Episode Twelve - We are officially one year old, listen to our interview with watch artist Xi Wang, and our Patek deep dive.

Hi Watch Fam,

Thank you for keeping time with us.

• Happy Birthday to us! We are official one year old. 12 episodes talking about some of our favourite people, photos on instagram and of course watches. Stay tuned for bigger plans in 2025 and beyond.
• We are delighted to be joined by a wonderful artist, Xi Wang from Australia - and in the glory of multi-colour with our second episode also on Youtube. She draws and paints high quality watches adding her own artist flare. We discuss what inspired her, she walks us through her drawings, and how challenging it is portraying time through art (31mins 40seconds). Tim & Xi also bond over their shared love of Cartier and maybe the only listeners to a niche ‘cabochon watch shot of the month’ spinoff!
• We talk a little about our visit to the private viewing of Lyon & Turbull’s recent online auction after having Charles Tearle on the show. We then discuss Tim’s recent trip to Time+Tide’s new store in London (4mins 32 seconds)
• The watches we are lusting after this month - Tim selects French grand Laventure’s Transatlantique II GMT with a green dial. Meanwhile, Zac picks the Patek Philippe Gondola with a lapis dial (18mins 42seconds)
• A strong selection for our favourite shots on Instagram - Tim pick out WatchBerger’s quality shot of Tudor Pelagos wrapped around the neck of his guitar. He then selects Ilanwatche’s beautiful macro of a Cartier Santos cabochon. Tim’s third and final choice is from the famous Avocado Vintage Watches’ with a rare Girard Perregaux. Zac went for DadandSon Watches’ watch palm of many vintage watches from Chopard and Cartier to Jaeger and Patek. (23mins 32 seconds)
• Zac and Xi’s winner is Ilanwatches incredible Santos macro. A Timekeeper’s beermat is yours!
• We then deep dive Patek Philippe. Tim has nice things to say about the Calatrava as his grail watch, but needs Zac and Xi’s help on more positive things about a certain Nautilus and Cubitus (1hr 16mins 48 seconds)
