Join us LIVE tomorrow at 10:30am New York time when we talk to David Freemont McCready of DFreemont Watches, one of my favorite US boutique producers. Mr. McCready has quite a history in the watch trade and his watches are reasonably priced and have great stories behind them.

In this episode the boys talk about the upcoming Basel show and offer some tips on collecting.
Here is the official podcast version of the Help Desk show. Quality really won’t go up on these because of the way they’re recorded. Unfortunately it’s the only way we can take calls right now. Ariel and I are going to talk about how to run these shows in the future, however, her are a few questions we have for you specifically:
1. Should these be folded into the regular podcast feed or should they have their own show i.e. a separate iTunes feed for these shows?
2. Did you enjoy the concept? Was it helpful?
3. Should this last an hour?
4. When should we run the live shows? What time? What day of week?
Let us know what you think and we’ll keep rocking.
Don’t forget: We’re going to be trying something brand new on Friday – a 30 minute show called the HourTime Help Desk. But we need your help. On Friday at 6:30 PM Eastern/3:30 PM Pacific we’re going to run a call-in talk show we’re calling Help Desk. We’ll still do our regular show, but this second show will probably run once every two weeks, if you guys like it, and we’ll talk about your watch questions and discuss your collections, your watch choices, and your favorite brands.
In this episode the boys talk about watch collecting and the magic of eBay. We also visit with Xetum watches and UBoat and talk about Navy Seal watches from JLC.
Send a photo of your watch collection to tips@hourtimeshow.com and we’ll post it here!
