Update: 2023-04-29

Share

Description

Today Pete and John discuss brand icons - the watches that have come to define a brand. Sometimes this is really easy (looking at you Breitling Navitimer) because there's only one, sometimes its hard because a brand is so powerful there are a couple of candidate (Rolex) and sometimes there just isnt a watch that define a brand but perhaps an idea (like Seiko).

So listen to their ideas - feel free to disagree, let us know in the comments and also let us know what brands you'd like us to look at next time.
