0 to 60 radio Matt Riddel

Episode 44 drops, and the boys get into it...and some light tech difficulties, but you wouldn’t know if we didn’t tell you!

David gives a 1-week review of his new Tudor Pelagos, which sparks some discussion about a Black Bay Chrono Panda Dial and what the Tudor market is looking like today.

This leads Matt and David to talk about potential negotiation tactics with new watches and cars. Likely wishful thinking, or maybe not as the world’s supplies no longer seem as abysmal and consumers may have some bartering power again.

They discover that David’s previously unrevealed tastes are so bad when it comes to some car characteristics, that he could metaphorically bite into a raw white onion and eat it like a damn apple!

Finally, the Depreciator segment returns with a look at grossly depreciated luxury SUVs.  Will Matt win again or can Hirji even the playing field?

Enjoy!

Episode 43 kicks off with the boys talking about ”the Un-publishables”....a proposed segment where they release their previously recorded stuff in an effort to completely abandon their audience.  Fortunately, this is a short-lived thought.

Wanting to celebrate Women more on the show, Matt and David each provide a profile of women pioneers in both Motorsports and Watchmaking. First up, Matt takes you through an understanding of Susie Wolff’s career - from growing up in a Motorcycle dealership in Oban, to spearheading the biggest shift in Formula 1 when it comes to breaking gender-stereotypes.  Then, David walks through the impact that Women have had in watchmaking for decades - primarily behind the scenes - and now in the spotlight.  From the young women whom hand assembled timepieces, to those who are now thought leaders in horology and watch design.

A new segment, The Depreciator starts with the boys each picking a Luxury 4 door sedan with the greatest depreciation in less than 12 years.

Enjoy!

Well....get a load of this!  In this week’s episode, Matt takes a swing and provides a brief understanding of the 911 Turbo’s inception and a look at the variations before they became liquid-cooled.  The guys recap a visit to the Tudor boutique in Vancouver and David’s latest acquisition...including its current status.

Matt starts a new segment, The Depreciator, where the boys look for the greatest depreciation in cars and watches over a loosely suggested time...or something like that. Starting with a 2017 Rolls Royce Wraith Black Badge that recently sold on BaT.

Enjoy!

In episode 41, the boys are live in Vancouver and have a lot to talk about!

First up, David profiles a new Bvlgari Octo Finnissimo - now available as a Skeleton case in Titanium.  Could this be a contender against a AP Royal Oak? Cars, Cars, and more cars....eventually.  Matt and David talk about profiling more brands and price points for cars in the future.  Then, Matt gets into the weeds on his new business venture and some thoughts on how the Automobile can be a means to give back to the community. Finally, a look at the 996/997 listings on FB Marketplace to see what ”driver grade” cars are available as well as a look at a 2-owner 1997 Bentley Turbo R listed for just $25K CAD.

Enjoy!

Back for episode 40, the boys reconvene over a couple of beers and get right into a quietly reported story about VW group cars being held in North American ports.  Using embargoed parts to make up other parts is frowned upon....allegedly.  This was like winding up the organ to get them talking about Dealership woes and what sets good dealers apart from bad ones.

Then, Matt brings up a recent patent filed by Rolex for a new ceramic Black/Red bezel, hinting at a new ”Coke” GMT.  Furthermore, they discuss the findings that making a Blue bezel with the newer ceramic seems impossible at the moment, thus rendering a ”Batman” or ”Pepsi” GMT even more sought after.

A modern classic BMW 1M gets showcased, currently listed on Bring-a-Trailer.  And the boys check out a new Sheffield watch/watch bundle available in 4 classic Porsche colours, before taking a solid look at the new Rolls Royce Spectre. A MASSIVE lux coupe fitting of its silk-like EV drivetrain.

Enjoy!

Crew show!! Back at it, Matt and David dive immediately into the flurry of F1-related news and memes in the last week - Hamilton to Ferrari, Haas ousts Gunther, Horner investigation, etc.  This leads to discussing a new Tudor BB Ceramic shown off by Daniel Riccardo this week and reaffirms the boy’s Tudor love.

Matt asks: what could Rolex release that would be reflective of heritage and hype to make an impact in 2024?  Catipolting the conversation to Zenith and the ties between these two brands with the always coveted Daytona.

Then, Matt drops that he quit his job this week to pursue a new venture in the auto industry before the boys revisit the discussion of the new Macan EV and clarify a couple of items from their previous episode.

Enjoy!
