A special podcast this week: the rare completely in person pod, featuring Zach Kazan, Devin Pennypacker, Griffin Bartsch, and Blake Malin. We had a large group in the office last week, and took the opportunity to sit down and record a pod together without the assistance of our helpful virtual studio. After a lengthy discussion of how many deviled eggs we all consumed at the previous night's annual Worn & Wound post-holiday party, the group responds to hot takes submitted by our Instagram followers and the Worn & Wound+ community. We had such a great time providing our own hot takes a few weeks ago, we decided to open the concept up to our listeners, and they did not disappoint. In this episode, we respond to takes dealing with old chestnuts like watch pricing, the nature of a tool watch, and whether the GMT complication is overhyped. This is a fun and at times spirited discussion, and we hope you enjoy it. We're always interested in hearing your hottest takes, so be sure to leave them in the comments below.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan, Zach Weiss, and Devin Pennypacker take a stab at a tried and true watch podcast trope: watch industry predictions! We don't want to get our watch podcast membership club card revoked, so we're doing that thing many of our colleagues do and making potentially errant predictions about what we think might be coming in 2025. We've got ideas on watch pricing, the state of watch media, what might be coming from Tudor and Rolex, and a whole lot more (including, of course, stone dials). Before we get started on the predictions, we also chat a bit about some of the first new releases of the year, including a new watch from Toledano & Chan and an all new project from indie watchmaking legend Peter Speake.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

This week on the podcast, Kat Shoulders catches up with Zach Kazan, who just returned from Geneva Watch Days and a whirlwind three days of meeting with brands and seeing a ton of new watches. Kat and Zach discuss the genesis of Geneva Watch Days and how it differs in key ways from Watches & Wonders, and then they talk about some of the big new releases from last week's festivities, including a new collaboration between H. Moser and Studio Underd0g, a stunning superwatch from Girard-Perregaux, and a great new chronograph (and a bunch of other cool stuff) from Ming.Be sure to check out all the coverage so far from Geneva Watch Days in the show notes below, and stay tuned to Worn & Wound for even more over the course of the next week.This episode was sponsored by Sternglas and their new Naos Pro Automatik Watch.

Today, we sit down with Kenneth Lam of Arken Watch Co. We chat about what kind of watch collector he was early on, what inspired his brand, and what's to come from Arken. As many of you know, his designs stand out among the many micro-brands out there, and Ken is using some interesting complications we dive into on the pod this week. To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the podcast, we're coming to you from Oceanside, CA at the brand new headquarters of the James Brand. Kat Shoulders and James Helms are joined by Ryan Coulter and Mike Hoefer from the James Brand. The Worn & Wound team was in Oceanside over the weekend for a pop-up at the brand new James Brand HQ that included some of our favorite brands, including Brew, Citizen, Zodiac, and of course the James Brand itself. In this episode, we hear about the origins of the James Brand, how they expanded, and the sometimes underreported role of design and aesthetics in the EDC community.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by one of Worn & Wound's newest team members, Devin Pennypacker. Devin is Worn & Wound's Digital Media Specialist, a watch industry veteran, and someone you'll be hearing from and seeing a lot more of in the near future, so we're incredibly happy to have him on the podcast to introduce him to our listeners. Devin has been interested in watches for years, and in this conversation he discusses his path through the hobby and how he wound up at Worn & Wound while telling us about the watches he's interested in, what he looks for as a collector, and more. Devin and Zach also chat about his recent experience at the Mubadala City DC Open with Rado, and what makes their ceramic watches so appealing. Devin also gives us a preview of an upcoming feature on the Seiko Samurai, a longtime personal favorite of his, and a diver that sometimes goes under the radar when compared to the brand's more well known divers, and chats about his recent “Windup in a Lake” experience at the Windup Watch Fair in Chicago.A reminder: Worn & Wound is heading to the West Coast!

This week on the podcast, Kat Shoulders and Zach Kazan are once again taking questions from our Worn & Wound+ community members and Instagram followers. There were lots of good questions this month, including one on our favorite watch spots in movies, our favorite ana-digi watches, and how we rank various strap material options. There's also a very important question about how we cut our sandwiches, which is perhaps the most surprising and controversial question we've ever tackled. A reminder: Worn & Wound is heading to the West Coast!

