Scottish Watches Podcast #236 : Catching Up With Barbara And Five Years of Whats On Her Wrist
Welcome to the Scottish Watches podcast and a very special episode on International Women’s Day, episode 236.
You probably expected this guest and yes, Barbara (@whatsonherwrist) joins Rikki today not only because it is International Women’s Day, but because What’s On Her Wrist is turning 5 today 🙂
We go into how Barbara got interested in watch journalism, the origins of her blog, the people who helped her, and how she has blazed her own path through determination and hard work. We also get her opinion on how the watch industry has changed and on to some more hot topics of the day.

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.
