Episode notes

Watch making is much cleaner when you've decided to form your own company. I think there's a lot of people who, they do not even really know about mechanical watches. It i feel like you're kind of like the jack white of herology. There's something about mechanical watches that's very like akin to, like i appreciate hearing music on wax cylinders and vino.

Million-dollar watches, World War II's role in watchmaking, and how much caffeine a watchmaker drinks. Twenty-something horologist Cameron Weiss also dishes about mechanical vs. quartz, little tiny springs, patience, S-Town and the history of timekeeping. Also we address rap lyrics and some existential boolsheet.
