The Worn & Wound Podcast

In the first half of the episode, we sit down with Franz Linder, the CEO of Mido watches, in Mexico City to discuss the 100-year history of the brand (you'll never guess how Mido used to water seal their watches, but you'll find out how from Mr. Linder). In the second half of the episode, we talk to RT Custer of Vortic Watch Company in his second appearance on the podcast. This time around, we discuss Vortic's latest exciting venture, the Railroad Edition project.

On this week's episode, Worn & Wound Managing Editor Ilya Ryvin and Contributor Allen Farmelo discuss how they pair their watches to the occasion.

If you read Worn & Wound daily, then you're well aware that we're our Wind^Up Watch Fair to San Francisco in our first-ever West Coast show. On this week’s episode of The Worn & Wound Podcast, we’re previewing the show and what you can expect. Also, a quick note about the podcast. Starting this week, The Worn & Wound Podcast will be published every two weeks rather than every week.

On today's episode of The Worn & Wound Podcast, Worn & Wound Managing Editor Ilya Ryvin and Worn & Wound Contributor Allen Farmelo discuss the unique role that luck plays in the lives of collectors.

Special thanks to @ashtonyoung, @rigzz, @alvarez_brian, @theadultkid, @bradleyslavin, and @time_4_adventures for the great questions.

About a month back, we ran an article titled Field Test: SCUBA Diving in Belize With Four Popular Dive Watches from Seiko, Oris, and Rado. Today, Allen joins us on the Podcast to take a deeper dive (pun intended) into the story. We discuss the certification process, the watches, what happened when Allen's breathing apparatus failed underwater, and so much more.

On this week's episode of The Worn & Wound Podcast, Ilya and Worn & Wound contributor Allen Farmelo discuss Baselworld 2018, Allen's trip to New Zealand with the Oris Big Crown ProPilot Worldtimer, and a whole lot more.

On this week's episode of The Worn & Wound Podcast, we continue our series where we look at 10 great watches within a certain pricing category, this time focusing on $1,500 to $2,000. This week's episode is brought to you by the Worn & Wound Shop.

On today's episode of The Worn & Wound Podcast, we decided to do something a little different. We turned to Instagram and Instagram Live for questions about Baselworld from you all, and we recorded our answers for today's show. We cover a wide range of topics, from the show's hottest releases to our favorite booth designs of the fair.

We've seen a lot of watches these past few days. A lot. But today, we wanted to talk about some of the cool stuff coming out of three brands we're huge fans of at Worn & Wound: MeisterSinger, Omega, and Nomos. For continued coverage of some of Baselworld's best releases, stay tuned to www.wornandwound.com.

After a night of much-needed sleep, we finally hit the ground running on our first full day of Baselworld. We hit up Sinn, Tudor, Seiko, Itay Noy, Oris, Junghans, and Brellum, and I am happy to say they did not disappoint. On this special Baselworld edition of The Worn & Wound Podcast, we talk about some of the highlights of day one. Spoiler warning: there’s a lot to love.

It's March 21, 2018, and we've just arrived in Basel, Switzerland. Naturally, the first thing we did (well, not the first—we did have to drop off our luggage) was beeline straight to Baselworld to get a quick look at some of this year's hottest releases from Tudor, Seiko, and Nomos. So sit back, pour yourself a glass of your favorite drink, and learn why we've nicknamed this year's Baselworld, "Tudorworld." This episode of The Worn & Wound Podcast is brought to you by Hamilton Watch.

A few weeks back, we published the second installment of our video series, "My Watch." The focus of that episode was Jon Gaffney. Jon is a long-standing contributor to the site, often field testing and covering watches that can take a knock or two. But due to the limitations of a 10-minute video, I wanted to get Jon to come on the Podcast to flesh out the story of his collection. Enjoy! This week’s episode is brought to you by Hamilton Watch.

On this week’s episode of The Worn & Wound Podcast, Zach and Ilya talk to Hamilton Watch Company CEO, Sylvain Dolla. We discuss movement development, collection management, limited editions, pulling from their military archives, and so much more.

On this week's episode of The Worn & Wound Podcast, Ilya talks to Michael DiMartini and Justin Kraudel about their brand, Monta.
