<![CDATA[Keeping Seconds]]>Keeping Seconds is a podcast about watches — and everything around them.

Hosted by Michael Berrios & Noah Williams, the show looks at watches from two different sides: how they’re designed, developed, priced, and brought to market — and how they’re actually worn, collected, photographed, discussed, and understood once they enter the real world.

Expect thoughtful conversations about brands, design, collecting, watch culture, business, style, and the people shaping the industry.

We don’t need to read you another press release. We’re more interested in why a watch works, why it doesn’t, and the decisions that made it what it is.

Michael and Noah dig into the dimensions that actually shape how a watch feels on the wrist — diameter, lug-to-lug, thickness, dial depth, case architecture, weight, and more.

Plus: the beginnings of a Keeping Seconds watch-wear calculator, the Wren Vessel, Omega’s latest James Bond Seamasters, and a look ahead to Atlanta Watch Salon.

They talk about why specs and photography can only tell you so much, how meeting the people behind independent brands can change the way you see the product, and why “buy the seller” might apply just as much to microbrands as it does to the pre-owned market.

Michael also shares how he unexpectedly went from Bernhardt collector to helping steward the brand, and what designing watches taught him about the phrase “I’d buy it if…"

Plus: what’s on the wrist, the first edition of The Watch List, upcoming shows in Atlanta and New York, and what Michael and Noah are still thinking about this week.
