Welcome to the Scottish Watches podcast, episode 291! Wanting to get the perspective from someone who was at Geneva Watch Days, we’ve brought Pietro on to chat about his travel to Switzerland to spotlight releases from independents that he loves so much, such as Louis Erard, De Bethune, Arnold & Son, Greubel Forsey, and Czapek.
Not from GWD, we have releases from Seiko, Nodus, nice-looking dials on both, and a new value-packed piece from Horage in their brand new Supersede model, named after Rikki’s nut juice.
One of the great traits of the watch community is wanting to support good causes. In recognition of the 20 year anniversary of 9/11, William Wood is holding an auction of a piece unique, the 9/11 Time For Heroes Watch (William Wood Watches: Products – Tunnel to Towers 9/11 Watch – William Wood Watches), with all proceeds being donated to Tunnel to Towers foundation, there are 21 hours to go, from the time of writing this, so you still have the opportunity to support this cause. We recommend listening to our conversation with them (Scottish Watches Podcast #261 : Fire Fighter Heritage with William Wood Watches – Scottish Watches) to see how there’s no better brand to do something like this.

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.
