The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep. 173: Change One Thing to Make it Perfect, and this Week’s Watch News

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re asking a simple question: If you could change one thing about any particular watch to make it perfect, what would it be? Even watches that we love have little quirks and imperfections that we’d love to change, and today Zach Weiss, Blake Buettner, and Zach Kazan are attacking the small details that we’d fix if we could. Odd lug widths, bracelet quibbles, and some inexplicable finishing choices are all on the table here. There might even be a date window discussion. How could there not be? 

We also talk through some of the big watch news of the last week, including a major release from Grand Seiko, and our own review of the latest watch from the recently revived Nivada Grenchen. 

Since no watch is perfect, be sure to let us know what you’d change on your favorite watches in the comments section or on Instagram.
