You know it's really kind of fascinating you can almost think about the entire evolution of mechanical

horology and horology of any kind as an attempt to incorporate into a mechanical device the

predictability regularity and rationality of the so-called

clockwork universe.

It's a beautiful thing.

Love that.

I somehow knew you would have the right answer to this question.

I did not have the right answer. And that I would go on. Oh, Hey everybody. I'm your host Stephen Pulver and this is Hodincky Radio.

While a lot of us are off today because of the July 4th holiday here in the US, we've got a super exciting

episode for you today. It's one that I wanted to do for a long time and one that judging by everybody's

DMs, comments on the site, and random emails, you've all

wanted for a while, too. This is our first ever call-in episode. So a few weeks back, we gave you a phone

number to call and we told you to leave us voicemails with the questions that you've always wanted to ask your favorite Hodinkey editors.

So today we're going to answer a few of those.

I decided to bring in some reinforcements for help.

So for the first half of the show, we've got Jack and we're going to in some for good measure but the second half of the show I've got James and we're going to talk about the

relationship between modern vintage watches some lessons that we've learned as collectors how to get

into the watch industry as a career and a whole bunch of other things.

We've got two different perspectives and it should be a ton of fun.

So if you don't hear your question, don't worry, we may get to it in a future episode.

And if you haven't left us a voicemail yet the number is in the show notes please call in and leave your voicemails

I just want to say that this episode has turned into everything I was hoping it would be it's really fun to be able to talk to all of you
