This crossover episode between watches and cars features Ben Wilson, former head of product at UK-based online car retailer Cazoo. Ben is an expert on the used car market, and was involved in building one of the most sophisticated used car pricing and valuation services in the UK. In this conversation, we discuss the parallels between the car world and the watch world, and the challenges (both technical and practical) of building large-scale automated systems to understand fragmented and unstructured markets.

Rolex has officially launched a certified pre-owned program for its watches, and we answer your questions about it.

In this episode, we talk about the lessons we've learned throughout our journey as watch collectors and enthusiasts.

We dive into the question of what makes a hype watch, and our personal experiences with hype in our own collecting journeys.
