Podcast

Horological bar-talk at its finest.


Ep. 80 – Giveaways, Watch Marketing, and the Most Legendary Wrist Check Ever

Join the guys for one of the most significant moments in TBWS history. Kaz finally bit the bullet and snagged a clean, crispy Slava medical! He gives us an account of what it was like purchasing the watch and how it feels now that the hunt is finally over. Meanwhile, Mike is still enjoying one of his quartz favorites and the snobs discuss one of the finer things in life… high-end sweatpants, of course.

Ep. 79 – Watch Lust 2018

This week the guys take some time to candidly share the watches they’re actually considering as purchases for 2018. The wrist check is also a fun one, as both of the snobs share some old time favorites and a very particular watch that hasn’t been on the show for some time. Also, a microbrand offering a 7750 chronograph for under โ‚ฌ1,000? Yeah, you bet your ass that made it’s way into the discussion.

Ep. 78 – The Vostok Amphibia… That’s What The Whole Show Is About

Alright, guys – this is the big one. We’ve been threatening this episode for a while – this week’s show is entirely dedicated to the Vostok Amphibia. We discuss the history of the piece and just how much impact it had in Russia during it’s creation in 1967. Plus, Kaz breaks down some notable versions of the Amphibia and reveals some of his Vostok grail pieces. This show’s got history, movement geekery, sex-talk, and a whole lot more.

Ep. #75 – Talking Vintage Military Watches With @danc21cy

Get the scoop on what it’s like to dive head first into military watch collecting. The Snobs are educated by Dan (@danc21cy) and explore the deep and rewarding world of watches created and issued for active service. He tells the #watchfam how he got started and even brings up some affordable options to consider.

Ep. #74 – Choosing Watches For Travel

Mike and Kaz talk about some of the cooler watches that slipped through the cracks during their usual Basel World 2018 press coverage. There are some cool finds under $1,000 and a few that might have the Snobs saving their pennies very soon. Guess they’ll have to turn to writing cheap Amazon erotica to fund the watch budget.

Ep. #73 – Basel World 2018 Bonanza!!!

Basel World 2018 is over, everybody – the dust has settled and the Two Broke Watch Snobs have just one question… did the event live up to the hyperbole (or is life just as meaningless as it was before more Blackbays were rammed down our gullets)?

Ep. #72 – Basel World 2018 Predictions (…and Lamentations)!

It’s that time of year again, guys – freaking Basel World 2018 is going down… you know what that means? This week Mike and Kaz are sitting down and talking Basel World 2018 predictions while also reminiscing about last year’s winner (and flops).

Ep. #71 – Writing About Watches & Watch Photography

Kaz and Mike take time out of their weekend to talk watches, share their frustrations, and kick back after a difficult week. How far can Mike take his #BaselBeard and is it really recycling if you chug water out of a used soda can? The Snobs are eco-conscious dudes after all… maybe.

Ep. #70 – Building A Watch Collection For $150

Think it’s hard trying to start a watch collection for $1,000? Yeah? Well, try starting one for $150! That’s what the Two Broke Watch Snobs try tackling this week and luckily, the solutions are diverse and creative. You don’t have to dish out a bunch of cash to be a “watch enthusiast” these days.

Ep. #69 – Interview With Raven Watches Founder Steve Laughlin

The Two Broke Watch Snobs are joined by Steve Laughlin – founder of Raven Watches – for a very special interview. This is one of the very first interviews we hoped to get our hands on when starting the podcast, so we’re super happy to finally have Steve on board. Just press play… you won’t regret it.