Today on the podcast, Zach Kazan sits down with Griffin Bartsch, Worn & Wound contributor and watch collector, about his path into collecting and why he's stuck around in the hobby. Griffin got started in the hobby at a young age with a hand-me-down vintage watch, and that set the stage for years of exploration into watches of all kinds. Griffin takes us through some of the watches that have defined his taste over the years, and how his outlook has changed over time, including through his experiences at auctions, writing about watches, and working for a major watch retailer. Griffin also gives us a preview of his upcoming review of the Zenith Defy Extreme Diver, one of the most talked about new releases of the year.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

On this week's podcast, Zach Kazan, Kat Shoulders, and Zach Weiss are on the mic to talk about their watch origin stories. Everyone has a first watch, and these are the ones that, although we couldn't possibly know it at the time, set us on an inexorable path to the watch industry. We'd love to know what your first watch was, and if you still have it, so let us know in the comments below. Since we knew we'd be talking about first watches, we thought we'd also provide some recommendations for first watches if anyone in your life might be looking to pick up a time telling device for the wrist, and potentially fall down what we can all agree is quite the rabbit hole. These are very loose recommendations, not necessarily taking price or age into account, and we tried to have as much fun with these as possible. We think there are some pretty good choices included!To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the podcast, we continue a Windup Watch Fair tradition. For the third year in a row, we're teaming with our friends Jason Heaton and James Stacey of The Grey NATO for a collaborative podcast. We recorded in front of a (packed) live audience on the final day of Windup, and covered a lot of ground. Once again, we're splitting it up so you'll hear the first half on our feed today, and the second half on TGN tomorrow. In this half of the conversation, Zach Kazan, Zach Weiss, and the TGN guys talk about their favorite watches at the fair. There were a lot of great watches on display at the show, and we really only scratched the surface. We also get all the details on the third iteration of “Windup in a Lake,” our annual dive trip on Lake Michigan, which this year was sponsored by Citizen. Be sure to check out TGN tomorrow to hear all about the TGN get-together that took place shortly before our podcast recording, as well as a lengthy Q&A session from our live audience.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, it's time to preview the Windup Watch Fair in Chicago. Events Manager Nelly Calhoun takes over hosting duties this week, and is joined by Worn & Wound cofounders Zach Weiss and Blake Malin. Together they discuss the origins of the Windup Watch Fair, the growth of the microbrand and independent watch community, and they even tell some war stories from the earliest days of the show. Before that, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are on mic to introduce this week's episode, and share some of their own Windup memories.Just a note, in the intro, Zach and Kat mistakenly introduce the main panel as including Kyle Snarr, Head of Partnerships, who was not able to join in on this episode. To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, it's time once again for our monthly(ish) Q&A episode, and this time Zach Kazan is joined by Zach Weiss for a series of great questions from our Worn & Wound+ Slack community and Instagram followers. In this episode we have questions about the “most improved” brands in the space, how we maintain enthusiasm for watches, and our preferred straps for summer. There's also a highly controversial question here that asks us to choose between tacos and hamburgers, and regret ensues immediately after it's answered.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Michiel Holthinrichs, founder of the aptly named Holthinrichs Watches. Holthinrichs is a brand that we've admired at Worn & Wound for years for their sculpture-like, architectural designs that are quite unlike anything else in the watch industry. Michiel discusses his background, the origins of the brand, and what he's trying to accomplish in the watch world. There's also a lot of talk about the brand's newest release, the Signature Collection, which represents a fairly dramatic shift in strategy for Holthinrichs. Michiel talks about why they've launched the Signature Collection now, the challenges they've navigated as a brand, and why he's excited about the future.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

On this episode of the Worn & Wound podcast, we're happy to be joined by Joe Kirk from Grand Seiko. Joe has been on the podcast a few times, most recently in 2022, and he's always a fantastic guest. In this episode, Kat Shoulders and Zach Weiss chat with Joe about the recent crop of releases from Grand Seiko at this year's Watches & Wonders event, including watches powered by the new 9SA4 caliber, and the incredible color changing dial featured on the SBGC275. They also talk about a huge variety of other topics, including servicing your Grand Seiko, the story behind the new Kodo, and what makes the new Grand Seiko flagship boutique in New York City special. He also provides some insight into the release of the new Locomotive from Credor, one of the most unexpected and exciting new releases this year. This is an episode you won't want to miss if you're a Grand Seiko fan, new or old.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

On the podcast this week, Kat Shoulders and James Helms are joined by Mark Frankel, founder of Long Island Watch. Mark is a longtime fixture in the watch industry and has been part of the Worn & Wound story from the beginning. Many of the early watches reviewed in the early days of the website were actually lent to us by Mark and Long Island Watch. Mark's business has grown along with Worn & Wound, including a popular YouTube channel and his own brand, Islander, which of course is sold through Long Island Watch. This is a fun conversation that covers a wide range of topics including the difficulty of cracking the YouTube algorithm, keeping track of growing collections, and the history of Long Island Watch.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the podcast, Zach and Kat sit down to answer your questions in our monthly Q&A. We got a ton of great questions, as we always do, from our Instagram followers and our Worn & Wound+ Slack community. Among the topics discussed: our favorite summer watches, the concept of a “backup” watch, and how we keep track of our growing collections. Kat and Zach also consider a question on whether they'd let a certain watch brand run the world.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

