Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen What does your watch mean to you? For many, a timepiece is much more than a tool—it's a bridge between generations, a celebration of achievement, and a lasting legacy. In this episode of Inspired Money, we go beyond the basics of watch collecting to explore why watches become treasured family heirlooms, how to build collections that stand the test of time, and what every collector (from beginner to seasoned expert) should know in today's evolving market. If you're passionate about craftsmanship, storytelling, or the idea of passing something meaningful onto future generations, this episode is for you. Meet the Expert Panelists Paul Boutros is Deputy Chairman and Head of Watches, Americas at Phillips, where he helped build the auction house's powerhouse watch department after joining in 2014. A lifelong watch enthusiast with a background in electrical engineering, he led the record-breaking sale of Paul Newman's Rolex Daytona for $17.8 million, solidifying his reputation as one of the foremost experts in vintage timepieces. https://www.phillips.com Stephen Pulvirent is a writer, photographer, and creative director whose career has spanned leading roles at Hodinkee, Bloomberg, and Surface Media. Now based in Los Angeles, he is the founder of Rime & Reason, a creative agency helping global brands tell smarter, culture-driven stories, while also pursuing his passion for fine art photography. Stephen is also the cofounder of The Enthusiasts, a podcast and newsletter about the culture of watch collecting. https://stephenpulvirent.com Tariq Malik is the founder of Momentum, the Middle East's premier destination for vintage and collectible watches located in heart of Dubai's financial district.

Storytelling & Legacy in Watch Collecting Stephen Pulvirent explores why watches are more than just mechanical objects—“it's the stories that watches carry, the stories we tell ourselves about the watches we own and the roles they play in our lives that elevates them beyond ordinary, everyday things and makes them special objects.” Collectors aren't just building assets but capturing lifetimes of meaning that can be passed on for generations. 2. The Restoration Craft: Preserving Memories Dan Spitz demystifies the watchmaker's role in bringing legacy timepieces back to life. He shares moving stories of clients reconnecting emotionally with watches once thought beyond repair: “Some of them cry. You can see they want to reach out and hug me, and that's why I do what I do.” Restoration isn't just about function—it's about reviving memories and enabling the handover of treasures between generations.  3. Authenticity, Transparency, and Investment Smarts Paul Boutros provides insider guidance on buying for love, not just investment. He stresses the importance of authenticity, craftsmanship, and reputation: “Buy the best quality watches at the price level that you can afford… made by great brands who have pushed the state of the art.” Whether for legacy or potential appreciation, collecting watches well is about informed passion, not quick returns.  4. From Teenage Trader to Dubai Authority Tariq Malik recounts how Swatch trading as a teenager evolved into a global vintage watch business. His journey underscores the importance of transparency, relationship-building, and quality when buying or selling a timepiece. “Today it's a lot about the value, but the real richness is in the connection you have with the watch and its story.” Call-to-Action This week, pick one watch—whether you wear it daily or have it tucked away—and write down the story you want it to tell. Is it a symbol of achievement, a family heirloom, or an inspiration for the future? Share that story with someone you care about, or reflect on how your collection can become a living legacy.

This week, we sit down with the man at the helm of one of the most interesting and exciting Swiss watch brands: Parmigiani Fleurier CEO Guido Terreni. Terrini stepped into the leadership role in 2020, a turbulent time for any brand, and since then has rapidly injected energy and excitement into one of the most credible brands born in the 1990s. We chat about Terreni's strategy and the opportunities that the excitement around the Tonda and the Toric provides. We also touch on what it's like to have the King of England send his watch in for service and why a Parmigiani Fleurier boutique on Macchu Picchu isn't out of the question.  Before that, Andy and Felix talk GPHG, the unusual launch of the Universal Geneve Polerouter and Tony Traina 2.0.  Show Notes: https://www.otpodcast.com.au/show-notes Tony's new newsletter, Unpolished (4:41) The Universal Geneve Polerouter relaunch (and Felix's well-timed article) (7:03) The Polerouter Reference Website (8:53) The GPHG winners (11:39) Guido Terreni, Parmigiani Fleurier interview (17:40) Parmigiani Fleurier Parmigiani Fleurier on Instagram Like watches?

Es ist das glamouröseste Event des Uhrenjahres: der Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève kurz GPHG. Wie jedes Jahr wurden auch diesen November wieder in Genf die herausragendsten Uhren des Jahres prämiert. Zusammen mit Marc, dem Gründer des Frankfurter RedBar Chapters, spricht Chris die insgesamt 90 nominierten Uhren durch. Welche Modelle ihre Highlights waren und wer den "Aiguille D'Or", den großen Preis des Abends, abgeräumt hat, erfahrt Ihr in dieser Episode des UhrTalks. Wir wünschen wie immer gute Unterhaltung!

