Mercedes Benz design impression deep-dive; 993 gen 911 bridges the Porsche experience; NEW Tudor Pelagos FXD Alinghi Red Bull Racing drops; Seinfeld’s $1.3M 996

The hits keep coming on another extended episode!  David sparks discussion and some debate on the current Mercedes-Benz design language and how there is a broad line of segregation between the elegance of the old and the AMG'isation of the last 20 years.  This dovetails the boys into how Porsche culture stands alone, especially when it comes to sports cars.
Matt gives prose on why the 993 generation 911 is so special and where it would fit in someone's collection....particularly to complement a recent 991.2 GTS acquisition.
David talks about a new movement from Tudor as well as their recent drop of an Alinghi Red Bull Racing Pelegos FXD in both time only and a Chrono option.
Finally, a quick rundown of Jerry Seinfeld's recently acquired 1-of-1 996 Classic Club Coupe - everyone else is talking about it, so we HAVE to!!
Enjoy!!
 

The Live Episode! NEW Rolex Daytona; Playing the Watch allocation game; Hirji drives the 997.2; a 1-of-1 Porsche 997 Carrera S

Through a smoke-filled garage, we find Matt and David in a whiskey-soaked state of heightened intelligence.....they think that with inebriation comes more impactful content.  I guess you'll have to decide for yourself.
Finally together and sharing oxygen and a single mic (don't worry, the audio is actually pretty good!), the boys walk through plenty of topics on this 13th episode.  Starting with the new Rolex Daytona and its significance beyond esthetics, the topic of actually getting one comes into play.  
Meanwhile, David gets some long-overdue seat time in Matt's 997.2 Carrera and while out on a drive, they pay a visit to the local Porsche dealer.  It's here that they find and discuss the origin of a true 1-of-1, 997 Carrera S in Aqua-Marine Blue.
Capping off the episode, they stumble through (over)committing to their joint watch and car collection.  So, let's all listen and hold them accountable!!
Enjoy!

100th running of 24hr of Le Mans; 991.2 Carrera 4 GTS; Porsche Innovations from the Track to the Tarmack

On the 12th episode, Matt and David focus primarily on P-car talk and it's exciting....at least to porschephiles....maybe?
Matt talks about the recent documentary released by Hagarty on YouTube - Racing with Giants: Porsche at Le Mans, the history of Porsche Motorsports and how innovation made it from the Mulsanne straight, to Mulholland drive - i.e. the track to the street.
David breaks the news that there will be an incoming 991.2 C4 GTS MANUAL, confirming the 981 Cayman GT4 is outgoing.  They talk about driving these two cars back-to-back, the differences in driving characteristics, and the overall sensations that come with each car.
Not much in the realm of watches this week, but it's still guaranteed to melt your heart, tickle your funnybone, pique your mind, and leave you breathless....or your money back.
 
P.S. - this podcast is free and worth every penny!

Rough Cut: The Ideas Episode; Is a 981 GT4 trade worthy of 991.2 C4 GTS??; F.P. Journe Linesport Octa Sport; TAG Heuer Calibre 02 Movement

FULL DISCLOSURE: This ep wasn't intended to air.  Matt and David were chatting about ideas for their "awesome" podcast, so they missed the Intro and Outro.  Shhhhh....don't tell them we're publishing it.  They don't listen anyway.
 
It's rough but relaxed in this week's episode.  Originally, they didn't intend to publish this but with good conversation, comes good content.  Or....erm.....at least it was easy enough to publish!
 
Matt and David discuss some ideas for upcoming shows.  Now that 10 episodes are in the rearview, they think they're pros or something.  They present a review of potential upcoming guests (including David's father), what to ask them, and how to get their stories about cars, watches, and how they got to where they are.  David probes with thoughts on a 991.2 C4 GTS Manual and whether is it worthy of trading a 981 GT4 in an effort to retain driving pleasure with a more "daily" sports car.
 
Finally, the pursuit of interest in independent watchmaking continues with a closer look at F.P. Journe and their Linesport Octa Sport Ref: L-OCT TI 42 D GR.  Wrapping with a closer look and understanding of TAG Heuer's new Calibre 02 Movement.
 
Lot's of comedic bumps and bruises along the way, but they had fun!!!  Go enjoy!
 

McLaren History Lesson; George Daniels, father of Co-Axial Movement; Spiderman AP Royal Oak???; Bad haircuts and worse impressions

On the tenth...yes....10th episode, Matt takes us through the history of McLaren Automotive; from humble beginnings to a supercar brand capable of competing against the large Italian and German auto brands.
 
David, dives into the world of Independent Watch Makers, starting with some history on George Daniels, an English clockmaker who invented the Co-Axial movement and conquered 32/35 steps to watchmaking!
 
Then, the guys discuss a new Marvel collab with Audemars Piguet....and try to understand why 1 of 250 pieces sold for 6.5M CHF.  Followed by some car-spotting news and more bad impressions.
 
It's a full show, folks.  Enjoy!!!

The IWC Episode; Lando Norris’ Custom McLaren 765LT Spyder; Drew Hafner’s 1-of-a-kind ’68 Porsche 912 Special

In the 9th episode, Matt takes us down memory lane with an IWC history lesson and the boys look to Chrono24 for their IWC reccomendations at FOUR different price points!  While this takes up the bulk of the episode, they do get to some car talk eventually.
 
Lando Norris just took delivery of his custom McLaren 765LT Spyder, so naturally, there needs to be some thought-sharing on the spec.  As well, they'll showcase a one-off creation of a classic Porsche by Drew Hafner, a young and talented fabricator from Emory Motorsports.  Drew has built himself one of the most spectacular and special air-cooled Porsches we've seen, and we just couldn't NOT talk about it.  Link to Drew's car showcased on Ben Kahan's YouTube channel:

It's a focused ep, so prepare to get educated!!  We hope you enjoy it.
 
 

2023 718 GTS 4.0 Final Config; Vintage Patek Philippe & Rolex Daytona at Auction; Thoughts on the new 718 Spyder RS; F1 and Hyped watches; Bad Stallone impressions

Lot's to talk about on this week's episode!!!
David shares his new 718 GTS configuration, we talk about recent vintage watches at auction and how the Daytona market is becoming reminiscent of Unobtainium.  
Why are rear wipers cool?  We'll tell you!!  Also, we share our thoughts on the new 718 Spyder RS and why it's probably going to be dubbed: "the Best Modern Porsche".  Matt does a pretty $hitty Sly Stallone impression, but shortly after we discuss Formula 1 and its association with watches and dive into Hype in watch culture.
Finally, we briefly scratch an IWC itch that neither of us thought we had, and David gives prose on Perpetual Calendar movements.
It's a f*cking mess....but a REALLY good mess!  You'll love it!
