This week on the aBlogtoWatch Weekly podcast, the gang is back together with a renewed exuberance! After a reminder that yes, aBlogtoWatch does have a Twitter account, they talk about next year's watch shows, gimmicky watch collaborations, and the games brands play games with consumers. If that weren't enough, they try to dissect the logic behind Moser's latest release, play more pricing games with new Seikos while trying to figure out what the heck the brand is doing, and make their picks for who had the best and worst years. Plus, a new boutique and new watches from Chopard and a thrilling discussion about date wheels. Listen below or on the player of your choice.
