In this episode of the Independent Thinking Show for ⁠⁠⁠@FifthWrist⁠⁠⁠ Radio, Roman (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@TimesRomanAU⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) is joined by Lewis Walduck (@lewis_walduck), fine clocks specialist at @bonhamsclocks,  antiquarian horologist, clockmaker, and lover of the fine arts!
In addition to his role at Bonhams, Lewis is also a Director of the British Watch and Clock Makers Guild: @bwcmg and a Youth board member of the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust (QEST): @qestcraft.

Join us as we chat about Lewis’ lifelong interest in horology, clocks and antiques, as well as his apprenticeship into clockmaking , and later into the auction world at Bonhams, and the value of combining bench skills with cataloguing and advising on restoration. 
We also talk about Lewis’ mentors along the way (eg. the late renowned Thomas Tompion expect Jeremy Evans and others) and have a few laughs.
Hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did. Thanks (as always) for tuning in!

In this episode of Independent Thinking for ⁠⁠@FifthWrist ⁠⁠Radio podcast, Roman (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@TimesRomanAU⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) and Adam (⁠⁠@mediumwatch⁠⁠) host Daryn Schnipper, Chairman Emeritus of Sotheby’s International Watch Division.
We discuss Daryn’s incredible and influential career in the auction world, some of the important and history-making sales Daryn has been instrumental in, and her collaboration with (previous guest and friend of podcast) Alex Barter on the “500 Years, 100 Watches” book documenting some of the most important timepieces throughout history.
 Daryn is generous in sharing her approach to scholarship, valuing watches, rarity, and meaningful technical or historical context, and distinguishing rare from merely obscure. 
Daryn also recounts scholarship-driven projects like the Time Museum Sales, The Henry Graves Supercomplication and The Olmsted Collection, and reflect on relationship-building with collectors, the emotional side of consignments, market behavior during crises, lead times for auctions, and advice to collectors to set focused criteria and goals.

Make sure to get a copy of Daryn and Alex's terrific book: "500 Years, 100 watches" and check out Sotheby's latest auctions.

In this episode of the Independent Thinking Show for ⁠⁠@FifthWrist⁠⁠ Radio, Roman (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@TimesRomanAU⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) is joined by author Mitch Katz (@uniquelyprototype) to discuss his new mystery novel “Time Eternal”.
We discuss Mitch’s previous horology collecting memor ("Time on My Hands": and his debut murder-mystery novel Time Eternal.
“Time Eternal” centers on a fictional Southern California watchmaker who invents an “eternal winding” movement powered by temperature changes and intends to release it open-source, prompting Swiss corporate intrigue and murders.

It is a perfect blend of horology, mystery, inspiration and a glance into Swiss watch industry!

Make sure to pick up a copy of Mitch’s both books and his Instagram account @uniquelyprototype
