This week I got together with Alan, a watch collector who doesn't hang around on forums, or Instagram, and has been adding horological goodies to his stash for over 20 years, to hang out and talk watches.

Starting out with all of Alan's watches laid out on a table, we spent four hours talking through what made sense to share, what made a good story, and what you, the listener would find most interesting to hear about.

And after much negotiation we got down to the big 6 - a set of watches Alan would walk out the door with if his house were on fire. Probably.



Enjoy.

There was so much stuff we didn’t cover... so many watches... some (more) insanely rare stuf... there could be a part 2 at some point.

Good to be back! Just taking things much easier. 😉

Wow, that probably means he isn't as jaded and tired of the repetitiveness of the internet and social media.
