Episode 47: Mike Stockton From Fratello is Back!

Our apologies for the delay in uploading the episode, but one of us had to learn how to edit as Spangler is in a cabin that ADVERTISED WIFI but did not actually have wifi.

Anyway, our buddy Mike from Fratello sits down with Spence and Buzz to talk about a great number of topics. Of course we had to start with the new FratellOris that was released (and is on Spence's wrist for the episode) as it was inspired by Mike's mod of two watches that Oris released in 2017 and 2018. Mike talks about the process for his original modification, the design of the new watch, and why Fratello really enjoyed working with Oris on this piece.

From there, we talk about the various watch trends we have seen this year, what we liked, and what we were luke warm on. Oris, Omega, Rolex, and Breitling had some killer releases this year, and we hope this can continue.

Lastly, we talked about what 2021 may hold for watch fairs, meetings, releases, and sales. In person, large scale, events might not be a thing for the first half of 2021, but brands seemed to figure out how to release products during 2020, so we hope that once we can all get together again safely it will make for an exciting time!

Oh, and we also talked a little bit about the new Speedmaster, as one does when you have one of the Fratelli on! We are sure you will enjoy this one!
