The Worn & Wound Podcast ·

2026/09/16

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are interrogating some watch industry conventional wisdom. There’s a lot of it out there. From the idea that it’s the “story” that matters most in a watch, to the principle of “buying what you love,” and even the idea that everyone needs a certain type of watch in their collection. This is a fun conversation and Zach and Kat definitely poke some holes in some watch industry ideas that perhaps don’t stand up completely to close scrutiny. Let us

Ep 464: Watches We Were Wrong About

The Worn & Wound Podcast ·

2026/08/26

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Cait Bazemore are holding themselves accountable and talking about the watches they were wrong about. After years of collecting and working in the watch industry, Zach and Cait have both realized there have been times when they were just plain wrong about a watch, or a preconceived notion about watches in general. In the spirit of reflection, this conversation focuses on watches we misjudged – things we liked and now don’t, or vice-versa. There’s

2026/08/19

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan welcomes Zach Weiss to the podcast for an old-fashioned discussion on the nature of collecting. Specifically, they’re talking about how their taste has evolved over the course of years. They drill down on how working in the industry, being exposed to a huge variety of watches, and the simple nature of time have changed their thoughts on what’s appealing, and what’s not. They also get pretty granular on specific watches from their collections’ past

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Zach Weiss and Ed Jelley to talk about some of the watches they’ve each had in for review over these last few months. The summer is traditionally a slow time for the watch industry, so we took the opportunity to get as many review samples in the office as possible, and there have been a bunch of standouts. The conversation kicks off with a recap of Zach W’s review of the Otsuka Lotec No. 8, which Zach K. has been wearing a lot as well. And then Ed

Our Favorite Watches Under $1,000

The Worn & Wound Podcast ·

2026/08/05

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Kat Shoulders and Cait Bazemore for what might be, according to some, an exercise in futility: identifying three watches (each) under $1,000 that have been released this year. With all the chatter about rising prices (and Geneva Watch Days coming up, an event not known for its orientation toward value) the team thought it would be worthwhile to identify some truly affordable watches that have come to market recently. What they’ve come up

2026/07/30

The word has been out for a little over a week, but in case you missed the news, Worn & Wound acquired Lorier. We’re super excited about it. Before the news went public (save for a small leak), Blake, James, and Zach sat down with Lauren and Lorenzo Ortega, the founders of Lorier, to discuss the acquisition. It’s a very open, honest conversation about what led up to the decision as well as about our goals now that we are working together.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The

Ep 459: How to Know When to Upgrade Your Camera

2026/07/22

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Garrett Jones, Worn & Wound’s Lead Photographer, joins Zach to discuss something many of us have quietly (and sometimes loudly) wondered about: how do I know when it’s time to upgrade my camera? And what about all of our other gear? How do we know when we’re just justifying a gear purchase in the flimsiest way, versus timing an upgrade strategically? Zach and Garrett get into the weeds on how they think about upgrading cameras, EDC gear, and even

2026/07/15

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are joined by Georgia Benjamin, who by day works in design at Adobe, but by night (and probably all around the clock, frankly) has become quite a force in the watch world. By the numbers, she is among the most followed female watch personalities on social media, and has become a fixture in the broader enthusiast and collecting community. Georgia talks to us about what drew her to watches, how her career at Adobe informs her interest in watches,

Time on Screen: High Fidelity

The Worn & Wound Podcast ·

2026/07/07

This week on Time on Screen, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders explore High Fidelity, the cult hit starring John Cusack as a lovelorn record store owner from 2000. Why High Fidelity? Two reasons. First, it’s set in Chicago, and ahead of our Windup Watch Fair in the Windy City, we wanted to check out a Chicago set film. Second, this movie is truly about an entire enthusiast culture. There are more than a few similarities between the music obsessives in this film and watch enthusiasts we all experience on

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Zach Weiss to take a look back at the year so far. We’re about halfway through 2026, so it feels like a good time to think about some of our favorite watches of the year so far, as well as some of the biggest watch stories. This has actually been a very eventful year to this point, with too many great releases to name, and some major changes to the trade show scene which will have a major impact on 2027.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan welcomes Kat Shoulders to the show to explore a topic first covered here: watch writing cliches. Zach and Kat run through some of the cliches mentioned in Zach’s original article and discuss whether these ideas hold up and why they happen in the first place. It’s actually an interesting conversation, and gets to the heart of how watches are covered in the media, and what approach should be taken. We’d love to know your thoughts, so let us know what cliches need
