Ep. 78 - Jonathan Ferrer (Brew Watches)

I first learned about Brew Watches through HODINKEE as many of you may have. Former podcast guest James Stacey always seems to know how to get my attention through his words and photos and his features of Jonathan Ferrer’s espresso machine-inspired chronograph was no exception. A chronograph that times an espresso shot, now that’s something you don’t see every day. And same goes for the TV set shape of the Brew Metric’s case. Definitely drawing from the 60’s & 70’s this $395 chronograph and it’s vintage radio-inspired color palette is also nothing if not attention-grabbing. And all of this coming the gentleman I’m speaking to as he sits in the driver seat of his 2019 Aston Martin V8 Vantage. Jonathan is my kind of guy. He’s an east coaster with a history of riding bikes, listening to the likes of Nirvana & early 2000’s pop punk, and he’s been the one man band behind Brew Watches…that is, up until a week before recording this podcast. I’m excited to share his story and certainly appreciate his candor when it comes to his approach to design and decision making. I think you’ll enjoy this one.Links:STANDARD Hhttps://standard-h.com/@standardh_@standardh_podcastJonathan Ferrer https://www.brew-watches.com/@brewwatches@johnferrerPassion Fine Jewelryhttps://passionfinejewelry.com/@passionfinejewelryIndependent in Timehttps://www.independentintime.com/@independentintime This is a public episode.
