Ep. 70: Growing the WatchFam with OT

In the age of the Internet, it's easy to forget that half the fun when it comes to collecting watches is getting together with other collectors and enthusiasts and, well, talking watches. Today, we sit down with OT—a bay area-based collector who is all about getting together and chatting about watches—about what it's like to build a watch community in the digital age. A quick note about the podcast. Some of you may have noticed that in the last episode, we introduced a new enhanced format to the show. What do I mean by enhanced? Well, through some podcast players, you can now see embedded images and links to help you follow along through our discussion. Now, this isn't available on every podcast player, so if you want to take advantage of these enhanced features, check out Overcast and Pocket Casts, two fantastic apps and players. Oh, and speaking of show notes, we'll be including a full set of show notes with each episode going forward.  This week's episode is brought to you by The Worn & Wound Shop.
