Chrono Passion 7 Podcast

Parm and Andy will touch down in Geneva for Watches & Wonders 2026, and the energy at Palexpo will be electric. 
In this show join us as we preview the big event and call out the brands we are looking forward to seeing most. This show captures the angst, anticipation and excitement of soon being on the ground at the greatest watch show on earth.
But also sandwiched in between that is their take on the new releases from returning legendary horological maison Universal Geneve! Can they be considered "new" or is Georges Kern's House Of Brands reinventing the wheel with the return of the iconic brand and in particular the Polerouter.
So buckle up and enjoy the ride as watch show season officially takes off.

Join the CP7 boys as we chat to Hamish Robertson, the co‑founder of The Watch Collectors’ Club, one of the UK’s most vibrant and fast‑growing communities for watch lovers. Listen in as Parm and Andy explore how a common interest, passion, and a welcoming culture can transform our horological experience, with a good watch club. 

Hamish talks us through the origins of the Club and why he co-created it, how it’s grown, and what makes its approach to watch appreciation, brand collaborations and international travel to big watch shows so refreshingly different. We also unpack  our individual perspectives on how brands and the watch media need to take action to improve and enhance the experience of the watch communities we hold dear and love. 

The boys also talk about the mysterious conundrum that is modern day Longines, and try to decode what makes its recent watches so much less appreciated than their historical and vintage ones.
So buckle up and enjoy the ride as this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
