March 21, 2022

This week we're digging into a recent Point/Counterpoint concerning the application of the ever-divisive display caseback. Do you want to see inside your new watch? Or do you prefer some mystery? I asked Jack and Danny C who both recently argued opposite sides of this perspective C to come on the show and elaborate upon the wide world of casebacks.? Open. Closed. Hunter. Etched, and more. The caseback has, within the modern scope, become something of a prestigious bit of watch real estate and each brand approaches its caseback strategy in a slightly different manner. While it may not be a question of right vs. wrong, there is a delicate minutia to consider and we do our best to find some sort of group agreement concerning the divisive topic of casebacks.?Thanks so much for listening.?
