Auction Trouble, A New Paul Newman, And Paris With Breguet

For this episode of aBlogtoWatch Weekly, Ariel, Rick, and David are joined by Jose Pereztroika of Perezcope. After quickly talking about the role that watches play in the most recent Spiderman movie, our hosts dive into a deep discussion about the latest auction scandal that has captivated the industry, which concerns a rare Omega Speedmaster that sold for a record-breaking sum before it was ultimately discovered that the watch was not entirely authentic. From there, the conversation moves on to the surprise new anniversary-edition Paul Newman Daytona from Rolex, before shifting to the overlap between watch media and events following Ariel’s recent interview with Zach Weiss from Worn & Wound. To wrap up the show, David recaps his recent trip to Paris with Breguet and also offers his insight on the brand’s recently-released Type XX chronograph, which has become a rather passionate talking point within the industry.
