DTS - The Ultimate Beater Watch

Subscribe to the show on Google, Apple, Spotify and all other podcast players. On this episode of The Defining Time Show, Anthony from @defining_time  is joined by Alex @thewatchregulator. Alex and Anthony discuss their favourite reviews from the site and the watches are pretty far apart in terms of price and function. We also get into a conversation relating to one of the review writers and his views on beater watches and what that actually means. Can a Patek Philippe really be a beater or is that title reserved only for things like Casio G Shocks and cheap Seiko dive watches.  We talk about the new limited edition from TAG Heuer. How relevant we feel that it is and what impact we think it will have in the enthusiast community. We get into sizing again and how important that is for the wearability and feel of a watch, especially when it comes to vintage reissues.  SHOW NOTES 00.53 Wristchecks CWC (Alex) & Rolex Explorer (Anthony) 04.55 Favourite Review - patek-philippe-ref-5370p-review  & vintage-tudor-ranger-ref-7996-review 14.35 TAG Heuer Carrera 160 years silver limited edition 23.15 The Ultimate Beater Concept by The Watch Baron Instagram Recommendations from the community for this episode: Anthony: @galaxyguy1969 Alex: name changed or account deleted Go check out their profiles and give them a follow.
