Published 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Humans have been tracking time for millennia — but when did we decide to wear it? In this episode, we trace the evolution of the watch, from clunky ticking contraptions to sleek wrist‑bound supercomputers. How did a simple time‑telling bracelet become the indispensable gadget we can’t stop glancing at?
Guest: Tania Edwards, Co founder of Collectability, a collecting consultancy and Trustee Emeritus of the Horological Society of New York
