    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.

    Andy's Watches explains why Russell Crowe sent him a watch

    If you've ever thought OT: needed more Andy, this is the episode for you. Today, we're joined by Andy B, the man behind Andy's Watches, famous for rating watch collections without permission. Having said that, he's even more famous for his internet friendship with the one and only Russell Crowe —in fact, we think it's fair to say that Andy can take the credit for Rusty's 'secret' TikTok pivoting to full-on watch content, something which we're all eternally grateful for.  Andy tells us the full Russell Crowe watch saga — plus he rates our watches (without our permission).

    All about A. Lange & Söhne (live from their new boutique)

    This week, we have a very special offsite broadcast from the home of German watchmaking in Sydney — the brand new A. Lange & Söhne boutique at 129 King Street. After touring the spacious three-story boutique, Andy and Felix sit down to talk about all things A. Lange & Söhne, from the brand's storied history to its second start in the 1990s, as well as some of the watches that have earned it 'Holy Trinity' status with so many watch lovers. On top of that, Andy gets to meet his white whale, better known as Odysseus, for the first time ever. Thanks to A. Lange & Söhne for supporting the podcast and sponsoring this episode. The A. Lange & Söhne Sydney Boutique Snaps from the boutique Andy rates ALS Hands-on for the first time with the Odysseus 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.

    Ming Watches Founder on Evolving and Imposter Syndrome

    Ming Thein, co-founder of the boundary-pushing Ming Watches, is always full of surprises, and this conversation, recorded at Dubai Watch Week, is no exception. We talk about the incredible titanium Polymesh bracelet, how Ming is adapting to being part of the 'old guard' of indies, and how to overcome imposter syndrome.  On top of that, we get some cryptic clues as to what 2026 might have in store. But before that, Felix and Andy debrief on the latest releases from Audemars Piguet, and Andy explores the concept of the 'Ozempic' wrist.  All the latest from Audemars Piguet (1:26) A.

    Catching up with Aren Bazerkanian from Havid Nagan In Dubai

    With help from the OT time machine, we turn back the clocks to late 2025, where Felix caught up with Havid Nagan, founder of Aren Bazerkanian in Dubai. Thanks to the awesome power of the sun, causing the camera to overheat, this chat is a little shorter than usual. Still, Aren gave Felix an update on how Havid Nagan has been growing, and teased some plans for Origins, a more accessible offering from the US-based independent.
