Love 'n Watches

This show is once again all about you guys, our wonderful listeners. This time we chat with @allinhermovements, a watch collecting coupe from the East Coast. And what a great time we had! Lots of laughs and lots of things in common made this listener spotlight especially fun. We hope you enjoy the show, and as always don't forget to follow us on Instagram at @lovenwatches, and check out our YouTube channel as well. And you can follow the ladies on IG @allinhermovements, or search for them on YouTube. -RR & PG Stock Media provided by GrantTregellasMusic / Pond5

This week we sit down with our good friend Randy Begotka from our local Rolex AD here in Northern California, DeVons Jewelers. DeVons is getting ready to open a brand new store in their Roseville location, complete with an entire dedicated Rolex section. They're also adding Tudor to the lineup which is very exciting for fans of the brand up here in this neck of the woods. Follow us as well as DeVons on their social media channels for the most up-to-date info on opening day, which should be happening the week of October 26th. We hope you enjoy the show! -RR & PG DeVons Website: https://www.devonsjewelers.com DeVons IG: https://www.instagram.com/devonsjewelers/ DeVons Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/devonsjewelers You can find the Love 'N Watches Podcast on all popular Podcasting platforms including Spotify, Amazon Music, and YouTube.

In this week's episode we're bringing back a classic with another installment of What's In The Collection. These are some of our most popular episodes and they're fun for us too since we get to reconnect with pieces that maybe haven't seen much wrist time lately. We also talk about Oris' new Calibre 400 movement just announced this morning, along with Formex's latest release. And be warned, you all might get a taste of Perpetual Girl's Valley Girl voice today!

Our good friend Rob Caplan from Topper Jewelers joins the show today to talk about their brand new Oris Divers Sixty Five Topper Maxi Edition. The release is today, Friday October 9th, 2020 and the watch is a real stunner. Rob and Topper are just going from strength to strength with their limited releases and this one is no different. Limited to 165 pieces we suspect it will sell out in no time! It was a blast from the past for us talking about the old Coyote Point Museum, now known as CuriOdyssey, where a large percentage of the proceeds from the new watch will be headed.

In this episode we have a great chat with Vortic Watches co-founder R.T. Custer. Vortic launched its very first watch back in 2014 on Kickstarter, and despite dealing with a five year lawsuit which the guys just recently won, they've literally gone from strength to strength in the last six years. Not only are they bringing classic American pocket watch movements back to life in a very cool looking wrist watch format, but they also have an amazing program that raises money for our country's military veterans. As a matter of fact, R.T. actually reveals an upcoming addition to that very special program on this show!

Well this one's been in the making for quite awhile now folks, and after a false start a couple of weeks ago due to our horrific rural Internet service we were finally able to get on the phone with Beth Haddad and V.J. Geronimo of Oris North America. Beth is the West Coast Regional Sales Manager and V.J. is the North American CEO for the brand. Ranch Racer had the privilege of meeting Beth a couple of years ago when she joined our local Sacramento RedBar group for one of our GTGs to show us their latest offerings. VJ then came out with Beth a few months ago to again treat the group to some amazing watches from the brand. Finally, Beth helped RR surprise PG last week with an Oris Aquis Date 36mm! We had a great time speaking with Beth and VJ. We talked about the history of the brand and all of the incredible charitable work that Oris is known for, and they also announced some very exciting things coming up just around the corner! If you're a fan of the brand, and even if you're not, this isn't an episode you

It's been more than a year since we've chatted with our friends Stephen and Josh over at Swiss Watch Company, and given that they're gearing up for a new release on Kickstarter we figured it'd be a good time to bring them back. We spent about an hour catching up with the guys, and as always it just wasn't enough time but we're quite excited about their new SWC Sport watch release on Kickstarter beginning on August 10th. We hope you enjoy the show! As always don't forget to follow us on Instagram at @lovenwatches, and check out our YouTube channel as well. -RR & PG Stock Media provided by GrantTregellasMusic / Pond5

We had such a great time doing our first Love 'N Our Listeners spotlight and had such a fantastic response from so many of you wanting to be on the show that we decided to get another one out there ASAP. In this Spotlight you'll meet Dr. Kibwe Weaver, one of our front line responders in the fight against the global pandemic and an avid watch collector. Dr. Weaver's collection consists mainly of sports oriented pieces, with a specific focus on divers. He's got everything from Invicta to Tudor and so much more. We love the breadth of the collection and had a great time chatting not only about watches but flying, cars, and anything else we had in common with the doc. You can follow Kibwe on Instangram at doc_todotundu. His watch photography is second to none so do yourself a favor and check out his feed.

