Welcome to the Scottish Watches Podcast – Episode 378! Today we bring you one of our youngest and illustrious watch fans, Curtis Kane. Being a younger collector that has gone deep into the hobby, a journey that we are happy to say we have influenced. He talks about buying, selling, and attending events with a perspective that’s not often heard. One of these events being DWW which led him to rub shoulders with Max Busser, Konstantin Chaykin, our own Dave Sharp, and other heavy weights.
Wristwatch check: Curtis is wearing his quartz Girard Perregaux Laureato 4266 from the 90’s.s Dave has his Tudor Pelagos m25707b-0001. Had to get it from his IG, which is better than his usual modus operandi of not posting or sending it to me.Rikki is wearing the Zodiac Super Sea Wolf 53 Compression automatic ZO9286
What color is this? Oris Propilot X Calibre-400/01-400-7778-7158-07-7-20-01 Curtis’s watch journey: The first watch he remembers was a Breitling AirWolf, worn by his dad. With that in mind, he pulled the trigger on the Breitling AirWolf Raven in early 2020. After starting to watch Adrian’s channel he got bit by the Rolex bug. He sold the AirWolf and acquired the Rolex Oyster Perpetual m126000 But this is no longer in the collection because it was sold to fund his purchase of the Rolex Explorer m124270 Curtis at DWW. The watch named after Curtis – Breitling SUPER AVI B04 CHRONOGRAPH GMT 46 CURTISS WARHAWK1 Moving from his purple suit to the purple dial Studio Underdog Eggplant that he was lucky enough to get after refreshing the website on three devices.Dave’s Watermelon.
