In this week’s episode, our friend Mitch comes back to discuss the finer (and I do mean finer) details of the current Speedmaster and previous generation. We have a lovely conversation at a local brewery, so please excuse the background noise. Cheers! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lB1iSb-2t7A http://instagram.com/menswearmusings https://www.youtu…

After a not so brief summer holiday WE'RE BACK! Spence and Buzz get a portion of the band back together to discuss watches, life, other things. We will try to be more consistent for all of you listener(s) out there! Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

It has been a minute (or at least six weeks) but Spence and the Buzz Man are back! We catch up on TWO new watch additions and other fun items, enjoy and keep all them digits!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

Semi back to our original lineup and original format. Spence and Spangler try to keep it brief and cover some new releases, golf, and other shenanigans. Work's been a lot lately, so just nice to have a quick decompression session. Apologies for some of the technical delays as well, someone's internet wasn't up to the challenge!…

On this week's episode, Spence and Spangler talk about how trading a watch is great in theory, but can be a bit more challenging to execute. We also get Spangler's belated reaction to some of the new watches that have come out of Watches&Wonders. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

Yes, we are riffing on the title from our friends at Spirit of Time. We have the original Buzz though, so it is fair. Spence and Buzz talk about W&W, the VPC type 37 HW, among other shenanigans. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

This week's episode Spence has the opportunity to speak with Fratello writer, and watch brand founder, Thomas Van Straaten to talk about his passion project, VPC watches. It has been a minute since we have had a brand owner on the show, but having spent some time with the VPC Type 37 HW you will see that it has left us thoroughly impressed. Thomas'…

This week Spence and Buzz are trying to do our topic justice. It takes a minute, but we do finally discuss one brand in particular that we think is significantly underrated. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

Well, Spence and Spangler talk some predictions from the crown as well as some SEASONAL stuff from GS. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

Despite not publishing an episode for a couple of weeks, we have the nerve to discuss streaks! Namely, which brand has been on a bit of a tear as of late.द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

In this week's episode Spence, Spangler, and Buzz are joined by our friend Mike Stockton from Fratello watches! We talk about what the future of Universal Geneve under Breitling ownership might look like. We also each build a watch (Spangler's idea) based on components of existing timepieces. A sort of everyman's Moser Swiss Legend concept. Enjoy!…

This episode we riff on the concept of the worst watch in the world. We do this in the vein of the old Top Gear, and the answer(s) may surprise you. We even consider a Rolex making the cut! Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

On this week's episode the gang is all here, and they throw down. We each pick (semi-sarcastic) new year's resolutions for each other. No holds were barred.द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

We would like to wish each of our 12 listeners a very happy and prosperous new year. We had some fun this week recording with our first listener, @motorjon68 at a new haunt. We hope you enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

In this episode we discuss release strategies from watch brands, and why holiday releases might not really be a thing. We hope everyone has a happy and safe holiday season!

This episode we have Spence and Buzz talking about new watches, but also new watch BRAND acquisitions. We talk about the recent Breitling acquisition of Universal Geneve and what it might mean for Watches & Wonders 2024. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

Well you have the OG lineup this week, and just in time for the weekend. We get into some good old fashioned debates on certain topics such as consolidation, Grand Seiko, and a more. There is also a good amount of sidebar conversation, if you like that sort of thing. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

Rumors of our demise have been grossly overstated. We have, however, had a busy November. We do apologize, dear listeners, for leaving you in the lurch for so long. While the time off was busy, there was a new watch added to Spence's collection. We wax poetically about it in this episode. We hope you enjoy!…

This week's episode is a lot of fun. Spence sits down with Nick, from StrapHabit. We talk about the origin of the pink strap collaboration with Brodinkee, watch collecting, and where he wants to take his brand next. This episode was a long time coming, as we have actually met IN PERSON before (crazy right?)! It was great to catch up with Nick and a…

This episode has been teased, and for good reason. We are delighted to have our buddy Chris Sohl back on the show. Chris has been rather busy since we last spoke with him. As an avid diver and watch enthusiast, he has had the opportunity to be at, or in some cases organize, some pretty cool events in which his two passions intersect. Whether it be …

It has been a minute, but we are finally back. Spence and the Buzzman talk new releases from Seiko, Certina, Blancpain, and Zenith. We also have some personal fresh forum finds, and we talk a bit about beauty and objectivity in watches. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

Sundials aside, we talk about some watches that have caught our eye, and a friend who has a new pick up. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

I think we have used this episode title before, but it is fitting. We are coming to you live (almost) on the release of the new Pelagos FXD (not on location though). Keeping it simple for this one, just Spence, Spangler, and Tudor Talk.द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

The title says it all. Two things that were previously unfathomable (well, maybe one, but still) happened recently and we have yet to talk about them. So we talk about them. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

Sad news this week, legendary host of The Price Is Right, Bob Barker, passed away at the age of 99. While we are all saddened by the news, we felt a tribute was in order. So we brought friend of the show @Brodinkee back to play host to a little competition between Spence and Buzz. This was a lot of fun to record, and despite having to do most of th…

This episode is a lot of fun. While Spangler is away, Spence and Buzz play with a fun idea. We didn't even get through all of our thoughts on this, so see if there is a follow up episode! We talk about the evolution of watch tastes within specific watch categories. How one might start out with a Seiko and end up with a Submariner! This was a lot mo…

