The company — a one-stop shop for horology news, reviews and of course, products — launched a run of handsome watch straps from its new High Craft-Vintage series last month, specifically in a rich Navy Chromexcel and a rugged Peanut Suede. These straps are tough, durable, hand-finished and possibly the perfect addition to your favorite everyday watch. The new introductions complement the site’s overall approach — since 2011, they’ve published more than 100 videos and 1,000-plus articles — yes, you read that right — covering what they call “value-driven watches,” with a focus on “unique and thoughtful design,” plus top-notch construction to match. Sounds good, right?

And the eye-catching new straps play nicely off other additions to the brand’s product line, such as new colors in Worn & Wound’s easy-to-use Single-Pass line of watch straps. Need a new black leather watch strap? The Single-Pass line is the way to go — for under $90 full-price, or under $80 on-sale.  It’s a heck of a way to add a new, durable and stylish casual watch to your collection — all while simply changing the strap.

Lest you worry about finding a belt to match that sharp new watch strap, Worn & Wound has been thinking ahead in that department, too. Its classic leather belts are made with Wickett & Craig leather (some of the best of the best) and assembled in America. It’s the ideal way to pair up your watch strap and belt without missing a beat — now, you only need rugged leather boots to finish off a next-level #OOTD.

What’s the best way to transport your new favorite watch strap, though? Again, Worn & Wound does the advance thinking for you. The Waxed Olive Watch Roll — introduced back in November — starts with a durable waxed army-duck canvas and is finished off with Horween Olive Chamois trimming. It’s no ordinary way to carry around your watches, that’s for sure. The great part about all of this gear? It’s finished with extreme attention to detail and the sort of handsome, classic aesthetic that should complement your everyday carry — that goes for the durable watch straps and carries through to fine leather belts.

Celebrating 150 years of Bulova: An iconic watch brand and American treasure
The 150 year milestone is an incredible achievement for this all-American brand.

Today, we have the pleasure of experiencing two interviews with influential contacts from Bulova, one of the longest-standing watch companies in the country, which is now celebrating its 150th anniversary. For the first interview, Dan Gaul sits down with Jeffrey Cohen, CEO of Citizen Watch America's portfolio of brands, which includes Citizen, Bulova, Caravelle, Wittnauer, Frederique Constant, Alpina, Arnold & Son, and Ateliers deMonaco. Gaul also sits down with Carl Rosen, Museum Curator, and former COO, to talk about Bulova's New York City headquarters and archives. There's a lot of ground to cover, so let's go.
Interviewing a Bulova legend
Bear in mind there's no video content for the initial interview with Jeffrey Cohen; instead, we'll be looking at direct quotes. Why is he such a big deal? With over 37 years of management experience and over 43 years in the industry, he understands the ins and outs. "I saw immediately the beauty and passion of the watch world, and I knew that this would be my life," Cohen says. Thanks to Jeffrey Cohen's strong leadership qualities, major investments in infrastructure and technology, and his focus on developing talent, Citizen Watch America is one of the leading groups in the industry, bar none.

Naturally excited, Gaul opens by briefly explaining how he approached his interview prepping and what stood out most to him: "Hearing about all the firsts that Bulova has done, and also the way that it has given back over those 150 years to the community, to the country, to the industry is a fascinating story."

Ulysse Nardin modifies the Freak One watch model
Here's the new 2024 Ulysse Nardin Freak One Navy Blue—a refined version of the original one
UN Freak One Navy Blue

Launched into the market in 2001, the Ulysse Nardin Freak was the first timepiece to come with an escapement that’s manufactured from silicon elements. Apart from the unique escapement, it was also the first timepiece to use its movement to denote the time.

Just like the first model to be launched into the market, the 2024 UN Freak One Navy Blue is constructed from sophisticated materials and comes with more refined features—from the automatic winding system to the bezel. As the name hints, the dial has a blue hue that blends smoothly with black elements featured on the watch’s movement.

Menswear legend Todd Snyder debuts watches with epic American collab
Bringing watchmaking to America

Todd Snyder is the master of the man's makeover. With ties to brands like Ralph Lauren, The Gap, and J. Crew, he had a long history in the industry before he founded his own brand in 2011. Never one to buy into the high fashion looks of the runway, he instead focuses on finding ways to make you and I look and feel better about ourselves simply by selling us the right chinos, the right body wash, and even the right scrambled eggs in the cafe of his flagship store near Madison Square Park in New York. With that history, he has countless collaborations with virtually every brand you can think of, and he has added another to his list with Weiss Watch Company, which looks to disrupt the Swiss watch industry by bringing watchmaking to the USA.

"I always seek to partner with the best of the best. Weiss Watch Company shares the same dedication to quality, craft, and timeless design that we champion in our menswear. Together, we’ve created a watch that not only embodies classic American craftsmanship but also speaks to modern style and utility. It’s a piece that’s made to last—both in durability and in style." says Snyder.
