Another episode of the Independent Thinking Show for FifthWrist Radio.
Hosts Roman (@TimesRomanAU) and Anthony (@defining_time) chat with today’s special guest – Asher Rapkin (@collectivehorology) collector and patron of independent watchmaking and co-founder of the “Collective” watch club.
Join us for a conversation about building online watch communities, independent watchmaking, modern watch marketing; and just what great things can happen when watch makers and collectors meet and have a shared vision to create unique pieces to celebrate the horological craft.
Anthony even snuck in a question or two about knife makers towards the end.
Oh, and there is a short ode to A. Lange & Sohne in here as well (@alangesoehne) J
A belated drink check for the participants: Anthony – Espresso; Roman – “Fortnum & Mason” Black Tea (Royal Blend) and Asher – “Summer IPA” (Faction Brewing, Alameda CA).
