Description

It's easy enough to keep a narrow interest. We like what we like, more of the same can be a matter of "yes please!". Finding an interest in something we've not previously been very interested in at all? Now that takes the seductive moves of a true lothario. In this weeks episode, Dachi tries to make Nick see the light when it comes to wrist-mounted timepieces, or watches as we usually call them. Dachi leads on a trail that takes us by classic military watches, diving watches, who used what to tell the time on Everest, why some watches appear to increase in value beyond any other investment, why you can't go into a Rolex dealer and just buy a watch, and many more topics. At the end of the day, will Dachi convince Nick to drop the digital atrocity that he wears, or will it have been a futile exercise in seduction? This is without a doubt another unmissable tet a tet.Dachi is Rugged_Frills on InstagramINick Johannessen is the host of Garmology, the editor of the WellDressedDad blog and WellDressedDad on Instagram. You can email Nick as WellDressedDad (at) Gmail.com.

Garmology is a podcast about our clothes, old and new, how they are made, the impact they have, from a perspective of buying, wearing, collecting, evaluating and appreciating. With interesting guests, the aim is to provide a non-fashion view on the world of our clothes. Expect plenty of opinions, but pretty much no mention of tailoring or pocket squares.  Garmology is researched, booked, hosted, edited, published, paid for and everything else by Nick Johannessen. There is no advertising or sponsorship, but you are welcome to support the podcast at buymeacoffee.com/garmology Garmology theme music by Fabian Stordalen.
