This week is all about watches in the movies.  And we also answer your email about the right gift for a wife and mother who is turning forty (and is not happy about it), as well as why some watches are considered "Men's" watches and some are considered "Lady's" watches.

This week we spend a fair amount of time learning about one of the world's great watch manufacturers, International Watch Company, still located in Schaffhausen, Switzerland.

Jody and I answer your email questions about what an old pocket watch might be worth, as well as which watch parts tend to wear out the fasted.  And which parts tend not to wear out at all.

We close the show talking about watch decoration and finish.  And so, Jody and I will do our best to describe engraving, Cotes de Geneve (or Geneva Stripes), Perlage, Tremblage, Anglage... and the many other 'glages craftsmen employ to decorate/finish a timepiece.

This week’s show is all about members of the Academy of Independent Horologists (AHCI).  From Voutilainen to Prescher, Andersen to Dufour, we’ll cover as many of these artists as show time allows. 

Jody’s got a 3-D printed “digital” sundial to tell us about, and of course there’s email for us to answer about why automatic winding watches don’t over-wind, and what’s the best way to dry out your watch that got soaked in the kid’s bathtub.

This week’s watch geek term:  Free Sprung Escapement

This week Jody's got his vintage Seiko 'digital' watch, what with its liquid crystal display.  For me, I'm back to my Ulysse Nardin Maxi Diver, but my trusty AMVOX II is never far from reach.

We spend a few minutes answering your emails about when the cost of service isn't worth the cost of service, and we offer up our best gift suggestion for a retired Naval Officer. This week's brand focus is on the Independent watchmaking team of Felix Baumgartner (no, not the guy who parachuted from space) and Martin Frei, owners of the brand, URWERK.  And it wouldn't be a show if we didn't have a watch geek term to cover... so this week its:  Avante Garde Time Display.




Sit back, relax, we're going to talk about everything from watches to... watches.
