The SJX Podcast

On episode 10 of the SJX Podcast, SJX and Brandon Moore discuss the highlights and hands-on impressions from Geneva Watch Days, including the Greubel Forsey QP Balancier, Lange 1815 Tourbillon Black Enamel, Gérald Genta's new Minute Repeater, and the latest perpetual calendars from Audemars Piguet.We also discuss the significance of Tag Heuer's carbon hairsprings; after a short-lived launch in 2019, the brand has taken a mulligan and relaunched this technology with a key difference that might make carbon hairsprings a real alternative to silicon.Show Notes:3:20 - Berneron Quantième Annuel6:50 - Ferdinand Berthoud Naissance d’une Montre 38:30 - Greubel Forsey QP Balancier12:50 - Tag Heuer carbon hairsprings19:50 - Gérald Genta's new Minute Repeater24:45 - Lange 1815 Tourbillon Black Enamel27:30 - Roger Smith Series 631:20 - New perpetual calendars from Audemars Piguet Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to the inaugural episode of the SJX Podcast. Here we will be having in-depth conversations with a variety of people from the very heart of the industry, discussing the topics that really matter. Here we are sitting down with Adel Al Rahmani, the Founder of Dubai Watch Club, and Syed Hamed Hosseini, a collector based in Dubai. Both take extremely different approaches when it comes to their personal collections, and listening to them talk about the reasoning behind each is not only fascinating, but sheds light on collecting as a whole in this industry. Covering topics such as the safety of wearing highly recognisable timepieces in European cities, and what it's like trying to buy from certain brands when you're not at the top of their list. We hope you enjoy the half hour conversation below.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
