Reviewing 6 Of Our Own Watches With Ben And James
May 30, 2024 16:55 - 52 minutes - 48.3 MBIn this week's episode, I'm running the three-man weave with Ben and James. I gave the guys a bit of homework before we recorded.

Talking about – and reviewing – watches that we've recently acquired. I thought it was a pretty good idea (nice, Ben!), so I called him up and said "Let's do it on the pod!"

Surveying The Field With The New Tudor Ranger
July 17, 2022 12:00 - 44 minutes - 40.7 MBThis week, I've rounded up Jack and Mark Kauzlarich for an in-depth chat about the new Tudor Ranger. Mark covered the launch of this latest sports model from Tudor for HODINKEE, Jack remains an owner of the preceding 79910 Ranger, and I also got a chance to see and photograph the new model on the day it was released, so all we had to do was plug in some microphones. From Mark's experience at a significant in-person watch launch to our combined thoughts on the spec, pricing, and market place...

July 10, 2022 12:00 - 33 minutes - 46.4 MBLately, it seems that the offered length of power reserves has become a hot-button topic in watch-related discourse – but what do you need all those hours for? Are ~38 hours really not enough, especially in a casual or everyday sports watch? I never give total power reserve that much of a concern when it comes to divers and the like, but it's clear that the spec is of growing interest among watch enthusiasts. I asked Jack and Danny to plug in their mics and help me talk over this novel need...
Consistency Vs. Variety In Watch Design (Rolex, Omega, and MB&F)
July 03, 2022 12:00 - 43 minutes - 59.3 MBSome watch brands never seem to change, while others are constantly trying to re-invent what they do. That's the topic for this episode of HODINKEE Radio and I asked Jack, Danny, and Cole to weigh in with their perspectives on the concept of consistency vs. variety in watch design. As you can imagine, it's another loose and chatty episode that dips into the "Rolex method", brands that aren't afraid to break the mold, how many bands Greenday has actually been, and a whole bunch more. Thanks...
