Another episode of the Independent Thinking Show for @FifthWrist Radio.

In this @FifthWrist Radio Podcast episode, hosts Roman (@TimesRomanAU) and Adam (@mediumwatch) speak with horological consultant and author Alex Barter (@alexanderbarter). Alex sheds light on his professional journey, from his tenure at Sotheby's in London and Geneva to his role as the Deputy Worldwide Head of Sotheby's Watch Department, before venturing into independent horological consultancy and co-founding BlackBough.

The conversation explores Alex's insights into pocket watch collecting, the importance of preserving horological knowledge, and his book '500 Years, 100 Watches' co-authored with Daryl Schnipper.

Additionally, we discuss the evolving watch market, the impact of digital platforms, and social media's role in horological education are discussed.

Recommendations include following Instagram accounts Vector Animation (@vecthor_animation) and @17jewels.info for animation-driven watch mechanism insights, and Rory McEvoy (@PendulumGeek) for scholarly perspectives.

Shout-outs in this episode to our previous podcast guests: John Reardon (@johnreardon570 and @collectabilityllc), Todd Levin @levinartgroup1 ; Paul Boutros (@pboutros) and Rebecca and Craig Struthers (@strutherswatchmakers).

The episode also suggests checking out BlackBough.co.uk for more on Alex's work and highlights the significance of engaging with horology through books and digital mediums.
