This week we welcome watch enthusiast and fellow podcast Ryan Caldera to the show, where we discuss the motivating factors behind collecting, and how they have shaped our experiences within other enthusiast spaces. Ryan co-hosts a podcast called You Don't Even Know, which explores hidden worlds both large and small, from the police, to the Dunning-Kruger effect, all with a measured helping of humor along the way (with a shout out to co-host Alexis). Join us in this episode about watches, collecting, mechanical keyboards, and more.

Zenith has already had an exciting 2024, with the release of a titanium Chronomaster Sport, and a full calendar Chronomaster Original - all before Watches & Wonders. Zenith takes a unique approach to preserving their heritage alongside their modern collections, and joining us to discuss this task is the brand’s Head of Heritage, Laurence Bodenmann. In this episode, Laurance gives us a deep dive on Zenith’s history, with a few inspiring stories along the way.
Zenith has recently welcomed a new CEO, Benoit de Clerck who is replacing the outgoing Julien Tornare (who is heading over to TAG Heuer). How this will affect their approach remains to be seen, but most importantly, people like Bodemann remain serving as the foundation to their modern approach to preserving their history.

In this episode of The Deep Track Podcast, we welcome Dana Li of Tell the Time to discuss the trends and cultural moments of 2023 that still have weight. We reflect on a hectic year of releases, news, growth in some areas, decline in others, and a few hidden gems we think are worth a second look. This past year has been a monumental one in many ways, thanks to a market that's settling back into normalcy after the surge of the Covid era. But it's not all doom and gloom, as we find plenty of things to be excited about as we look ahead to 2024.
