• Ep 423: Is The Watch Industry Out Of Ideas?

  This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan welcomes Zach Weiss and Liam O’Donnell to the podcast to discuss a topic we’ve been thinking about privately for a while and have heard grumblings about elsewhere. Today we’re asking a big question: is the watch industry out of ideas? We’ve all felt it in one way or another. There’s a sense among certain enthusiasts that brands are repeating themselves, churning out conservative products that are proven sellers at the expense of innovating. But is that an insidery point of view? Maybe “innovation” isn’t exactly what this centuries old industry is really about? We chat about how some brands play it safe, constantly trying to recapture the past (and why that’s appealing to a lot of us) and how others are a little more daring, and how that impacts the entire industry. To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

• Ep. 422: Collection Updates with Griffin Bartsch

  This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach welcomes Griffin Bartsch back to the Worn & Wound podcast for a new entry in our Collection Update series. Griffin picked up an IWC Mark XX earlier this year, and in this conversation he explains why that was the right watch for him at this particular moment and how he’s been living with it over the past several months as a daily driver. And Zach picked up a new watch from Typsim, the Seattle based indie known for their unique lume compound and true gilt dials. The Guide XLH, the watch Zach couldn’t resist at Windup, has a funky look to it that’s just a little strange, which kind of fits in exactly with what he’s been interested in lately. Before Griffin and Zach chat about their new watches, they spend a bit of time recapping the Windup Watch Fair in New York City, the watches they enjoyed from the show, and, yes, the lines to get in the door. Be sure to check back here soon for more from the New York City edition of Windup, including videos of all the panels from Windup weekend.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

• Ep 419: We Pick Alternatives To The Rolex Sub & Cartier Tank

  This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan welcomes Garrett Jones and Ricardo Sime to the show to talk about potential alternatives to some of the most popular luxury watches. This idea, over the years, has proven to be one of the central questions and debates among watch enthusiasts. If you started your watch journey on the forums before Instagram was the central hub of the watch community, you no doubt came across countless threads asking for advice on alternatives to the most iconic (and often expensive) luxury watches. We look at two watches, the Rolex Submariner and the Cartier Tank, and come up with a handful of alternatives for each. We also discuss the merits of thinking about collecting in this way, and if an alternative can ever really scratch the itch for the “real” thing. We’d love to know your thoughts. Have you ever picked up one watch as an alternative to another? What do you think of our picks as substitutes for the Tank and Submariner? Let us know in the comments or find us on Instagram and let us know. To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.
