James Dowling — author, dealer, collector and connoisseur is considered by many to be one of the world’s leading authorities on Geneva’s green giant — they don’t call him Mister Rolex for nothing. And in his decades of collecting and focusing on the watch industry, James has some firm opinions about — well — everything (he’s also got some pretty wild stories). From vintage Rolex collecting going too far, the state of watch knowledge in the Instagram generation through to what (and who) makes a good watch, he pulls no punches. So if you’re looking for a 45-minute crash course in watch collecting and appreciation, you can’t afford to miss this. This episode is made possible by Swiss Typefaces.   Show notes: www.otpodcast.com.au/show-notes/s1e18 THINGS WE’VE LIKED: The Vintage Rolex Field Guide on Amazon Morning Tundra on Instagram La Maison du Pastel on Instagram SHOWNOTES: James Dowling on Instagram How to follow us: Instagram: @ot.podcast Facebook: @OTPodcastAU Follow hosts: @fkscholz + @andygreenlive on Instagram.
