Description


Welcome to the Scottish Watches Podcast 720! The updated Omega Speedmaster “Grey Side of the Moon” sparks debate, with impressive hand-wound movement and slimmer proportions, but a price hike that raises eyebrows. Czapek’s latest Antarctic model, with its translucent enamel dial, earns high praise for craftsmanship and originality, while Ming’s 3D-printed titanium bracelet receives credit for pushing innovation into new territory. The 1980s Seiko Astronaut reissue is both nostalgic and fun, but many feel the £400-plus price tag stretches the appeal. Chloe Chan’s debut Minim collection, on the other hand, impresses with elegant design and thoughtful East–West detailing. Formex’s new 41 mm Essence hits that Goldilocks sweet spot, and British indie Moles & Co. gets attention for offering sharp design and a solid movement at an accessible price.
