The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep 343: Dave Brailsford, Co-Founder of Garrick Watchmakers
Over the years, Garrick Watchmakers has become one of our favorite independent brands. Their distinct design language draws on the heritage of classic British watchmaking, and the watches themselves are almost entirely bespoke. Truly, each one is made to order, and clients have enormous latitude in picking out nearly every detail. Dave Brailsford is Garrick’s cofounder and joins Zach Weiss and Zach Kazan in this episode of the Worn & Wound podcast to discuss Garrick’s history, the unique challenges of running a brand where the client has such a large role in the decision making process, and painstaking production process that sees Garrick making a huge amount of each watch in-house. To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep 341: Watches & Wonders Q&A
This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are once again turning to our Worn & Wound+ community to answer your questions. This week, they’re focused specifically on Watches & Wonders, which is less than two weeks away, which means that we are (hopefully) in the last stages of planning for the big show. Questions, as you’d expect, cover a variety of topics, from the food in Geneva, to the gear we’re bringing, and, of course, all of that swag that brands hand out at the show.This episode is sponsored by Sternglas and their new Lumatic watch. Answering the community’s call, it is the first Sternglas to have dual-tone Luminova. It is an automatic watch that pushes the Bauhaus design to its minimalist limits. It’s the first Sternglas with the Miyota 8315 movement and two different Luminova colors. This new model has a satin-finished light blue dial with glowing white 3D shaded numerals and orange glowing geometric indexes. The movement features a 60-hour power reserve, quick setting date, stop seconds and 21 jewels. The case is 38mm in diameter and 12mm thick and has a water resistance of 50 meters. The display case back exhibits the movement’s blued screws, striped finishing, and skeletonized rotor.

The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep 340: New Watches from Seiko and Omega, and Our Favorites Under $1,000
This week on the podcast, Zach and Kat are joined by Ed Jelley to chat about two of the biggest watch releases of the year so far: new divers from Seiko and a brand new white dialed Speedmaster Professional from Omega. These new watches generated a lot of buzz when they were unveiled within days of each other recently, and with Ed owning both a Speedy Pro and a prior version of the Seiko 62MAS influenced diver unveiled recently, we knew we had to get his take on both. Later, Zach, Kat, and Ed discuss their favorite watches under $1,000, inspired by a recent feature on the website. As Ed points out, this is a great time to have $1,000 to spend on a watch, with an unending variety of styles to choose from. The group talks through some of their favorites from Brew, Hamilton, Lorier, Doxa, and more.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.