The watch world's biggest award show just wrapped up and we have a new slate of this year's winning watches to admire. For those who aren't familiar with the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG), it's essentially the Oscars of the watch industry where nominated timepieces are selected as "Best Chronograph," "Best Men's Watch," "Most Iconic," and so on. The biggest prize of the night, however, is the "Aiguille d'Or Grand Prix," which rewards the best overall timepiece among all categories. While most of the categories are self-explanatory, it's worth pointing out that the "Challenge Prize" is awarded to exceptional watches with a retail price equal to or under CHF 3,000 whereas the “Petite Aiguille” award goes to watches with a retail price between CHF 3,000 and CHF 10,000. With that in mind, let's get to the winning watches of GPHG 2024.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

This week on aBlogtoWatch Weekly, Ariel is traveling, so Rick is joined by David and Ripley, and guests Kevin and Matt. They start off with a 69k Omega X Swatch — say what? — That's a $300 watch. But it's for charity. Next up in the queue is talk of the end of the Only Watch auction, which would be the end of an era if it had actually been an era. Talk then turns to the GHPG Awards, and Ripley takes note of the brands not participating, and the significance of that in context. The guys briefly touch on the speculative question of how Tr***'s recent election will affect the watch industry. They wrap, as always, with Hit, Miss, Maybe.

For years, we've followed the GPHG – the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève – with great excitement and interest as it's essentially the Oscars of Watches. And with this year's award ceremony taking place November 13, we figured it would be helpful to lift the veil on what goes on behind the scenes. Who are the people who nominate these watches, and what does voting look like? Does the GPHG meaningfully drive sales for brands, and what's involved in participating? We get into all of that and more, as we share our own experience as voting GPHG academy members. Hosted by Asher Rapkin and Gabe Reilly, co-founders of Collective Horology, Openwork goes inside the watch industry. You can find us online at collectivehorology.com.

I denne episoden tar guttene en nærmere titt på de nominerte klokkene i GPHG, også kjent som «Oscar-utdelingen» for klokker. De deler sine tanker om årets favoritter, og hva som gjør denne prestisjetunge prisutdelingen så viktig for klokkebransjen.

24e édition du Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) : Innovation et Tradition à l'Honneur Le Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) célèbre cette année son 24e anniversaire avec des évolutions notables qui confirment son rôle de vitrine d'innovation et de tradition dans l'univers de l'horlogerie. Pour la première fois, une nouvelle catégorie baptisée « Time Only » fait son apparition, destinée à honorer les montres classiques, signe de reconnaissance de la valeur intemporelle des garde-temps élégants et épurés. En parallèle, le GPHG 2024 innove avec le lancement du Prix de l'Éco-Innovation, valorisant les initiatives éco-responsables dans le secteur. La cérémonie de remise des prix, prévue le 13 novembre au Théâtre du Léman, clôturera cet événement de prestige en célébrant les artisans et designers de l'horlogerie contemporaine, tout en soulignant l'importance d'une innovation respectueuse de l'environnement. Le président du GPHG, Raymond Lorétan, nous a accordé une entrevue au Musée Rath, où se tient l'exposition des 90 montres présélectionnées par l'Académie du GPHG. Ce lieu emblématique accueille également jusqu'au 17 novembre l'exposition « Beyond the Clock », une présentation inspirante des travaux des étudiants de la Chaire en Design Horloger et du Master Media Design de la HEAD, explorant les nouveaux horizons de la création horlogère.      

Tim and Armand take this episode to breakdown some of the competitors across various categories in this year's GPHG awards and predict who they think will come out on top. Categories like time-only and jewelry are discussed alongside watches like the IWC Portugieser Eternal Calendar and MB&F HM11.

Dans ce nouvel épisode, j'ai le plaisir de recevoir Alcée, cofondatrice de Maison Alcée. Après plusieurs expériences chez Richemont, Hermès ou encore Tag Heuer, une réalité s'impose : et si l'horlogerie finissait par se perdre, faute de réussir à transmettre ce savoir-faire ? Maison Alcée allait naître. L'idée ? Que chacun puisse assembler sa pendulette Persée, son garde-temps, au travers d'une expérience unique. Aux côtés de son mari Benoit, Alcée s'entoure d'une équipe plus que chevronnée (Thierry Ducret, Antoine Tschumi, Jean-Marie Desgrange) pour penser cette expérience d'un nouveau genre, de la création du mouvement, au choix des complications, des pièces. La cible ? Les amoureux de l'horlogerie, les passionnés souhaitant aller plus loin dans leurs connaissances horlogères, en accomplissant une part de rêve : assembler leur pendulette Persée, lui donner vie. Une aventure dores et déjà récompensée par le Prix de l'Audace au GPHG 2023. Et l'avenir, entre nouvelles complications et nouveaux projets ? Allez, c'est l'heure !

We share our biggest lessons from going inside the watch industry. We both made the transition from watch enthusiasts to industry insiders. We've had the opportunity to retail watches, design them, meet many industry luminaries, and even serve as GPHG academy members – and we've learned a ton along the way. We often get asked what that journey has been like, and what advice we'd give others who are looking to do the same or are just curious.

