We\\u2019re lucky to feature a very special guest on our podcast this week: Neil Duckworth from Veritime. Neil now specialises in working with a variety of different watch brands that he finds interesting \\u2013 and he was kind enough to bring in a few examples to show us, which are all fascinating conversation pieces. However, he\\u2019s probably best-known for establishing TAG-Heuer in the UK: or just Heuer, as it was known when Neil started in 1982 (because TAG didn\\u2019t join the party until 1986). That puts him in a great position to look at how times and tastes have changed over the years and speculate about what\\u2019s likely to happen in the future. It\\u2019s a fascinating chat with several trips down Memory Lane \\u2013 plus, of course, all the usual nonsense that you\\u2019ve come to know and love (!) from Jon, Tim, Ben and Anthony.
