Specifically, we want to explore watch designs that became "classics" from our generation (mid 1980s to today).

In this episode of Two Broke Watch Snobs, hosts Mike and Kaz delve into the concept of 'shitter watches'—affordable timepieces that may not be high-end but hold a special place in the hearts of collectors. They explore the relativity of what constitutes a shitter watch, share personal anecdotes about their own collections, and celebrate the charm of budget-friendly options like the Invicta Pro Diver. The conversation highlights the fun and enjoyment that can come from these watches, regardless of their perceived value. They also delve into Panerai watches' controversial reputation and surrounding community, highlighting the balance between aesthetics and technical appreciation in watch collecting. The conversation highlights personal experiences with different models, the importance of aesthetics over brand prestige, and the fun of owning affordable timepieces that still look great.

We're just barely into 2023 and the watch world has already brought us a ton of cool new releases to lust over. Kaz and Mike run through their favorites from LVMH Watch Week and pick apart the best watches that made their way to the TBWS website. Plus there are two new guides on the site giving you insight into the world of affordable pilot watches and the best German brands making watches today. Finally, the guys concoct a scheme to hoard more eggs and quite possibly stumbled on the a new fashion trend that needs to happen. We'll put it this way - Mike is about to buy a bunch of turtlenecks.

This week, Kaz and Mike are discussing the practicality behind watch fairs and trade shows, while trying to understand what they mean for the consumer—not the brand or the blogger. Plus, the guys continue to plan and discuss their steady transformation, into watch industry e-boys. Tune in!…

Plus, you'll get to hear about the latest review on the TBWS site and plans for other watches the guys are looking to test out.…

Kaz and Mike come together to share their objectively-correct opinions on in-house movements and the surrounding conversations. Are they actually worth it? Do they really stack up against "generic" outsourced movements? When does in-house make sense, and when is it just a marketing gimmick?
