Time on Screen returns this week with an all new episode on the movie this podcast was literally made for: Back to the Future. Longtime readers and listeners might recall that in the summer of 2020 we recorded an episode of the podcast on this very filmthat laid the groundwork for what would eventually become Time on Screen. If there was an ever a movie worth dipping into for a second time, it’s Back to the Future. More than that, we have good reason to. It’s back in theaters for its big 40th anniversary, and Casio even released a special watch to celebrate. This episode features Zach Kazan as host, and he’s joined by Blake Malin and Kyle Snarr to dig into why this film resonates so strongly across generations 40 years after its initial release. Much of the conversation is centered on personal experiences with the movie, including early memories of seeing it in childhood. And, of course, we talk about the watches (and clocks!) seen throughout.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan welcomes Zach Weiss and Liam O’Donnell to the podcast to discuss a topic we’ve been thinking about privately for a while and have heard grumblings about elsewhere. Today we’re asking a big question: is the watch industry out of ideas? We’ve all felt it in one way or another. There’s a sense among certain enthusiasts that brands are repeating themselves, churning out conservative products that are proven sellers at the expense of innovating. But is that an insidery point of view? Maybe “innovation” isn’t exactly what this centuries old industry is really about? We chat about how some brands play it safe, constantly trying to recapture the past (and why that’s appealing to a lot of us) and how others are a little more daring, and how that impacts the entire industry.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach welcomes Griffin Bartsch back to the Worn & Wound podcast for a new entry in our Collection Update series. Griffin picked up an IWC Mark XX earlier this year, and in this conversation he explains why that was the right watch for him at this particular moment and how he’s been living with it over the past several months as a daily driver. And Zach picked up a new watch from Typsim, the Seattle based indie known for their unique lume compound and true gilt dials. The Guide XLH, the watch Zach couldn’t resist at Windup, has a funky look to it that’s just a little strange, which kind of fits in exactly with what he’s been interested in lately. Before Griffin and Zach chat about their new watches, they spend a bit of time recapping the Windup Watch Fair in New York City, the watches they enjoyed from the show, and, yes, the lines to get in the door. Be sure to check back here soon for more from the New York City edition of Windup, including videos of all the panels from Windup weekend.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan welcomes Garrett Jones and Ricardo Sime to the show to talk about potential alternatives to some of the most popular luxury watches. This idea, over the years, has proven to be one of the central questions and debates among watch enthusiasts. If you started your watch journey on the forums before Instagram was the central hub of the watch community, you no doubt came across countless threads asking for advice on alternatives to the most iconic (and often expensive) luxury watches. We look at two watches, the Rolex Submariner and the Cartier Tank, and come up with a handful of alternatives for each. We also discuss the merits of thinking about collecting in this way, and if an alternative can ever really scratch the itch for the “real” thing. We’d love to know your thoughts. Have you ever picked up one watch as an alternative to another? What do you think of our picks as substitutes for the Tank and Submariner? Let us know in the comments or find us on Instagram and let us know.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan welcomes Hamza Masood back to the podcast. Hamza Masood is Head of Partnerships at WatchCharts, a website whose mission is to provide as much pricing data and transparency as possible to the watch buying public and the larger watch industry. It’s a truly invaluable resource, and we think you should bookmark it and refer to it whenever you find yourself shopping for a new or pre-owned watch. In this episode we get a market update from Hamza and a broad overview of the state of the pre-owned watch world, including a few notable surprises. Hamza also tells us about his latest project, the American Watchmaking Directory. Hamza has always had an interest in American watchmaking and the state of the industry here, and the American Watchmaking Directory is a bit of a passion project that has been in the works for some time. It seeks to document as many American watch brands as possible, and will eventually also list suppliers and manufacturers of other watch components based in America as well. The idea is that it can be a place not just for collectors and enthusiasts to research American watchmaking, but to connect brands with each other and suppliers so they might collaborate more easily.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

What better way to celebrate the beginning of fall than with our monthly Q&A podcast? This week, Zach welcomes Kat, Garrett, and Devin to the podcast to once again field questions from our audience, submitted via our Worn & Wound+ Slack channel as well as Instagram and YouTube. The questions were great this month, covering a wide range of topics on everything from our fantasy watch travel destinations to our personal wallet preferences and other EDC topics. The team also weighs on the age old question: dive watch with a GMT bezel, or GMT with a diver bezel?

