104: How do you deal with scratches and dings on your watch?
In today's episode we answer a question from @poppingcrowns about scratches on watches. Do scratches bother you? Do they make you happy? Do you polish them out or leave them? Is there a difference between cool scratches and boring scratches?
Unsurprisingly Lydia and Vu have slightly different takes.

103: How do you determine what a watch is worth to you?
In today's episode we discuss the very personal and individual thoughts that go behind how we value a watch. What makes it "worth" the money? What does a watch need to have in order for you to be willing to pay for it?

102: Should quartz still be considered inferior to mechanical watches?
In today's episode we discuss quartz watches. Since Lydia's recent purchase of her quartz powered Royal Oak she had some realizations!
Here's the interesting article about the quartz crisis story perhaps not being all that we've been told:

101: Wearing watches upside down? New trend or just a few mistakes?
In this episode we discuss a new potential trend of wearing watches upside down on the wrist, so to the wearer it's upside down but to the external viewer or the photographer they are right side up. Lydia shows that there are limits to her loosey goosey ways!
Partly inspired by this article:
