Married To Watches

Ep. 20 Three Watch Collection

If you had to start your watch collection from scratch with a budget of 15k what would you buy? Annette and Mark create a personal three watch collection with this healthy budget. The only rules are one vintage watch and you have to be able to buy thew watch in the US easily. Listen to see what they pick and see who you think did a better job.

EP.19 Rolex Therapy

Like a couple on TV sitting down in front of a therapist forced to say something nice about the other person, Annette and Mark sit down and say something nice about Rolex. While Rolex dominates the luxury watch industry and has earned millions of fans both inside and outside collecting communities it has also found more than a few detractors. We have traditionally been critical of the crown, but maybe a sit down on the fictional hodological therapy couch can change our opinion.

Ep. 18 Watches That Disappointed or Surprised Us

We have been lucky to see a large number of watches and a few have either surprised us by how much better they were in person or disappointed when put on the wrist. On this episode we list a few from both sides of the expectations game from Nomos, Omega, Moser, Oris, Maurice Lacroix and others.

EP.17 Don't Call It An Homage

An errant comment from an anonymous internet troll about the new Christopher Ward Sealander has hit a nerve with Annette. The idea of calling the Sealander an homage to the Rolex Oyster Perpetual launched Annette into rant mode and uses this week's podcast to air her grievances.  Sometimes we all need to yell into the void and we are sure many watch enthusiasts share our opinions on watch design, internet trolls, and a general appreciation for what Christopher Ward and the team over in England has been able to pull off in recent years.

We give our own opinion on the Swatch collaborations and some thoughts on how good and bad this latest collaboration of plastic timekeeping.
