Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Scottish Watches podcast 223. Today’s podcast is the first recorded episode of Rick in 2021, and it’s just like old times. You don’t need to listen closely to the episode to understand that the watch content has gone down from last week. Just like before Rikki and Rick broke up because of Star Wars v Star Trek, we talk movies from Star Wars, Star Trek, DC, and others in between. It has also been a long time since we heard computer noises and lowed typing, well its all come back. Rick also brings to us a surprisingly story in how oranges and Swiss Made have something in common. We also revisit Rikki’s love life and how he showed to be a true Scotsman when buying his girlfriend, a gift. All the things you would expect from a Scottish Watches episode. The watch content of this episode involves the new watches and Rikki’s wish list for a new watch.

Important episodes where we especially missed Rick:
The talk with Diana the designer of the illustrations in our swatch watch. http://www.scottishwatches.co.uk/2020/12/23/scottish-watches-podcast-215-our-brand-new-swatch-x-scottish-watches-limited-edition-news/
The commemoration of our second birthday, not with Rick, but with Adrian and Dave, two of his possible replacements. http://www.scottishwatches.co.uk/2021/01/11/scottish-watches-podcast-220-happy-2nd-birthday-to-us-with-adrian-from-bark-jack/
Rick is looking for the Zenith Defy Classic Black Ceramic Skeleton Swiss Beats edition and if you know where to find one, email us at info@schottishwatches.co.uk or on our Instagram @scottishwatches.
Fist Scottish watches live, on the Scottish Watch YouTube channel, of the new year where we discuss our favorite moments from the past two years and the possible watch Rikki might get to celebrate the podcasts two-year anniversary.

Latest episode of Time of the Week with Sam, Sam and not Sam, Lucy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQXE2xGZtg4
Wristwatch check:
None of them are wearing anything. Rick is wearing his apple watch but that is just the thing that is keeping someone from not winning the dead pole. But we can all imagine hem in the fields or desk diving with his Paneri.
We are doing a giveaway in collaboration with Jorge Bamford from Bamford Watches, the details aren’t all set so we might announce the winner when on our third birthday. Follow @bamfordwatchdepartment and us to know wen the giveaway is taking place. We do know that it well be a Bamford Mayfair. More colorways on the Bamford website.
New G-shocks
GMWB5000RD-4 GM6900CX-4
The variant of these watches that we have.
Duke of Wellington statue and the drawing done by Diana. No extra head to be seen. Perhaps in a few years the watch well increase in price just like the Rolexes that have the wrong set of hands and other quality control issues

New H Moser, Endeavour Minute Repeater.
Listen to the 1st world problem that plagues those who buy Moser’s without much thought. If only we could all do that. http://www.scottishwatches.co.uk/2020/12/31/scottish-watches-podcast-217-new-years-eve-special-with-max-busser-of-mbf/

It would be nice if Katelen was here to discuss how one speed master has 100 meter water resistance and the other only 50 meters. Go and listen to the show we had with her discussing the new Omega Speedmaster.
Thank you for listening, follow us on our social media and YouTube channels. Goodbye
Got into the horological hobby only a few short years ago; but got, as us Scots like to say, “baw deep” pretty quickly. Thanks to buying a lemon of a Rolex he spent hours researching why his watch wasn’t working and along the way gained an interest in what makes them tick. He now runs the Scottish Watches website and keeps cohort Rick in check on the twice weekly Scottish Watches podcast.
