Ep. 141 - Adam Craniotes (RedBar Founder, Watch Journalist)

The watch world is a funny place where even before you meet someone, it’s often you follow one another online knowing well you’d be friends even had you met at a bar down the street. I guess in a sense, Instagram serves as a virtual bar for watch geeks like myself. Adam Craniotes and I met through the Social Media platform where he shares his self-deprecating humor, his admiration and allegiance to David Hasselhoff, and of course his pseudo-public humiliation of his children. I happen to adore his relationship with his kids, but we’re here to chat all things watches, his writing career, his collecting journey, and of course his Acura MDX with the Sport Package. Of course none of this would’ve been possible had he not routinely met a friend at a little upstairs bar in the Koreatown neighborhood of Manhattan. That bar was called Red Bar, and so the watch group was named. Please enjoy my conversation with its founder, Mr. Adam Craniotes.STANDARD H⁠www.standard-h.com⁠@standardh_Adam Craniotes@craniotes This is a public episode.
