    For episode 63 of the Time 4A Pint Podcast, I got together with Toronto based Justin Mastine-Frost. Outgoing editor in chief of watchuseek.com and fitrated.com, and brand new Director of Digital Content for Sharp Magazine, Canada's foremost luxury publication. Justin and I first got to hang out in November of 2020, when he and fellow guest Aldis Hodge  joined me and Mat for our 15th Virtual GTG (which you can check out on YouTube). Justin was not messing about that day, and brought some serious horological heat, in the form of an Arnold and Son Nebula. Which as anyone who's scrolled through Justin's Instagram account will tell you, is just one fascinating piece in a hugely varied collection that spans high end to affordable, and mainstream to independent. I had no idea what Justin was going to bring along today, but I knew that whatever it was, it would be interesting. And colourful. Or grey. Or both.

The topics we covered were many and varied. Including, but not limited to: buying and maintaining group B rally cars, ram raids, Vietnam era pilot's helmets, the joy of putting your kid's face onto plates, pillows, and tote bags, how weird and wonderful it is to be a Dad, Birman cats, Mr Frumples the dog, great TV Shows we're currently watching, the Jaguar XJ220, running a lifestyle clothing brand, watch sausage parties, how instagram can be a rather dull unimaginative echo chamber, turning Rolexes into art, collecting Patek's from the 70s, buying the things that you really like, and the importance of a test tube filled with oil.

We talked about buying Rolex Submariners for £295, working in high end restaurants in London and Paris and opening one in Manhattan, selling an entire collection to pay the bills when the world changed on September 11, and starting over in Brooklyn with a very cool neighbourhood bar called Iona. Diving with watches, changing beer barrels with watches, buying vintage, meeting independents, and being tipped off to a spectacularly uncommon, and tough as nails JLC by a former NFL player.

    Much of the watch collecting hobby, is about enablement. One or more collectors, gently nudging another towards functions, styles, heritage, brands, and models that they might find interesting. Sometimes this happens face to face, over one too many pints of winkles old peculiar, sometimes it happens on forums through friendly discussion and heated debate, and more and more, the subtle power of an Instagram friend’s beautifully shot photographs, shoulder the responsibility for an unplanned horological purchase. Sometimes, however, enablement happens in total isolation, through heavy google searching, a conviction that “bi-metallic 1000m water resistant mechanical alarm watches from the 1970s” are totally underrated, and an ill advised late night session on a popular auction platform. Today’s show is not about those late night eBay purchases. Mostly because I don’t own any of them. Any more. But is is about enablement - specifically me being enabled into the world of SCUBA diving by long-time diver, friend of the show, the man behind team Watchnerd, and today’s guest, Mat. A quick warning for listeners with a sensitive disposition, this weeks show contains stories of dive watches being used for diving. Who knew that was a thing?

    A Brief History of Watches in Space

    Play Episode Listen Later Sep 28, 2019 39:27


    During the late 1950s, the human race developed a taste for building huge, powerful, rockets, and launching them into outer space. Exciting stuff, for sure, but made much more exciting, when on April 12 1961, Soviet Cosmonaut Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin was strapped into one of these rockets, and became the first human being to travel into space. Wearing a 17-jewel Sturmanskie watch on his wrist. Now, the 17-jewel Sturnmanskie may not be on the wish list of many collectors, however its use by Gagarin in Vostok 1, earns it a place on the register of watches in space. This is a theoretical register, as far as I know, but were it to be beautifully presented in hardback form, preferably, with lots of lovely photographs, you could assume, it would contain a great deal of black dialled, hand wound, triple register chronographs, with the greek symbol for Omega on their dial.  Tucked in between all of those Swiss made 321, 861, and 1861 calibre chronographs, you’d find timepieces from all manner of brands, containing all kinds of tech -  tuning fork watches of various flavours, brightly coloured automatic chronographs, cheap, cheerful, robust, and accurate digital watches, dressy chronographs that you’d never expect to see in an industrial situation, pilots watches with complicated slide rules on their dial, and a whole host of coronet adorned divers and GMTs. There are so many watches that have been worn in space, that someone really could write a book on the subject. But that’s perhaps a task for another day. Today, we’re suiting up, strapping in, and launching ourselves into a very brief history of watches in space.

    With the heavy media focus on the Moonwatch and the 50th Anniversary of Apollo 11 this year, you could be forgiven for thinking that Omega produce nothing but manual wind chronographs, and that the only exploration they have been involved with required rockets and spacesuits. Equally, glancing at the ongoing surge in vintage, and limited edition modern Speedmaster prices, it seems that some collectors feel that if it wasn’t on the wrist of Aldrin, Armstrong, or Collins (or related to a watch they wore), that it’s not really worth hunting down. Pure lunacy. Today’s guest has pushed through the Moonwatch phase of his collecting madness, and donned mask, flippers, and snorkel, to explore the depths of Omega’s vast vintage catalogue. His focus pulled from Omega watches that splashed down into the ocean on the wrists of engineers, scientists and explorers, to Omega watches that went deep under the oceans surface on the wrists of engineers, scientists, and explorers. Horological tools that couldn’t be more different. Although those cases do look incredibly similar...

    Head back to the 1960s and 70s, and if you were buying a watch designed for professional diving, you were more likely to wear suits made from form fitting neoprene, than hand tailored wool to your place of work. Thankfully the professional tool watches that found their way into hands of COMEX and Cousteau, were incredibly rugged, and incredibly water resistant - So those of us that are more comfortable behind a desk, than in a diving bell, can enjoy them today. Not that either today’s guest, or myself are likely to be found wearing a suit, or being allowed to undertake any serious diving for that matter - Frankly, there’s more chance of us knowing the Greek word for “the depth of the ocean”.

    Welcome to Episode 41 of the Time 4A Pint Podcast - This week I ventured into the world of Antiquarian Horology, and English pocket watches, with knowledgable and incredibly patient watchmaker, Seth Kennedy. Seth brought along a selection of the tools he uses when working on the timepieces of the past, along with a few watches from his own collection, including two that he has hand crafted brand new, sterling silver cases for. For the wags who felt that the modern British watches on episode 39 weren’t quite British enough, hopefully the pieces on today’s show will satisfy your patriotic urges!

They're from different ends of spectrum in terms of production location, retail price, and size of the businesses behind them. And very honestly, they're very different watches in many ways. That said, they do share some key characteristics - they're a pair of tool watches that were released on the internet, are equally endowed with epic amounts of super-luminova, and both look as at home in the pub, as they do out diving or exploring outer space respectively. We think they make rather an attractive pair of Horological Sisters from (very) Different Misters.  Head to https://www.time4apint.com/podcast/the-time-4a-pint-podcast-episode-32 for pictures and show notes.
