Fratello Talks: Watches And Wonders 2023 Debrief Part 1 — Piaget, Tudor, Jaeger-LeCoultre, And More!
The Fratello boys (and girls) are back in town! And as the fog of war begins to settle, we’ve convened and gathered our thoughts on last week’s watch fair. This is the Watches and Wonders 2023 debrief episode. In keeping with the short-form format of Fratello Talks, we don’t get to cover every single one of the novelties. Instead, we discuss some of our highlights from the show. These range from the novelties that we knew were coming and still surprised us to those that seemingly came out of nowhere to become our favorites and everything in between. So grab your beverage of choice, put on your headphones, and click, tap, or bark the command at your smart device of choice, and have a listen to this week’s episode of Fratello Talks!

Wrist check!
As you know by now, it wouldn’t be a watch-related podcast without a contractually-mandated wrist check. Daan, Sinara, and Nacho gather around the Fratello podcasting table for today’s episode. Daan is wearing his artsy Oris Atelier Art Blakey (ref. 0173377624081-Z) on a Joseph Bonnie Bonklip bracelet. Sinara is wearing her latest from Swatch and the brand’s collab with MoMA, the Reverie by Roy Lichtenstein, The Watch. And Nacho is wearing his burgundy bronze Fratello × Oris “Fratelloris” Big Crown Bronze Pointer Date on the OEM gray nubuck strap.
