The Deep Track

Send us a textThis week I'm joined by Bilal Khan, watch media veteran and current Editor-in-Chief of Teddy Baldassarre, to discuss some highlights of 2025 as the year draws to a close. We chat about the watches from our own collection that got the most wear, as well as watches that left a lasting impression on us. Bilal also gives his impressions of Dubai Watch Week, and we manage to slip in a bit of camera talk for good measure. Show Notes:Bilal on InstagramThe Odyssey TrailerBilal’s ChopardBlake’s GMT-Master II 126710BLROMost worn watch - Rolex Sea-Dweller 16600Nomos Club Sport Neomatik WorldtimerPatek Philippe Cubitus in 40mmZenith GFJJaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Rolex Land-DwellerBreguet Experimental 1Ulysse Nardin x Urwerk UR-FreakChopard L.U.C Grand StrikeRessence Type 3 MNMing Polymesh Titanium BraceletSupport the show

Send us a textThis week Wesley Smith joins the podcast to recap the current Formula 1 season, and the latest race in Las Vegas. This season's Driver's Championship has become far more competitive than anticipated, with Max Verstappen now fully in the picture within 24 points of the lead held by Lando Norris. In this episode, we talk about how the season has unfolded, and what rookies have caught our the most after a full season of growth. As usual, there's some watch talk thrown in for good measure. Show Notes:STANDARD HTAG Heuer Monaco for Las Vegas GPBlancpain Grande Double SonneriePorsche Gen 1 Cayenne Restoration Porsche Cayenne Turbo commercial from 2004Omega Seamaster Planet OceanTudor FXDPorsche Design x HODINKEE Chronograph 1Support the show