On this week's podcast, Zach Kazan and Zach Kazan are putting a new spin on an old format. The “3 for $5k” column is a Worn & Wound staple (and the Reader Edition will be back very soon), but with inflation being what it is these days, we thought it was time to extend the upper limit of our budget for this thought experiment. So in this episode, Zach and Zach decide on their own personal three watch collection for $10,000. It's interesting to see how their thought processes change (and stay the same) with more fake money to play with. Let us know how you'd spend a hypothetical $10,000 in the comments below.

Back in the summer of 2021, we took a stab at recasting watches in well known movies (and offering some of our favorite watches from movies as well). Today, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders return to this format, with a little help from our Worn & Wound+ Slack community. First, they go over some of their favorite recent (and not so recent) examples of watches in movies (and TV!), and then they humbly suggest a few alternatives to well known watches in movies. And yes, the Hamilton Boulton in the most recent Indiana Jones film is addressed at some length, as are the watches of Jurassic Park.If you're a watch enthusiast and a movie lover, you know that this is fertile ground for an additional episode or two, so let us know in the comments if there's a movie you want us to recast and we'll tackle that in a future episode.This episode is sponsored by Sternglas and their new Hamburg Chrono Mecha-Quartz. After continued requests from the community and two years of tinkering, there is now a Chronograph in the Hamburg line of watches, and there are 3 unique variations. Check out the new Sternglas Hamburg Chrono Mecha-Quartz right now. To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Zach Weiss are joined by Ed Jelley to finally put a bow on Watches & Wonders 2024, discussing their favorite releases from the show and their overall impressions of this year's slate of watches. Before the Watches & Wonders talk, however, there's a big new release from one of our favorite brands to discuss. Christopher Ward dropped the new Twelve X last week, and it quickly became the hottest topic in the watch world. Zach Weiss had a chance to see the watch in person ahead of its release, and he gives us his first impressions and a rundown of why this watch is a pretty big deal for Christopher Ward as a brand, and what it might mean for the industry as a whole.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

Over the years, Garrick Watchmakers has become one of our favorite independent brands. Their distinct design language draws on the heritage of classic British watchmaking, and the watches themselves are almost entirely bespoke. Truly, each one is made to order, and clients have enormous latitude in picking out nearly every detail. Dave Brailsford is Garrick's cofounder and joins Zach Weiss and Zach Kazan in this episode of the Worn & Wound podcast to discuss Garrick's history, the unique challenges of running a brand where the client has such a large role in the decision making process, and painstaking production process that sees Garrick making a huge amount of each watch in-house. To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are joined by  Xavier de Roquemaurel, the CEO of Czapek, one of our favorite independent brands. As you'll hear in this interview, Xavier has an energy for watches that is unmatched, and he provides his candid opinions in this conversation on a range of topics that many watch industry CEOs will not broach publicly. Of course, there's also plenty of talk about the brand's latest release, just announced ahead of Watches & Wonders, and a peek behind the curtain at what goes into planning for such a huge event.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are once again turning to our Worn & Wound+ community to answer your questions. This week, they're focused specifically on Watches & Wonders, which is less than two weeks away, which means that we are (hopefully) in the last stages of planning for the big show. Questions, as you'd expect, cover a variety of topics, from the food in Geneva, to the gear we're bringing, and, of course, all of that swag that brands hand out at the show.This episode is sponsored by Sternglas and their new Lumatic watch. Answering the community's call, it is the first Sternglas to have dual-tone Luminova. It is an automatic watch that pushes the Bauhaus design to its minimalist limits. It's the first Sternglas with the Miyota 8315 movement and two different Luminova colors. This new model has a satin-finished light blue dial with glowing white 3D shaded numerals and orange glowing geometric indexes. The movement features a 60-hour power reserve, quick setting date, stop seconds and 21 jewels. The case is 38mm in diameter and 12mm thick and has a water resistance of 50 meters. The display case back exhibits the movement's blued screws, striped finishing, and skeletonized rotor.

