Episode 192: VPC Watches with Thomas

4/8/2024
This week's episode Spence has the opportunity to speak with Fratello writer, and watch brand founder, Thomas Van Straaten to talk about his passion project, VPC watches. It has been a minute since we have had a brand owner on the show, but having spent some time with the VPC Type 37 HW you will see that it has left us thoroughly impressed. Thomas's eye for detail, including developing a unique typeface for the 37 HW, leads to a watch that punches well above its weight and is more than just a spec sheet watch. Overall, the fit, finishing, and detail of the Type 37 HW make the wearing experience superb. It is one of those watches that you only pick up these details having worn it. It was a pleasure getting to know Thomas better. If you have a chance, find a way to check out the Type 37 HW, you will not be disappointed!

Episode 182: Spence's Superlative Seiko

11/28/2023
Rumors of our demise have been grossly overstated. We have, however, had a busy November. We do apologize, dear listeners, for leaving you in the lurch for so long.
