This episode is a little different. Instead of talking about the latest releases or getting distracted by whatever shiny object has appeared this week, we’re taking a look back. How did Scottish Watches actually start? How did we end up here? Which watches hooked us into this wonderful hobby? Who are the people that helped us along the way? And how did a chance meeting or two turn into something that’s become such a huge part of our lives!

More than anything, this is our chance to say thank you. To everyone who’s downloaded an episode on the commute, watched us on YouTube, sent us a message, stopped us at a watch event, handed us a watch to try on, or simply shared a laugh with us over the years!
