Loved this episode James, so exited to see how the series continues and grows. Would be awesome for some video down the line with it! Much love , Barbells & Watches

[@thetimist]

Thanks so much for the kind words and support mate! Really appreciate it! Definitely thought about video but decided against it for a few reasons, a few being that editing video is a lot more work and I wanted to have quick turnaround times on the podcast. Second, some guests (I foresee) could be camera shy and I'd like to protect them from any sort of negative feelings tied to something we hold so dear - talking about watches haha! But We'll see, the topics and segments may change and shift, but I welcome the feedback so keep it coming!

So cool to hear “The Call”!

[@thetimist]

It was a ton of fun and genuinely got me excited and hyped up! I was trying my best to contain myself and not spoil it, but it was a pretty epic moment for all 3 of us honestly :)

[@AdamRLincoln]

Such a good and interesting listening experience. Your voice and language sounds so professional. Your born for this. About sleeping off, yes that happens😂😂 but I always come back to it and sometimes listen to an episode multiple times. Looking forward to more 👊👊👍👍.

[@thetimist]

Thank you my friend! That means a lot coming from you! And yes, you better believe I've fallen asleep myself listening to podcasts, so I totally get it haha!

@@thetimistehm, one more thing. You mentioned watches connected to pop culture such as APs Marvel collabs or collabs wirh musicians etc. In my opinion there is one exception where you can buy a watch „from a movie“ and that’s the Omega-James Bond collab. I mean look at the NTTD Seamaster in Titanium or the 60th anniversary Seamaster with the ultra cool caseback. The character of James Bond in movies is about as old as the first man in space (1962 va 1961). I am pretty sure the watches are not going to be an embarrassment on the wrist in future decades. What do you think?

[@thetimist]

@@swisswatch_ing I completely agree - I'll add that paying $3-10K for a luxury Swiss timepiece that's tied to a cinema character with a high profile IP such as James Bond is a pill that is a lot easier to swallow than something that costs $200K + and that's not to say that paying $3K for a timekeeping device in our modern era isn't a lot, because it is! But it's not $200K and it's not coming out of a watchmaker's workshop that is regarded by some to be in the "big 3." 👍

This was a great way to kick off what hopefully seems like a great series of episodes, bro. Very well done indeed👏👏👏. It was always tricky to decide who you bring in as your first guest but what an immense job there. Not only he’s actively talkative but he brought great insights and gave answers that weren’t expected. Instead he hammered it every time😁. It’s wonderful to see that the show was planned out and thought through well. You drove the conversation real well. If you’re planning to top this show even further, watch aficionados have great entertainment coming up, hopefully for years to come🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽 You sure keep going, man.👌🏽

[@thetimist]

Super appreciate you listening and for taking the time to leave such an awesome comment my friend 🤗 Episode 2 is primed and ready and I’m excited to publish on March 15 👍
