The Worn & Wound Podcast

Editor’s Note: we had some audio issues on this recording and apologize for the rough patches.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, it’s once again time to answer your questions submitted through Instagram and our Worn & Wound+ Slack channel. Zach Kazan is joined by Garrett Jones and Zach Weiss to talk about the usual wide ranging topics of interest to our listeners and readers. Among them: managing our growing collections, the state of Omega, our favorite types of cheese for sandwiches, milestone watches we’d never sell, and our favorite movies of the year so far. There are, as always, plenty of digressions along the way, including a dive into Garrett’s energy drink habit, and an update on OraOrea.

We’ll do another Q&A episode in about a month!

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Garrett Jones, Worn & Wound’s Lead Photographer, joins Zach to discuss something many of us have quietly (and sometimes loudly) wondered about: how do I know when it’s time to upgrade my camera? And what about all of our other gear? How do we know when we’re just justifying a gear purchase in the flimsiest way, versus timing an upgrade strategically? Zach and Garrett get into the weeds on how they think about upgrading cameras, EDC gear, and even watches. 

Before that, Garrett updates us on his recent excursion with Tudor and the Flying Bulls, and once in a lifetime aviation experience over Manhattan.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are joined by Georgia Benjamin, who by day works in design at Adobe, but by night (and probably all around the clock, frankly) has become quite a force in the watch world. By the numbers, she is among the most followed female watch personalities on social media, and has become a fixture in the broader enthusiast and collecting community. Georgia talks to us about what drew her to watches, how her career at Adobe informs her interest in watches, the growing influence of women in the watch enthusiast space, and why degendering watches is so important in the watch space.

Just as a reminder, the Windup Watch Fair in Chicago will be happening this weekend, July 10-12 at Morgan MFG at 401 N Morgan Street. As always, it’s free and open to the public!

This week on Time on Screen, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders explore High Fidelity, the cult hit starring John Cusack as a lovelorn record store owner from 2000. Why High Fidelity? Two reasons. First, it’s set in Chicago, and ahead of our Windup Watch Fair in the Windy City, we wanted to check out a Chicago set film. Second, this movie is truly about an entire enthusiast culture. There are more than a few similarities between the music obsessives in this film and watch enthusiasts we all experience on a daily basis. It’s impossible to watch High Fidelity as a watch person and not think about the person in your collecting circle who most reminds you of Jack Black’s character. 

We hope to see you in Chicago in just a matter of days for Windup! Let us know in the comments what other Chicago set movies we could have considered, and if you can think of other films about niche enthusiast communities.
