Ep. 208 "Boundary Swirl; with artist Shawn Kemp"

The guys prep for their NYC trip by discussing some of the brands they’re most interested in seeing. Kaz shares sad gator stories and Mike is fighting to get over his black watch phobia by turning to a watch he hasn’t worn in a while. Also, 120-click dive bezels vs. 60-click dive bezels...what are your thoughts?

Kaz and Mike then talk about the Paul Newman Daytona being auctioned off this week and what it means for watch enthusiasts everywhere. They take a quick look at the watch’s history and admire the genuine beauty of a timepiece this significant.

Ep. #53 Pre-Wind Up & Paul Newman’s Paul Newman Daytona

Everybody has to deal with puking pets, right? After a bit of a detour, the guys start talking watches… we promise. Mike finds an old friend in a drawer and Kaz says goodbye to a very special watch. It’s a bittersweet wrist check but new things are coming!

The snobs then talk about some of the previous week’s most notable watch news, including a $200 hand-cranked Timex Marlin reissue that’s cool as hell.

Finally, Kaz and Mike each select three of their own top choices for an affordable vintage dress watch. They go head to head, offer some buying tips, and find a striking and very cool similarity between each of their final choices.

Ep. #55 Affordable Vintage Watches Part 4

Mike and Kaz take some time to reflect on what they’re thankful for in this pre-Thanksgiving day episode. Unfortunately Kaz is caught in the madness of grocery store shopping before the holiday weekend but he survives and gets a chance to talk watches with us again.

Apparently Paris Hilton is a murdering chihuahua horologist and Kaz can no longer enjoy Depeche Mode. The guys then talk about the Grand Seiko boutique on Rodeo Drive and what it might mean for the brand. Kaz is also loving his new straps from @ea8.

We get a nice Rivkah update from Kaz as well! Finally, the Snobs tackle the topic of women’s watches as well as the significance of women in watchmaking. It’s a hell of an episode and happy late Thanksgiving to all!

Ep. #57 Watches For Women and Grand Seiko On Rodeo Drive

The guys end up recording in the same time zone and Mike ends up forgetting what a time zone actually is. Please excuse some of the plosives - Mike was recording without a proper pop filter. Oh! Kaz also starts a #watchfast with his Orient Christmas Chrono. Wish him luck!

Then the guys talk about some surprise releases like the new Seiko “Mini-Turtles” and the latest Hodinkee collaboration with Swatch. Weird. Also, should we clone Kaz?!

Finally, Kaz and Mike share some of their most sour experiences growing up as watch lovers and collectors. Mike gets kicked out of a jewellry store, Kaz buys an exploding watch, and they both reflect on how these negative experiences help you grow as a watch enthusiast.

Ep. #58 Horological Horror Stories

We catch Kaz during a very special time in his life and share some special moments on air. Ignore the fact that the snobs might be a bit sloshed but, you guys are actually listening to the audio portion of Kaz’s bachelor party! Do you guys know anything about fancy liquor?

Mike is still loving the Doxa “Black Lung” as it steals serious wrist time from his other watches. Should Kaz fix the crystal on his Big Zero if the damage is actually part of a special memory? We also get Kaz’s explicit burial instructions should he drop dead some time soon. Also, what’s your “burning house watch?”

Finally, the guys talk about the concept of the “wedding watch” and how special it can be for today’s watch collector. Mike shares what it was like to pick a wedding watch early on in his “collecting career” while Kaz chooses a very special wedding watch out of his growing collection.
