DTS – with Independent Watchmaker Josh Shapiro

Moser CEO Edouard Meylan

Welcome to the horology world’s ultimate watchmaking podcast network. On this episode of the Defining Time Show, Roman makes a reappearance to join me in a conversation with none other than watchmaker Josh Shapiro of JN Shapiro Watches. If you are not familiar with Josh’s work you need to check it out. Beautiful engine turned dials that are up there with the best in the world.

Topics

A true craftsman who has perfected his craft and expanding his skills. Josh talks with us about his road to perfecting his craft and Roman has recently purchased a JN Shapiro watch so I thought it would be good to get him on with Josh to talk about the fun bits and challenges when commissioning a piece and how the process works. Josh’s passion for what he does shines through as I thought it would. We also chat about the state of the industry from an independent’s point of view and it’s safe to say he has an opinion and it’s worth listening to. Loads of fun and thank you to Josh for being a great sport and taking the time to talk.