This week on the podcast, Zach and Kat are joined by Ed Jelley to chat about two of the biggest watch releases of the year so far: new divers from Seiko and a brand new white dialed Speedmaster Professional from Omega. These new watches generated a lot of buzz when they were unveiled within days of each other recently, and with Ed owning both a Speedy Pro and a prior version of the Seiko 62MAS influenced diver unveiled recently, we knew we had to get his take on both. Later, Zach, Kat, and Ed discuss their favorite watches under $1,000, inspired by a recent feature on the website. As Ed points out, this is a great time to have $1,000 to spend on a watch, with an unending variety of styles to choose from. The group talks through some of their favorites from Brew, Hamilton, Lorier, Doxa, and more.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week, Zach welcomes Christopher Chew to the podcast. Christopher is a watch collector with a materials science background, and has experience in a variety of fields including aviation, apparel, and in the startup space, where he's been involved in some truly cutting edge projects. Christopher has a really interesting perspective on watches and sees the materials they're made of as a new frontier of innovation in the watch industry. In this conversation, Zach and Christopher run through some common misconceptions about the materials used in watchmaking, and discuss what might be on the horizon in the realm of watchmaking materials given where we're at now.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Zach Weiss for a discussion about all things pertaining to calendar watches, particularly perpetual calendars. Last week was Leap Day, a calendar event that is celebrated with great enthusiasm by watch lovers, who get really excited to see their perpetual calendars do their thing when the calendar changes from 2/29 to 3/1. Zach and Zach run through some of their favorite perpetuals in this conversation, and discuss what draws them to these watches in the first place.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

We're happy to be joined by Markus Wälchli and Raphael Granito from Formex for this conversation, and Worn & Wound cofounder (and designer of this particular watch) Zach Weiss is here too. This is a deep dive into the history of Formex and the unique challenges of creating this specific watch, plus we also hear from Zach Weiss about the sci-fi influenced campaign built around “The Watch from Another World.”This episode of the Worn & Wound podcast is brought to you by the Windup Watch Shop and the Formex x Worn & Wound Essence Sector 39 Chronometer Limited Edition – inspired by the worlds of sci-fi films and series, the Essence Sector 39 Chronometer envisions a watch from an alternate universe. To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

We're back this week with our monthly Q&A podcast episode. Kat Shoulders, Zach Weiss, and Zach Kazan are all on the mic fielding questions from our Instagram followers and Worn & Wound+ Slack community. Topics this month are as varied as usual, and touch on hypothetical titanium Seikos, limitations of mass produced movements, our longest honeymoon period with a watch, and a lot more. We love to do these Q&A episodes, so if you want to get a question in for the next one, be sure to join our Worn & Wound+ Slack group and keep an eye out for our monthly call for questions.Special thanks to Sherpa Watches for sponsoring this week's podcast. Sherpa created their own true compressor case system, including the bayonet compressor case back and the compressor crowns, built in-house. Their unique design, including the double crown and crown guards, are all made from German or Swiss components. The watches feature 200 meter water resistance certified to the ISO 6425 norm. Finally they have what they call their “spiritual complication”,  Tibetan Buddhist prayer wheels in the watch movement that connect to the tradition of the Nepalese Sherpa people.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan talks to Laurence Bodenmann, Head of Heritage at Zenith. Laurence has what might seem like a dream job for a watch lover, poring over the Zenith archives and diving deep into the brand's history, looking for ways to preserve and communicate that long history to a modern audience. Laurence is a trained anthropologist (and teacher) and takes an appropriately academic approach to her job at Zenith, and has a perspective like few others we've talked to on the podcast. In this episode, Laurence explains exactly what a Head of Heritage at a historical Swiss watch brand does, how she wound up at Zenith, and tells a few stories about discoveries she's made along the way that have surprised her.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the podcast, Zach welcomes Worn & Wound contributor Nathan Schultz. Nathan has been writing for Worn & Wound for nearly a year, and is the creator of the “Selling Points” series, where he brings his unique perspective on finding value (and sometimes not finding value) to the Worn & Wound community. Zach and Nathan talk about Nathan's history in the hobby and what draws him specifically to affordably priced watches. They also talk about watch modding culture and how Nathan recently did some surgery on a Bulova Hack to fix a noisy rotor.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan, Kat Shoulders, and Ricardo Sime jump on the mic to talk about some of their recent watch acquisitions, and what those pickups might mean (or not mean) for their collections in 2024. Ricardo finally added a GMT to his collection in late 2023 after a long search, Kat picked up a new limited edition Fears (one of her favorite brands), and Zach bought a James Lamb after his usual long period of deliberation. In this conversation, they each talk about what led them to each of their new watches, and how those watches fit into their collecting goals for the upcoming year.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