Dans ce nouvel épisode, direction Renens, où j'ai eu le plaisir de rencontrer Gael Petermann, le co-fondateur de Petermann-Bedat avec Florian Bedat. Tout commence à 15 ans, un peu par hasard, à l'école horlogère de Genève. Rapidement bercé par les indépendants, c'est finalement à Glashütte chez A. Lange & Söhne que Gael fait ses armes pour une expérience hors du commun. Les velléités d'indépendance et l'envie d'un retour en Suisse se font de plus en plus fortes, le chemin se poursuit un temps chez Svend Andersen pour commencer les premiers pas d'indépendants. Quelques années plus tard, Gael et Florian décident de créer leur marque, des idées plein les cartons. La suite ? Une première montre, la 1967 et sa fameuse seconde morte, et un premier prix au GPHG 2020 (révélation horlogère de l'année), en plein covid - la célébration attendra. La 2941 (chronographe à rattrapante mono poussoir) arrive quelques temps après : une montre créée dans le but de faire le plus plus beau chronographe, tout simplement. Pari plus que réussi, et un deuxième prix GPHG qui arrive en 2023 (chronographe de l'année). Et le Louis Vuitton Watch Prize ? Réponse demain ! L'aventure ne fait que commencer...allez, c'est l'heure !

Dans ce nouvel épisode, j'ai le plaisir de recevoir Mael, le fondateur de la marque Timeless Watch. Comment crée-t-on sa marque ? D'illustrateur 3D (Richard Mille, Preziuso, Ladoire) à créateur de montres, il n'y avait qu'un pas, ou presque. Retour sur le parcours d'un entrepreneur qui a su concrétiser son idée, sa vision, pour aboutir à créer ses montres autour d'une identité visuelle unique. Design, prototypes, créations, commercialisation, logistique, relation clients,...la liste des étapes est longue, l'histoire passionnante. Le tout dorénavant couronné par une nomination au Grand Prix Horloger de Genève, et son verdict le 9 novembre prochain. Quelque chose me dit que cette aventure hors du temps ne fait que commencer. Allez, c'est l'heure !

This week on the aBlogtoWatch Weekly podcast, the regular trio is at it again with the latest news and releases! The guys dive right into Tudor's latest release, the black Pelagos FXD, and the hype surrounding its announcement. Perhaps inevitably, that segues into a broader discussion of Tudor's catalog and product strategy. Then it's on to Apple's new watches, just announced at its latest event; a few questions about the Louis Vuitton Watch Prize, for which 20 semi-finalists were just announced; and this year's GPHG nominees. Then it's on to headier fare, as the team talks about the value of learning about watches you can't afford and will never own. Things wrap up with some new releases and recent reviews.  Highlights New Release: Tudor Drops A Black Pelagos FXD Watch Hands-On: Underwater With The Black Tudor Pelagos FXD Watch Hands-On: Apple Watch Series 9 Is First-Ever Fully Carbon Neutral Apple Product Hands-On: Apple Watch Ultra 2 Adds Carbon Neutral Options & Spec Upgrades Louis Vuitton Announces Semi-Finalists For The LV Watch Prize Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève Nominated timepieces | GPHG Ariel's Thoughts: Why You Should Take Interest In Luxury Watches You Can't Afford New Release: MB&F M.A.D.Editions M.A.D.1 GREEN Watch New : Ulysse Nardin Freak X OPS Watch New Release: The IWC Big Pilot's Watch AMG G 63 To Pair With Your G-Wagen New Release: Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Deep Black ETNZ Edition Watch Hands-On: Baume & Mercier's Titanium Riviera 39mm Watch Impresses We'd love to hear from you with feedback or suggestions for future show topics or guests.

We've finally made it, the big two zero zero. To celebrate, Andy and Felix ate some face cake off mic and then got down to the serious business of watch news. Felix chats about his recent jaunt to Sydney to check out IWC's Big Pilot Roadshow, then Andy puts on his bowling shirt, heats up the gabagool and talks about watch spotting in Sopranos. Then, some speculation about the (now not rumoured) Blancpain x Swatch Fifty Fathoms (sadly not called the Swifty Swathoms), and they discuss the latest from Geneva Watch Days and also the totally objective GPHG nominations. Finally, Felix chats about the watch on his wrist, the perfectly petite Nomos Club Sport. Looking for hot drops and crop tops? Join our Discord.

We start in Geneva with the GPHG, taking a look at a handful of this year's winners, and then head to the UK to go offroad with Bamford and Land Rover.

This week on the podcast, Blake Buettner, Zach Kazan, and Patrick Marlett discuss watches, gaming, a very fancy tourbillon with a Vantablack dial, and, of course, proper grammar. But the main topic for this episode is the GPHG awards, and the very idea of awarding watches at all. Should we really be pitting watches against each other? Is there a better way to recognize watchmaking greatness that we haven't quite stumbled upon yet? It's a surprisingly thorny topic and we dive right in on this episode. Did you follow the GPHG awards? Do they matter to you at all?
