Ep. 78 - A Man's Guide to Wristwatches Part 2: Finding The Right Watch Style

Tim Jackson and I continue our discussion about fine watches, and what makes them "tick." Tim is the Founder and Owner of Independent in Time, a company that deals in watches made by Independent Watchmakers from around the world.

We cover a lot of ground here, including different watch options, brands, and other things to consider when choosing the perfect timepiece.

Key Takeaways:

• Well known watch brands are a great starting point for discovering what kind of style appeals to you. If the price tag is out of reach, all is not lost!  There are alternatives.
• Micro brands are emerging as exciting contenders. These smaller, enthusiast-driven companies offer unique designs, quality craftsmanship, and affordability.
• Questions to ask yourself: Is historical prestige essential, or are you open to newer players? Do you prioritize performance, aesthetics, or both?
• Explore micro brands that blend innovation with affordability. They often deliver impressive features and designs.

If you need expert advice about something you don’t know much about, and need a little guidance, send me an email at andy@buylikeaguy.com and I’ll do my best to cover it in an upcoming show. 

If you’re “that guy,” (and of course you can be a woman) that people should hear from because you know your sh*t about a certain subject, please reach out to me, and let’s talk about how we can work together.