Today on the Worn & Wound podcast, we're once again joined by Dana Li, founder of Tell the Time, a watch platform focused on providing a female driven perspective on the watch world. In this episode, after a brief discussion on the influx of Lunar New Year watches and some other new releases from a busy first month of the year, Dana, Zach Kazan, and Zach Weiss play a game of Overrated/Underrated, each proposing a handful of topics and asking for the group's hottest take: are these overrated or underrated? Discussion points include micro-adjustment on bracelet clasps, the various flavors of gold in watch cases, and vintage watches in general.This episode was sponsored by Citizen and their new Promaster Air Automatic GMT watch, a first for the Promaster line. The launch celebrates the 35th anniversary of Promaster, a line that embodies the spirit of adventure in the air, on land or at sea and lives up to the values of functionality, durability, and performance.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are once again taking questions from the Worn & Wound+ Slack community. We seek out questions from listeners about once a month, and you came up with some great ones for January. Zach and Kat field questions on topics ranging from the relaunch of Universal Geneve, mid century watch design fatigue, and a growing interest in independent watchmaking. There's also a great discussion on the place of homage watches, and a quick diversion into Zach and Kat's home audio setups. If you're not yet involved in the Worn & Wound+ Slack, click here to join today. It's completely free to join, and there are great watch discussions happening there every single day.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week, the Worn & Wound podcast is all about tool watches. We've got Zach Kazan, Kat Shoulders, Zach Weiss, and Ricardo Sime on mic to discuss the finer points of a category in watchmaking that is essentially inescapable. But what does it really mean to own and collect tool watches in 2024? We try to define what a tool watch is in the first place (we've found there's no real consensus) and grapple with whether an interest in tool watches has more to do with practicality, aesthetics, or something else entirely. It's a fun conversation that takes all kinds of unexpected turns.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the first podcast of 2024, it's our annual predictions episode, where we look ahead to the new year and make our best guesses about what's to come. It's part wishful thinking, and partly just hunches we've been harboring, but it's always fun to play prognosticator and imagine what might transpire over the next twelve months. On this episode, Zach and Kat welcome an often requested guest: Norqain's Katlen Schmidt! That's right – that makes this episode a Tenn & Two reunion episode, which is just a fantastic way to start the year. Katlen shares some of her own predictions for 2024, including her thoughts on more color, movement innovations, and the limited edition trend.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

On this week's Worn & Wound podcast, final podcast of 2023, Zach Kazan chats with Chris Antzoulis, one of the website's newest contributors, about some of his recent work. In addition to being a watch collector, Chris has a background in comics, which made him incredibly well suited to chat with comic book legend Adam Kubert recently about his new collaboration with Citizen and Marvel, which feels like a major crossover moment between two enthusiast worlds. Chris also developed the concept behind “Watches and What Else,” a series that examines the “other” interests of watch collectors, always looking for ways watch collecting connects to other pursuits. If you haven't checked out “Watches and What Else” yet, we've linked the series to this point in the show notes below.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week, as the year draws to a close, the Worn & Wound team considers their favorite watch releases from the last twelve months. This is our Watch of the Year episode, where we find Zach Kazan, Zach Weiss, Kat Shoulders, and Ed Jelley picking the watches that stood out to them in a crowded year of new releases. Their picks run the gamut, from affordable micro-brand staples, to the impossibly high end haute horlogerie, and everything in between.Let us know in the comments what releases stood out to you, and stay tuned to these pages as we'll be bringing you our full year end wrap up featuring contributions from our contributing writers next week.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we return to a format that we first explored earlier this year, and provide some (mostly) non-watch recommendations to our listeners. Zach Weiss, Zach Kazan, Kat Shoulders, and Kyle Snarr are in the studio and are armed with lists of movies, shows, bags, books, and more that have caught their attention recently. We always have a lot of fun sharing the things we like outside of the watch space with our listeners, and we'd love to hear about the stuff you've been enjoying too, so be sure to leave a comment with your own recs below.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

It's Q&A time once again! In this episode of the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Weiss, Kat Shoulders, and Zach Kazan are fielding questions from you, our listeners, submitted via Instagram and our Worn & Wound+ Slack channel. For this round of questions, we field queries from a diverse range of topics, including our favorite straps to splurge on, the bags we carry, and even what we did before our Worn & Wound days. We also tackle the age old question of how we know it's time to sell a watch, and we even touch on the possibility of the Windup Watch Fair heading to the UK (spoiler alert: no definitive plans yet, but we love to think about it). We love answering your questions and will be sure to do more episodes like this in the future, so if you want a chance to submit your own question, hit the link for our Worn & Wound+ Slack channel in the show notes below.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.
