Ep #44: WatchPro Salon 2024 - Nobody Does It Better
Listen to full episode :
Nobody Does It Better or so Carly Simon’s song went, but when it comes to putting on the premier watch show in London, nobody does it better than that Rob Corder’s WatchPro.
Andy flew in specially for this event so take this opportunity to follow the boys’ two day experience at the Londoner Hotel in the UK capital’s Leicester Square. Nicknamed the unofficial CP7 Christmas Party it was an experience from beginning to end. We meet new and old friends, and brands that the boys have been itching the see for a while like Brew Watches, Favre Leuba, M.A.D Editions, Nivada Grenchen and many more.
We also find out why cool French brand Hegid feels like a family affair and why everyone is going crazy about the stone dials of Dennison!
So buckle up and enjoy the ride London style as we are back for this year’s exciting instalment of WatchPro Salon!
First up are the classic wristwatch checks: we start with Parm, who is wearing the Atelier Wen Millésime titanium with the purple dial, followed by Andy, showcasing the HEGID Laboratoire Colorama.
Now, we move on to the brand highlights, where the CP7 boys each choose a favorite watch per brand. Starting with Nivada Grenchen, Parm’s choice is the Depthmaster 'PAC-Man,' while Andy selected the Antarctic with an eggshell dial.
Next, we highlight Micromilspec, with Parm’s choice being the Hercules and Andy selecting the Milgraph.
Now, we turn to Dennison, where Parm’s pick is the Tigers Eye, and Andy has selected the Aventurine.
Now, we feature Mad Gallery, with Andy’s pick being the MAD 1S in purple, and Parm choosing the MAD 1S in blue.
Next up, we highlight Favre Leuba, with Parm selecting the Chief Date in green, followed by the Royal Blue dial, and Andy choosing the Deep Blue Revival.
Next, we highlight Brerw, with Andy selecting the Matic Gold and Black, followed by Parm’s choice, the Matic Retro.
Finally, we highlight HEGID, with Andy selecting the Laboratoire Colorama, followed by Parm’s pick, the Mirage Blue.
