Editor’s pick — Accessory quick take: key highlight (movement/specs for watches, materials/finish, limited run, pricing tier) in 1–2 lines.
On this week’s episode of The Business of Watches, we’re doing something a little different. We’re taking your questions, and we’ve got a special guest as Hodinkee Editor-In-Chief, James Stacey, joins the podcast to help answer your queries on the business side of the dial. We hit a lot of topics, from the best perpetual calendars under $20,000, to rising watch prices, the recent surge in Swiss watch exports to the U.K., and just how popular is Halloween in Switzerland?
It’s a fun episode, and we hope you enjoy it. Be sure to leave any thoughts or questions in the comments section, and we’ll do our best to respond.
