Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to another episode of Hodinke radio today.

I'm thrilled to be joined by gentleman dealer Eric Wind of Wind vintage.

Eric's one of the earliest contributors to Hodinke writing his first article way

back in was it 2010 Eric?

Yes, correct.

Over the years he's published the weekly Bring a Loop column and you may also recognize

him from appearances on YouTube classics like reference points for the Omega Speedmaster, GMT master,

Explorer, or his two talks for the Horological Society of New York.

After his time as a Hodinky contributor, Eric joined Christie's as a VP and senior specialist of watches.

In 2017 he set out on his own with Wind Vintage

and surely he recognized his wrist and white cuff always adorned with a beautiful or

rare watch.

Eric, thanks for joining the show and coming back to Hodinke.

Thank you Tony, thanks for having me.