In this episode we welcome to the show Raphael and Markus from Formex Watches. While not exactly a new brand, Formex has flown somewhat under the radar since its founding in the late nineties. Under new leadership for the last several years the Swiss brand, known for its suspended case design and augmented reality app, is experiencing a resurgence with its new Essence collection. Ranch Racer recently had the opportunity to go hands-on with the Essence and was so impressed we decided we needed to have the guys on the show to talk about the brand and where they're headed. We hope you enjoy the show as much as we enjoyed recording it. Formex is most definitely a brand to watch in the coming years.

Ok #watchfam, this is one we've been wanting to bring to you for A LONG time now. We were finally able to get schedules squared away and sit down with our friend Jared Payne from Buying On Time. We've actually purchased multiple pieces from Jared that remain in our collection today. If you're into vintage watches and you're not following @buyingontime on Instagram, well, you're seriously missing out! Jared isn't one of those fly-by-night "vintage watch dealers" that pop up all the time on social media flipping "rare" Rolexes, but a genuine lover of all things vintage, including watches. He specializes in vintage American pieces from classic brands like Bulova, Benrus, Wittnauer, Elgin, Hamilton, and others. Plus he's just a genuinely good guy! We sincerely hope you all enjoy the show.

Well here we are watchfam. Most of us stuck in our homes wondering when the heck we'll be let out again, free only to buy groceries put gas in the family wagon, or if we're lucky take a quick walk around the block.

Join us as we discuss all kinds of fun stuff you can do with your watch hobby while waiting for release. Whether it's swapping straps, binge listening to watch related Podcasts, or sitting down with a good watch book, we've got the answers! Hope you all enjoy the show.

Took a bit of a break again but the dynamic duo are back once again. In this episode we discuss the effects of Covid-19 on the watch industry, Seiko's new special edition Prospex drivers hitting the pricing stratosphere, and whether or not female collectors have yet to be represented equally alongside their male brethren in the watch world. Ranchracer also had a chance to get to the track again so that always means he'll be in a relatively good mood, but on the flip side he has to get down on his hands and knees and BEG PG's forgiveness for blowing Valentine's Day this year. Trust me, you DON'T want to miss this. Hope you all enjoy the show.

This week's episode is a bit seat-of-the-pants as we wanted to get one out prior to the end of the SWC watch giveaway this evening at midnight.

This week we had the privilege of speaking with Steve and Josh Roemer from the Swiss Watch Company. SWC was actually formed more than 10 years ago and got their start producing watches for the US Military. Over the years Steve has also done design and production consulting for other well known brands, which followed a career in Switzerland with little company called the Swatch Group. Josh is his Dad's partner in crime and handles all of the marketing and social media stuff for the brand. We had a blast talking to the guys and we hope you enjoy the interview. Oh, and we might have also introduced a seriously cool upcoming giveaway. Hope you all enjoy the show.

After dealing with all kinds of crazy stuff over the last three months, and some honest soul searching about the show and whether or not to continue, the good news is that we're definitely pressing on! We're re-engergized and super excited to continue to deliver our own unique view of the watch collecting world. In today's comeback episode we talk about various ways to fund the show, diving into some topics that are sometimes difficult to discuss like social media, advertising, etc. At the end of the day our intent is to share with you, our loyal listeners, where we intend to take the show and it's all good. Get ready for a fun ride! Along with the somewhat controversial topic of monetization, we then go on to discuss some of the exciting stuff we have in store for you such as more guests and giveaways, an upcoming website redesign, and Love 'N Watches swag! Hope you all enjoy the show. Don't forget to follow us on Instagram at @lovenwatches, and check out our YouTube channel as well. - RR & PG Stock Med

This week RR and PG talk about their favorite quartz watches. Some are in the collection, some are on the wish list, but all come highly recommended by the LNW team. We also talk about the hysteria surrounding the release of the NON-LIMITED EDITION Q Timex and offer our sympathies to astronaut Buzz Aldrin who's, ahem, derriere ended up on the 9 o'clock sub-dial of the new Omega stainless steel Speedmaster 50th Anniversary watch. Oops! Someone in Omega's design department might be hanging from the tree outside their Biel/Bienne headquarters this week. Hope you all enjoy the show.
