Every time a bunch of watch guys get together and have a few drinks, this old chestnut rears its head: “What if you could only wear one watch?” It’s a question loathed and loved in equal measure. Loved because it forces you to distill your values, tastes and hoarding tendencies into a single piece, which … ContinuedThe post RECOMMENDED READING: The dreaded ‘If you could only wear one watch’ question appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
Two Broke Watch Snobs
This week Mike and Kaz have the first (of most likely many) discussions about the oddly polarizing topic of watch straps in horology. Some folks love swapping out straps/bracelets and some others think it's a sin - what's your stance?
Two Broke Watch Snobs
Pay that $2500 dental bill? Or just get a Grand Seiko Quartz and call it a day? This is just one of the many questions we tackle in this week's episode! Plus Kaz is going strong with his #watchfast with the Casio MDV106 dive watch.
Two Broke Watch Snobs
Mike's done it - his #watchfast is over! The snobs take a look back on Mike's time wearing one (and only one) watch for an entire month. Mike also shares the details on the first watch he wore after the fast! :) And obviously now that the dust has settled, Kaz is thinking of doing a #watchfast as well, but with his fiancee's Casio MDV106... anyone in the #watchfam care to talk him off the ledge?
Two Broke Watch Snobs

Kaz and Mike talk about Quartz watches, their value, precision, durability, and why they make people angry in the pants. Our first quartz watches and what they mean to us as collectors today. Mike’s wife interrupts the watch snobs. We also talk about water resistance, how it's marketed, and share some cool new straps from ToxicNATOs. Kaz eats toxic candy.

Two Broke Watch Snobs
This week the Two Broke Watch Snobs sit down and tuck in on discussing the past and potential future of the Swiss Watch Industries archaic marketing practices. Plus, market over-saturation, layoffs, the quartz crisis and a lot more. MIke also shares his experience field testing the Orion Field Standard - plus Kaz feels the need to bring up his dying, puking bird for some reason. Plus, you know - roaches wearing Rolexes...

Is there room for another watch show? Is there demand? Is Las Vegas the ideal place to bring thousands of watch collectors together for a weekend of horological-themed fun, discussion, and entertainment? The folks behind The Escapement are saying an emphatic yes to all of the above. They're putting on a new watch event in Las Vegas in 2027 running February 5-7, and they believe collectors and enthusiasts are primed for a fresh, in-depth, and upgraded take on the watch meetup. Texas-based Neeshu Hajra is an enthusiastic watch collector who has decades of experience in the events business. Now located in the Middle East, Faheem Khan spent most of his career in the energy industry in London and now writes and curates the popular watch-, philosophy-, and psychology-driven Substack blog ScrewDownCrown. He's also the irreverent voice behind @kingflum on Instagram. Together, they're planning and organizing The Escapement with help from a few other big names in the industry that we dive into during the episode.
