Scottish Watches Podcast #711 : What Went On In Hong Kong! New Watches And Much More
Description
Welcome to the Scottish Watches Podcast Episode 711! While some of us were on familiar ground in Geneva, our friend and roving reporter Barbara Palumbo was on assignment in Hong Kong at the Clock and Watch Fair.
With entire floors dedicated to movement makers like Miyota and Ronda, dial specialists, and strap producers, alongside a growing “Salon de Time” section showcasing finished watches from microbrands and independents. Barbara takes us inside the booths of familiar names like Spinnaker, Avi-8, plus bold newcomers like No Identity, who are pushing daring “wonky” riffs on icons like the Daytona and Aquanaut, and Tsar Bomba, who showed off a tonneau-shaped case system where you can swap the strap, crown, and bezel in under a minute.
Additionally, we’ll hear about the big-picture industry talks, which will cover tariffs, the rise of pre-owned watches, and the continuing strength of Asian markets, all of which hint at how watchmaking is shifting globally.
