Fratello On Air: WASP 9.91 — Our Favorite Olympic Watches Including Swatch, Omega, And More…
WASP 9.91 sees the guys go to two decimal places for the first time, much to the confusion of everyone else. Less confusing, however, is the duo’s shared love of a very special Omega Speedmaster created for the Olympics, but that’s not the only Olympic watch to feature… Far from it…
For the first time ever, an on-air purchase occurs as Rob stumbles across his all-time favorite Swatch available on eBay for a stunning price (box and papers included). Additionally, Fridge and Freezer discuss Balazs’s recent purchases (lovers of vintage Angelus be sure to tune in) and Rob’s burgeoning collection of caps that had a sudden injection of volume thanks to the chance discovery of an old forgotten sports store in Alcudia on Mallorca.
The biggest conversation of the show, however, centers around a question posed by RJ in one of his recent articles: what does it take to consider oneself a watch collector? The boys pick over the nuances of their own feelings towards their own habits and collections with some interesting results. Would you believe that Balazs is not a watch collector but he is a collector of vintage Angelus watches? If that sounds crazy, you’d better listen to the show to hear the reasoning behind that conclusion…
