Spirit of Time Podcast Matt and Gregg

Gregg sits down with Lōcī Watch Company’s Trip Henderson over tacos and beers to discuss the new brand and the release of the Pacific Coast Highway line. Trip’s background in military service and disaster relief, as well his desire to give back, drive the social responsibility that is baked into the brand’s DNA. That’s important stuff, but what about the watches? Trip shares the inspiration behind the lineup, what it’s like to design a brand from the ground up and the show stopping dials. As Philly natives would do, there’s some banter about the hometown too. Hope you enjoy.

Gregg is back! Matt is buzzed! Lessss gooooo!! In this episode we have a catch-up chinwag over the past week of Watches and Wonders. Beer flows and thoughts are shared on the topic of the latest watches from Zenith, Tudor, Rolex and Bremont. Talking of which... well, Matt is a well-known fan of the British brand, and he has thoughts. Check it out and as always, thanks for listening.

Mick Jagger, Liam Gallagher, David Lee Roth, Jeremy Clarkson, and... Mike Pearson? In this episode we are joined by Mike Pearson, the guy who is poised to take British watch brand Christopher Ward to the next level in North America. Mike has been an absolute legend in the enthusiast community for ages, having worked to establish or reinvigorate several big brands in the USA. Mike has been a friend for over a decade, and it's an absolute treat to finally have him on the pod to chat about Land Rovers, football, relaxation, and watches. Thanks for listening!

Nick from DC Vintage joins Matt for double duty as guest and cohost. Nick has been on with us before, and it's interesting to reflect on the changes in the vintage Seiko landscape over the past 2 years; the Pogue is still cool, but the latest hotness is definitely the MACV/SOG aesthetic of the Vietnam-era field watches worn by the recon teams of the Studies and Observation Group. Nick also gives us the 411 on his own line of military inspired watches- the Sycamore "Wolf" and "Hunter". As always, this conversation wanders a bit... in a good way. CHeck it out!

Matt is joined by "Fratello On Air" cohost Balazs Ferenczi to catch up over a quick chat on the new white dial Omega Speedmaster Professional. This one is a quick and easy listen; stay all the way through to hear Balazs roast Matt over his very non-traditional cooking! lol and thanks for listening.

We are back! This time, we have more Formex content, as we share detailed thoughts on our extended time with both the Reef and Field watches. Matt is slowly coming to the conclusion that Formex is maybe the most tech-forward small brand around. Also, Gregg is on this one and he gives us the 411 on his on-again-off-again appearances. Thanks for listening!
