We chat with IWC’s dynamic, design-focused CEO and discover the story behind the IWC Portugieser, as well as all the latest Watches & Wonders releases, including the unusual inspiration for those colourful dials. We also discuss the ongoing legacy of the Big Pilot and why one simply doesn’t design an iconic watch.

We speak to Patrick Johnson, the man behind the eponymous (and cool) P Johnson Tailors about the Australian take on fine tailoring, creating a global sense of style and why rules about clothes (and watches) aren’t always the best idea. And then there’s yellow gold Aquanauts and why the Italians have the best taste in watches.

In a shocking move, Rolex, Patek Philippe, Chopard and Chanel have just announced they are leaving Baselworld. Baselworld pushes back. It’s messy and potentially fatal for the embattled watch fair. But what does it mean for the watch industry?

We pick up the phone and chat to Chris Alexander, a  professionally trained artist who stumbled into the world of custom watches. Plus a healthy dose of bling and one of the watch internet’s living treasures. Oh, and Gene bought a watch – you’ll never guess what.

Brad lives on a horse farm in the woods of rural England. Honestly, this is all he needed to say to get Andy and Felix onboard. The fact that he also wants a 'true' GMT for 4000 GBP or less is the cherry on the cake. Turns out great options, including Grand Seiko, Bremont and Omega abound. Plus the perfect cup of coffee.