This episode is the first time we have had brothers as guests on the podcast. Surprising that it has taken us this long, but it was worth the wait. We have local friends Zack and Mitch who both have influenced each other along their collecting journey. Additionally, many of you may have run across Mitch's website, Menswearmusings.com! We get the in…

This week's episode was pitched to us (and Wrist Cheese Radio) by a listener local to us in Cincinnati. We all have watches that fill a gap in our collection, and for that reason, there are other watches we do not own. In some ways, this is the collection we could have had. It is our doppelganger collection. Enjoy!…

In this weekend's episode we cover it all! Fresh Forum Finds, traveling with watches, other nonsense. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

In this episode Spence and Buzz talk the new Tag Heuer Skipper, the new Tissot PRX 35mm, and some other things we have tried on recently. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

This episode reunites the original dynamic duo after some time spent as ships passing in the night. Spence and Spangler are back at it! We are sadly without the third leg of our tripod as Buzzman had to sit this one out. That said, we are getting into some new releases and a unique thread that unites all of them. Something that frustrates us, and w…

Spence is joined once again by an esteemed guest host. Now 5 time participant on the podcast, @ryanwearswatches, joins to talk about watch alternatives. Whether you are looking at a vintage Constellation vs. a Tissot PRX, a smooth bezel Datejust vs. a Tudor Black Bay 36 on jubilee, there are plenty of good watches to discuss. Spence is very intrigu…

This week's episode is a different vibe from the last two weeks because Spence is back! He is flying solo from a W&W perspective, so he had to call in his wingman from the west coast. Matt McD from Spirit of Time joins to talk about all of the new releases, some cool stuff we have tried on, some collection conundrums, and the problem with watches u…

This week we are without Spence again. Do not worry, he will be back. BUT! This means you all are treated to our buddy MotorJon! Sit back, relax, and enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

In this week's episode Buzz and Spangler are sans Spence. So I have no idea what was discussed. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

On this episode we are thrilled to sit down with co-founder Zac and plank owner Alex to discuss their watch collecting journey. What is neat about this episode is how the collector bug spawned something greater, service for those called to serve. If you haven't heard about AWWC (and if you listen to this and other podcasts we know you have) you sho…

For those of you who listen to the Spirit of Time podcast and Wrist Cheese Radio you will know what we are talking about today. The beverage of choice of one James Bond 007. While it might take us a bit to get there, we promise that we will lean in heavy on the cocktails and heavy on the banter. Enjoy!…

This week, we talk bezels! Which bezel is best? Do you prefer timing, time zones, unidirectional, bi-directional, friction, click, or compass? What is your preference? Hit us up!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

This episode has a theme. It is surprising it took us this long to have an episode totally dedicated to the unsung integrated bracelet sport watch from Omega, but we finally did it. This one is for the astronomers who share our opinion. Not only do we each feature 3 constellations (that is 9 for those of you keeping score at home) but there is also…

So Spence is doing the show notes even though he wasn't here for this one. He also hasn't listened to the episode, just enough to ensure the mix was decent. He IS aware, however, of the topic. You ever have an expense pop up? Replacing/patching a tire? Leaky faucet? Garage door opener quit on you? Of course, we call have. As an addict...collector, …

In this week's episode we talk recent local travels, specifically to our neighboring state of Kentucky. Spence and the family took in the sights at Keeneland's Spring Meet while Buzz and a buddy sampled the fares in Frankfort. If you are near the area you will enjoy this one!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

Stay with us here. While this episode is musically inclined, it isn't what you might expect. Given our preference for different musical instruments, Spangler and Spence talk about how that aspect might either influence or shine a light on how our collections have evolved over time. Another fun conversation we hope you enjoy!…

In this week's episode we talk about the concept of a signature watch. While we have collections that speak to what we like, several of us were inspired by one watch associated with an influential figure in our lives. Whether it is a family member, cinematic hero, or public figure, we have one watch that we associate with that person. How does that…

This week we have a special guest, our Man in Geneva, @moorewatches. Our buddy was recently at Watches & Wonders, so of course we had to have him on for a chat. Enjoy!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

Let's see if that was enough clickbait for everyone. This episode is coming a bit earlier than we all expected because two brands might have dropped some teaser videos. We decided it would be good to publish our reactions to them BEFORE the watches drop on Monday. There is some decent analysis of the Rolex teaser, as you can expect. There is also o…

On this episode we discuss our take on watch shows. Do we need them? Are trade shows necessary? Should you be able to purchase watches at them? All of this and more this week!द्वारा Spence, Spangler, & Buzz

We had such a great set of content we had to split it into two episodes. The rest of the gang checks in with their origin stories!

This episode is a two parter, so catch the second one next week! We went to the SPCA Cincinnati with some friends from our local Redbar chapter to have a watch meet, donate and sample a few bottles, and of course talk watches. This was a fun event with a varied group of characters. Some have been on the show in the past, others this is their first …

That's right, we made it to episode 151, the highest proof episode yet! Jokes aside, we have some fun pondering what might come out in the next few weeks at an upcoming event known as Watches & Wonders. Dig the alliteration, almost as if someone else thought of that concept first...

We can't believe we have made it to 150! Three years and 150 episodes. Thank you listeners, thank you guests! We wouldn't be where we are without you. It has been a wild ride, but we count ourselves lucky to be continue to be able to hang out with you on a weekly basis. Here's to another 150!
