Black Bay Chrono, the preppy J.Crew × Timex collaboration, the unexpected Baltic × SpaceOne partnership, and Oris's tribute to baseball legend Lou Gehrig. A conversation about travel, milestones, family, and the memories—and watches—that make them meaningful.

Track & Field Watches

Felix joins Marc and Aaron for a rare three-person episode as graduation season finally comes into view. What starts with a wrist check quickly turns into a field watch conversation after Felix swaps watches to wear the "neo-vintage" Hamilton field watch Marc gave him. The guys talk Hamilton, Benrus, Evora Watches, and the possibility that Aaron’s field watch journey still isn’t complete despite recently acquiring the Vertex M36. There’s also a deeper dive into the new Tudor Monarch and Royal releases, some reflection on senior year winding down, and the realization that for Felix, high school is basically over. All that’s left is one more track meet. The extended family will all be together soon to celebrate graduation, making this one feel a little more personal than usual.

Watches and Wandering Denver

Aaron’s in Denver for a quick trip, which turns into exactly what you’d expect. A little wandering, a little watch talk, and a chance to catch up in person. They get into the watches that stood out from Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026, including one pick from Aaron that no one saw coming. Marc, unsurprisingly, keeps circling back to Tudor and the feeling that their 100th year can’t possibly end with just what we’ve seen so far. Aaron also brings a new addition to the table, the Vertex M36, and talks through what had to go to make room. Watches, wishful thinking, and a little bit of Denver.

OraOrea: A Conversation with Zach Weiss

Bonus Episode: Marcos and Aaron sit down with Zach Weiss, cofounder of Worn & Wound and Windup Watch Fair, to talk about his new venture, OraOrea.

This Ending is SUS

This could be the season finale. It’s been one year since Marcos and Aaron started this podcast. They’ve been busy working on another project together, which has made it tough to record, but they found a little time to catch up and reflect on the past year. The conversation starts with a comparison between Aaron’s King Seiko and Grand Seiko. Which one is dressier and which one is arguably the finer watch? Interestingly, those are not the same watch. They also talk about a few watches that have caught their attention lately: a sub-40mm white Orient Mako and the Timor Dirty Dozen for Marc, and a Vertex Dirty Dozen and a Seiko SUS for Aaron. Marc also realizes that in the 90s, he was probably the exact target audience for the Seiko SUS. They wrap up by talking about a new release they both really like, the Baltic Heures du Monde Worldtimer, and reflect a bit on the next season, which will hopefully not include such a long gap between recordings. Not taking a break.
