Were all going on a summer holiday! - Ep #19

Published: Sept. 11, 2020, 9 a.m.

Actually, that\u2019s not true. Nobody\u2019s going on a summer holiday apart from Tim, who has just come back from Cornwall. The rest of us have been stuck at work \u2013 but it\u2019s still the perfect excuse to talk about holiday watches, inspired by Tim\u2019s exciting tales of Cornish smuggling and surfing (OK, mostly pubs and restaurants).

\n

So which watch would you take away \u2013 and where to? Listen away to find out \u2013 as well as all the usual nonsense about what we\u2019ve been up to this week and what\u2019s caught our eye.
