    June Watch News: Andy's Japan Watch Hunting & Massive New Microbrand Collaborations

    After a quick break, Andy and Felix are back behind the microphones! We kick things off with a deep dive into Andy's incredibly watch-heavy trip to Japan. From heavy-hitting independent watchmaking like Naoya Hida and Zenith, to the brilliant microbrands of Kurono Tokyo and Kuoe Kyoto, we cover the insane Japanese vintage scene and why Tokyo remains a mecca for watch collectors. 🇯🇵✈️ Meanwhile, Felix catches Andy up on what he missed back home, including the spectacular premiere of the NGV's Cartier exhibition. It's also been a massive month for watch news and new releases. We break down the newest pieces from Chopard, the wild Ming x J.N. Shapiro American-Malaysian collaboration, and TAG Heuer's jaw-dropping, piston-packing Monaco Speed 12. Finally, we pause to pay tribute to an absolute giant of the watch industry, the late Philippe Stern of Patek Philippe, who passed away this June. This week's episode is supported by Raymond Weil. Check out the new A.R.T. collection here, and find out what we think about it in this week's episode. Notes: Zenith X Naoya Hida (1:10) Kurano Tokyo (6:00) Kuoe Kyoto (8:30) Raymond Weil A.R.T.

    All the Highlights of Watches & Wonders 2026, feat. Cartier, Rolex and more

    From the shores of Lake Geneva, Andy and Felix give their thoughts on all the highlights of Watches & Wonders 2026. From A. Lange & Söhne to Zenith and everything in between, we chat about why space is cool, and what it feels like to bicep curl 8kg of ethical gold, as well as why the subdial placement on the Santos de Cartier Chronograph is so good.   Of course, we also tackle our favourite models, and some we think missed the mark. Patek Philippe stood out, as did Cartier and IWC's out-of-this-world Venturer Vertical Drive. But we also talk about the behind-the-scenes things that make Watches & Wonders great, like the lack of AI slop and secret pizzerias.   Show Notes   Andy's visit to the Chopard Manufacture (1:52) Felix's thoughts on Patek Philippe (3:35) The revamped Santos de Cartier Chronograph (7:00) Alpine Eagle XPS (13:43) Vacheron Constantin Overseas Cardinal Points (14:20) Our thoughts on Rolex in 2026 (15:35) The Ulysse Nardin SuperFreak (20:00) Our thoughts on IWC's 2026 collection (23:19) The Tudor Royal (28:00) The JLC Master Control (34:45) The Chanel J12 Game (37:05) 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.

    Cartier 2026 Deep Dive: Roadster Revival, Crash Squelette & Off-Catalogue Secrets (Watches & Wonders)

    Recorded live and fresh from Geneva, we're taking a look at Cartier's new releases for 2026. After a decade in the archives, Cartier has officially resurrected the Roadster, and we have thoughts. In this episode, we're breaking down the entire Cartier 2026 lineup - from the Y2K nostalgia of the new Roadster Collection to the "liquid gold" engineering of the Santos-Dumont mesh bracelet. Is the new, streamlined Roadster profile a win for modern wearability, or do we miss the "chunkiness" of the 2002 original? We're also diving into the 10th Anniversary of Cartier Privé, exploring the mind-bending Crash Squelette, and discussing why the Tortue moving into the core collection is the sleeper hit of the year. Plus, we tackle the "quiet luxury" trend of Cartier's off-catalogue "Ghost Dial" releases and the brand's aggressive move toward precious metals. Grab a coffee - or a glass of champagne - it's time for the Cartier Deep Dive. Notes: The Roadster Revival: Everything you need to know about the new integrated rivets and that "headlight" date window. (02:15) Santos de Cartier Chronograph: revamped and ready to party - spoiler, it feels good on the wrist (09:30) "Liquid Gold" Santos-Dumont: Why the 15-row mesh bracelet is being called the "Watch of the Show." (12:40) The Tortue: enters the core collection (17:10) The Baignoire Update: Our take on the "Clou de Paris" bangle and the seamless dial aesthetic, AND the new 'larger size'. (21:30) Privé 10th Anniversary: The Tortue Monopoussoir vs. the Crash Squelette—which one takes the crown? (24:30) The "Ghost" Strategy: Why Cartier is leaning into off-catalogue releases and full gold everything.
