Ever stuck dithering over a watch purchase? Here are some things we think about when we are deciding whether to buy a watch. Hear us discuss the Omega Speedmaster, a Piaget Polo, and a very angry lady - courtesy of Nomos! We also battle it out, in our very friendly wristy way, over the best pick for under $300 (aka 222 Great British Quid.) Which watch would you go for? And finally, we take our very first listener question and offer some watch recommendations to a small-wristed non-watch collector.

**Correction and apologies from Chris: the Isotope Moonshot that Chris has house the ETA/Valjoux 7753 which is NOT a modular chronograph as Chris thought. Thank you to North American Brand Director Marc Levesque for pointing this out. You can read about this Caliber HERE.