Time on Screen returns this week with an all new episode about one of the most acclaimed movies of its era, Paul Thomas Anderson’s There Will Be Blood. When it arrived in 2007, There Will Be Blood was hailed as a masterpiece almost immediately, and its stature has only grown since then. With a new PTA movie, One Battle After Another, now just days away from release, we thought now would be a great time to revisit his magnum opus. Zach Kazan is joined by Kat Shoulders and Liam O’Donnell for this episode, and together they discuss their initial reactions to the film when they first saw it, how they’ve grown with the movie over the years, and the complex themes and ideas that Anderson is playing with in TWBB. They also spend some time discussing the incredible Daniel Day-Lewis performance at the center of the film, and what makes him and this role in particular so special. Finally, Zach, Kat, and Liam each pick their personal top three PTA movies.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan puts Kat Shoulders and Liam O’Donnell through an excruciating thought experiment: could we simplify our watch ownership to a one watch collection? It seems like a truly exotic concept when you work in the watch industry or are otherwise deep into the hobby, but it’s also an idea that can help focus what’s really important to us in a watch. Zach, Kat, and Liam each pick a watch that could potentially be a fabled “one watch” and also discuss the practical and theoretical concerns about owning a single watch when we’re all so accustomed to a wider variety. Also in this episode, Liam updates us on a recent trip he took with Tudor (a brand that factors into our one watch collection discussion in a major way). Liam was recently in Canada with Tudor and their cycling team for an inside look at a major cycling race. Keep your eyes on Worn & Wound for more coverage of that event very soon.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re talking all things Geneva Watch Days 2025. Zach Kazan is joined by Zach Weiss and Devin Pennypacker to recap the event and the most interesting watches that came out of it. Before getting into the watches themselves, the group talks about their impressions of the event itself and its relative importance on the watch industry calendar. This was Zach W’s first time at Geneva Watch Days (and Zach K’s second), and the show itself is rapidly changing, so there’s a lot to talk about on this front. While the releases at Geneva Watch Days aren’t as splashy as the novelties you’ll find at Watches & Wonders, there are still plenty of gems to be found, the event represents a great opportunity for small brands to get a ton of attention. That was really the case this year, as you’ll hear Zach and Zach that some of the watches that most impressed them came from true indies (at all price points), like Behrens and Dennison. Let us know what you thought of this year’s crop of Geneva Watch Days releases in the comments below.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders welcome Elodie Townsend, one of Worn & Wound’s newest contributors. Elodie is a watch enthusiast based in San Francisco, and has a deep appreciation for all kinds of timepieces, particularly funky tool watches. In this episode, we chat about how Elodie was introduced to watch collecting and recent watches she’s admired. Elodie is also a longtime car enthusiast, and much of the conversation here focuses on the many ways these hobbies overlap.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

In this episode of Changing Gears, host Kat Shoulders sits down with Betty Van of Switch and Click, the creator behind one of the most popular YouTube channels in the mechanical keyboard space along with W&W co-founders Blake Malin and Zach Weiss. The W&W team and Betty kick things off with a wrist check and keyboard check before diving into the story of how Switch and Click began, the inspiration behind the channel, and the moment Betty realized it could turn into something much bigger than a hobby. They explore what makes gear so addictive, from the sensory joy of clicks and textures to the way personal objects can become an extension of who we are.Betty shares her favorite discoveries in the keyboard world, her tips for anyone buying their first board, and how she balances making in-depth content that’s still approachable for beginners. The conversation also covers building community, staying authentic in a niche that can sometimes feel intimidating, and Betty’s newest passion: watches.Whether you’re a seasoned keyboard builder, a gear enthusiast, or just curious about what makes these objects so fascinating, this episode is full of insights, laughs, and inspiration.We hope you like this new podcast format and really appreciate all the listeners!

