    From the Ground at Watches & Wonders 2025

Plus, a timely reminder that it’s not about the watches but rather the friends we made along the way.  Find out more about Cartier’s 2025 collection at cartier.com 1:12 Cartier Tank LC 9:16 The Rolex Land-Dweller 11:41 Cheryl on the new Rolex at Revolution 14:14 Zenith G.F.J. 15:00 Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso on Milanese bracelet 15:50 TAG Heuer beads of rice bracelet 17:57 Tudor Black Bay 68 18:15 IWC Pilot’s Chronograph APXGP 19:06 Tudor Pelagos Ultra 21:19 Hermès Arceau Rocabar de Rire 22:30 Cartier Tank à Guichets 22:40 Parmigiani Fleurier 23:30 Baume & Mercier Clifton 24:24 Nomos Club Sport neomatik Worldtimer 28:30 Grand Seiko SLGB003 UFA 30:40 TAG Heuer Formula 1 Solargraph  Show Notes: https://www.otpodcast.com.au/show-notes OT: Discord - https://discord.com/invite/X3Vvc9z7aV How to follow us: https://www.instagram.com/ot.podcast https://www.facebook.com/otpodcastau https://instagram.com/andygreenlive https://instagram.com/fkscholz Send us an email: otthepodcast@gmail.com If you liked our podcast - please remember to like/share and subscribe.

  2. All the Highlights from Cartier at Watches & Wonders 2025

    3 APR

    All the Highlights from Cartier at Watches & Wonders 2025

    There’s a handful of brands that people clamour to see as soon as the curtain is lifted on Watches & Wonders, and Cartier is most definitely one of those brands. We recorded this episode inside the Cartier booth on the first day of the fair after getting up close and personal with all the key releases. We talk about all the major releases, including the outstanding Cartier Privé Cartier Privé Tank à Guichets, the new, larger Tank LC, the dazzling new takes on the Cartier Panthère, as well as other jewellery pieces like the Tressage and the Panthère Bangle. Not to spoil things, but 2025 is a good year for Cartier.  Find out more about Cartier’s 2025 collection at cartier.com 2:35 Cartier Privé Tank à Guichets  07:12 Cartier Tank LC 9:48 Panthère de Cartier 12:10 Panthère Bangle 13:49 Cartier Tressage Show Notes: https://www.otpodcast.com.au/show-notes OT: Discord - https://discord.com/invite/X3Vvc9z7aV How to follow us: https://www.instagram.com/ot.podcast https://www.facebook.com/otpodcastau https://instagram.com/andygreenlive https://instagram.com/fkscholz   Send us an email: otthepodcast@gmail.com If you liked our podcast - please remember to like/share and subscribe.

    The One Where We Predict Watches & Wonders 2025

    Yes, we had to do it. Hopped up on rumour and speculation, Andy and Felix dive into the exciting world of baseless watch predictions and shamelessly speculate on what Rolex, Patek Philippe, Cartier and their pals are going to unveil in Geneva in just a few day's time. On top of that, we ponder the meta trends that we're going to see emerge in the industry, including "less value for the same money" and "more restraint with flashes of insanity".

    Tony Traina on his newsletter Unpolished and watch pet peeves

    Everyone’s favourite Chicago-based watch newsletter publisher is back for his second (or third?) chat with OT:, and as is now customary, we’ve caught at something of an interstitial moment. Traina left Hodinkee late last year and has dived head first into his newsletter, Unpolished (née Rescapement). We talk to Tony about the premise and pitch of his newsletter and (inevitably) the state of watch media in 2025. We also talk about industry pet peeves, press trip weirdness and why glazing billionaires is never a good idea.

  5. Kenneth Lam, founder of Arken Watch Company

    Kenneth Lam, founder of Arken Watch Company

    Arken Watch Company was born (like so many creative projects), in the middle of a lockdown. Kenneth Lam, always interested in modding Seiko’s and the like, decided to design his own watch. The result was the Arken Instrumentum, a limited release followed a few years later by the clever travel timer that is the Alterum. Arken aims to create genre-free titanium tool watches with unique and practical functions — and it’s safe to say the young brand is delivering on that mission. We talked to Ken about the future of the brand, how to engage with the community and preferred emoji use.   Andy’s take on the Time Piece Gentleman (2:40) Interview with Kenneth Lam (10:07) Arken Watch Company Arken on Instagram The GP Chronohawk Greggs   Show Notes: https://www.otpodcast.com.au/show-notes OT: Discord - https://discord.com/invite/X3Vvc9z7aV   How to follow us: https://www.instagram.com/ot.podcast https://www.facebook.com/otpodcastau https://instagram.com/andygreenlive https://instagram.com/fkscholz   Send us an email: otthepodcast@gmail.com If you liked our podcast - please remember to like/share and subscribe.

  6. Zoë Abelson, founder of Graal Watch on the watch market and finding grails for other people

    Zoë Abelson, founder of Graal Watch on the watch market and finding grails for other people

    This week, we've got the final file from Felix's Hong Kong adventure, and we've undoubtedly saved the best til last. Zoë Abelson, better known on Instagram as @watchgirloffduty has built a life and a career hunting down rare timepieces. These days that business has coalesced into Graal Watch, which makes her the perfect person to find that obscure reference. We chat with Zoë about the pros and cons of hunting other people's grails and explore the ambiguities implicit in the watch dealers' role as tastemakers, as well as what those tastes are looking like today: pro tip — smaller watches are where it's at. Before all that, Andy and Felix tackle the thorny issue of giving Andy's dad a watch. Let us know in the comments what you think that watch was.  Interview with Zoe Abelson (11:56) Graal Watch Zoe Abelson on Instagram Zoë Abelson at HF.10’s ‘Whose Birkin is it Anyway’ panel Like watches?

    Fiona Krüger on watch design and being inspired by pearls

    Today’s guest is Fiona Krüger, a fine artist and watch designer who’s independent in the truest sense of the word. Perhaps best known for her timepieces shaped like skulls and defined by fractures and imperfection, Krüger is a watchmaker who finds her own path. Felix caught up with Krüger in Hong Kong as part of Horology Forum 10, where they chatted about design integrity, the tricky nature of luxury and why it isn’t always the best idea to have a business plan when starting out. They also chat about the Face of Tasaki, a watch Fiona Krüger has made with a Japanese pearl manufacturer and one of the coolest releases of the last year. Before that, Andy and Felix gaze into Ariel Adams’ crystal ball and speculate about what 2025 will look like for the watch industry.  The Watch Vault (not a sponsor) Ariel Adams Five Predictions for the Watch Industry Fiona Kruger Fiona Krüger on Instagram The Face of Tasaki Like watches?

  8. Bremont CEO Davide Cerrato on the brand’s evolving identity

    Bremont CEO Davide Cerrato on the brand’s evolving identity

    Bremont CEO Davide Cerrato has been in the role for a little over a year at this point, and it’s safe to say that 2024 has been a rollercoaster. The brand, rooted in British identity and aviation, unveiled a brand new collection, logo and strategy at its Watches & Wonders debut and has, in the months since, been experiencing the ups and downs of public opinion. We caught up with Davide a few weeks before Christmas and found the irrepressible anglophile reflective about the year that was for Bremont, but more than that, excited about what the future holds.  This episode has been sponsored by Bremont. Check them out at bremont.com or, if you’re in Melbourne, at the Bremont Boutique at 292 Collins St.  Felix is, in fact, talking about the Serica Parade (8:53) The pink-dialled Terra Nova we’ve got the hots for (10:45) Davide Cerrato chat (13:00) Bremont Watches Bremont Watches on Instagram Like watches?
