Episode 81: The 50 ok-ish watches of all time

Hey Everybody! This week, Mike and Joe tackle the Robb Report - "The 50 greatest watches of all time" and argue over why they believe some of those watches even belong on that list. They also have some suggestions on what SHOULD have been on that list. That and Mike gives his thoughts on the Bulova Mil-Ships. All this and more, on this weeks episode. Cheers!

Question, might get my hands on a vintage Accutron watch. If I do, is there a good watchmaker that service them that you recommend?

That's a question Joe will have an answer to. I'll have him jump on here soon to let you know 👍🏻

@25:47 if you don’t understand why the Freak belongs on this list…please read up on the innovation. Also @38:50 the Reverso not really the first “sports” watch.was this a list of important/greatest watches or something different? Debating over the influence of the PN Daytona is odd…it has done for watches what many brands combined could not.

[@lloydkanglive9161]

But the PN Daytona is still… a Daytona. And the Lore ascribes the Reverso as the first Sports Watch, so 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@johnd-xd9sn]

@@lloydkanglive9161 ...many collectors (and Cartier) would debate the "lore" to which you refer.

It'll depend on where you're located, what the issue is, and if you want to send something to Thailand. Shoot me DM

[@samnova450]

Can’t reply, might get one from eBay. If I do, let ya know. Thanks

[@weedwacker88]

What a shame. Not a single field watch

[@thespringbarpodcast]

Very true. One should definitely have been on there.

You’d think at least the dirty dozen would have made it in as a class