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, it’s another round of listener Q&A. Zach is joined by Kat Shoulders and Garrett Jones as they field questions from our Worn & Wound+ Slack channel and YouTube audience. As always, the questions are great and a huge range of topics are covered, from the concept of luxury field watches to the brands we most associate with our colleagues. Thanks to everyone who submitted a question for this episode! If your question wasn’t answered in this episode, we’ll be back next month with a new Q&A episode and another opportunity to pose questions to members of the Worn & Wound team. Before we get into the Q&A, we also chat about some recent new releases from Jack Mason and Holthinrichs.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach is joined by Andy Green and Felix Scholz, hosts of OT: The Podcast. Over the last several years, Felix and Andy have developed OT into one of the top watch podcasts out there with a series of fantastic interviews with watch industry insiders, their own great rapport and sense of humor, and an enthusiastic community of fans (be sure to check out their Discord here). The last time Felix and Andy came on the Worn & Wound podcast, they had just released their first (and so far only) collaborative watch with anOrdain, and on this episode they spend some time reflecting on that experience and teasing what might be ahead. They also discuss the unique nature of watch enthusiasm in their native Australia, the appeal of the Apple Watch, how their attitude towards press trips has changed as the years pass, and some of their favorite releases from the year so.

On the podcast this week, Zach Kazan welcomes Devin Pennypacker to discuss a topic that comes up in the real life conversations of watch enthusiasts fairly often: how do you start a collection? When you’re the watch collector in a group of non-collectors, it’s something that’s inevitably asked from time to time by those who are curious about the hobby. Starting a collection, or entering the hobby at any level, is a very different proposition in 2025 than at any other time we can remember, so Zach and Devin provide some advice based on the current state of the watch world. They discuss everything from how to find your specific niche community within the larger watch world, how to filter out all the noise from social media, and of course they offer some suggestions for specific watches and brands to look at if you’re just getting started. Before all of that, Zach and Devin also run through some of the notable recent releases from the last week, including a MoonSwatch that has generated no shortage of hot takes, and a Timex pulled from the archives. And stay tuned until the end of the episode for a new round of cultural recommendations. We’d love to hear from you about the best ways to enter the hobby in 2025. What advice would you give to someone with a burgeoning interest in watches that Zach and Devin didn’t cover?

Time on Screen returns this week with an all new episode. In this episode, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders break down The Life of Chuck, the latest from Mike Flanagan, a favorite filmmaker among the Worn & Wound crew. The Life of Chuck is an adaptation of a Stephen King novella that is somewhat hard to describe. It follows the life of a single character through important stages of his life, with a story told in an extremely unconventional way, and is one of those movies that you’ll want to discuss and dissect as soon as you get out of the theater. It’s also a big left turn for Flanagan away from the horror genre, and feels like a much more personal statement. In this conversation, Zach and Kat break down the movie’s structure and its key themes and scenes, and also rank their top three Mike Flanagan projects. They also talk about the importance of time as its portrayed in this movie, both in the way the story is told, and through a perfectly delivered Flanagan monologue that repurposes Carl Sagan’s famous “Cosmic Calendar” principle.

This week on the podcast, Kat Shoulders is chatting with Worn & Wound contributor and photographer Liam O’Donnell. Liam and Kat go way back, and this is a really fun conversation about Liam’s start in the hobby, how he broke into working in the industry through the NYC watch community, and his own collection. There’s also, of course, plenty of photography talk, as Liam fields questions from the Worn & Community. Liam and Kat also discuss some of Liam’s recent work for Worn & Wound, including last week’s piece on Christopher Ward’s partnership with the Everton Football Club and his experience taking in an F1 weekend in Miami with IWC.

This week on the podcast, we’re returning to a favorite topic: hot takes! We asked our communities on Instagram, YouTube, and our Worn & Wound+ Slack channel to send us their spiciest takes on the watch world so we could react to them and they absolutely did not disappoint. And, of course, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders have some takes of their own. Topics covered include the Royal Oak, the very premise of the “GADA” watch, micro-adjustable clasps, Rolex wait lists, and a whole lot more. We had so many submissions there was no way to get through them all, so let us know in the comments what your hottest watch related take is, and we’ll add it to the list and react to it in a future episode.
