Nobody Does It Better or so Carly Simon’s song went, but when it comes to putting on the premier watch show in London, nobody does it better than that Rob Corder’s WatchPro.

Andy flew in specially for this event so take this opportunity to follow the boys’ two day experience at the Londoner Hotel in the UK capital’s Leicester Square. Nicknamed the unofficial CP7 Christmas Party it was an experience from beginning to end. We meet new and old friends, and brands that the boys have been itching the see for a while like Brew Watches, Favre Leuba, M.A.D Editions, Nivada Grenchen and many more.

We also find out why cool French brand Hegid feels like a family affair and why everyone is going crazy about the stone dials of Dennison!

So buckle up and enjoy the ride London style as we are back for this year’s exciting instalment of WatchPro Salon!

We're back for another episode of the CP7 Podcast Unplugged, with minimal editing, and the boys just shooting the breeze with what's been happening with them recently.

Catch up with what they have been up to over the last couple of weeks and also hear their take on the most controversial Patek Philippe watch ever released, and definitely the most controversial watch released this year, the Cubitus. Is this really the new 5711? Is is ugly or an evolution of sports watches and the shape of things to come? Is it really a copy of the Cartier Santos? Listen in and find out their take on it and what did Thierry Stern really mean with his comments on why the Cubitus has been received so unceremoniously?

So buckle up and enjoy the ride as we go deep into the cube!

Join us as we talk to Huiy Tang, Co-Founder and the marketing maestro behind RZE Watches.

Assembled for adventure since 2020, RZE has been building timepieces for the everyday adventurer, pushing boundaries in quality and value again and again. Greatly inspired by the use of titanium in the aerospace industry for its strength, weight and look, and being a brand so competitively priced in its target market we find out how such stylish, durable and functional watches can be created at these highly competitive price points.

Hear how Huiy shares that spirit of adventure that he loves, and how he’d rather live the simple life, and appreciate the great outdoors with the pursuits it brings, rather than buy that big house and Lamborghini, which is a mindset that impressively flows through the other founders of the brand, Travis and Clarence. Huiy also explains why the tool watch market is the perfect choice for RZE, with a keen association with sustainability projects such as Canada’s Project Forest which sets out to rewild Canada’s local landscape, and a range of outdoor activity and highly durable tools and products.

So put on your best outdoor adventure gear, and lace up your boots, so you can buckle up and enjoy the ride as we talk to Huiy from this very unique and cool brand.

Immerse yourself in La Dolce Vita as the CP7 Boys talk to Mo Coppoletta, an avid De Bethune collector, tattoo artist and designer, as well as the man and mind behind Italy’s newly launched and stylish independent watch brand, Gagà Laboratorio.

Joining us from Verona in Italy, London-based Mo’s passion for style and flair in his debut watch, the Labormatic, is there for all to hear, but it’s his quest for the finest quality that only a good watch can have, that will win you over in this show. Like the great movie La Dolce Vita's director, Frederico Fellini, he shares that “Sweet Life” passion for making sure that feeling good is a priority, with watches and just about anything meaningful to us as individuals in life, and to never compromise that feeling. You will get a sense of how he puts his heart and soul into everything he does, especially when designing the Labormatic.

Design is one of the most important qualities of a watch, particularly in the creative independent watchmaking space, and we get to hear about the incredible design influences behind both versions of the new Gagà Laboratorio Labormatic, the Cinquanta and the Bauhaus. Discover how they are based on 1950s Milanese-inspired industrial designs, stylish Italian scooters, Smeg kitchen appliances, the Porsche 356 and surprisingly San Giorgio fans! Listen in as we unravel many strands of these 20th century design icons from the 50s and 60s in the DNA of this remarkable watch.

The boys first saw this watch at Geneva Watch Days 2024 and immediately felt compelled to talk to the man behind the vision, so buckle up and enjoy the ride as we revel in an Italian and CP7 “settimo cielo”.

To mark the 1st birthday of the CP7 Podcast, which also happens to be our landmark 40th episode, we have an extremely special guest on to talk watches and a few other unexpected topics too! The CP7 Boys chat to none other than Robert Jan Broer, affectionately known as RJ, the Founder of Europe's leading watch enthusiast online platform Fratello. Not only is he the main man at Fratello, he is also the creator of Speedy Tuesday on social media and a huge Omega Speedmaster collector.

No show with RJ can start without a Speedmaster kick off and boy do we get into some depth about how important it is in the watch icon hierarchy, and how many different models have been made, including a red Speedmaster Racing Michael Schumacher Edition, that Andy had handled which was owned by former Williams and McClaren Formula 1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya.

You'll be blown away by what RJ thinks is the most important watch made in the history of the watch industry, as it's most certainly not what you think!

The boys also get RJ's valuable personal yet experienced insight into what will be a future icon that hasn't quite made it to that "label" yet, and what he rules out as not quite making the cut, of course giving his reasons why. Listen in to RJ's opinion on what is collectible and what is not as he uses the very interesting Porsche 911 vs Porsche Boxster collectibility debate. Finally what brands need a bit more recognition due to merit and continuous improvement rather than hype? So let's talk Omega, Rolex, Cartier plus many more.

For these answers, great insights and a lot of fun, buckle up and enjoy the ride as we mark this monumental show with one of the boys' most favourite and fun episodes so far.

Hot off the press! The UK's Bristol-based Fears Watch Company has just this week released a jumping hour watch into their regular collection, the Fears Brunswick 40.5 Jump Hour, and the CP7 Boys got hands-on before this show to review it. Just to give you that extra special CP7 experience, who better to invite onto the show to talk about the new watch than, none other than the dapper and charismatic CEO of Fears, and our first-ever returning guest, Nicholas Bowman-Scargill.

Discover this new Fears watch's association with the Alliance 01, released in collaboration with Christopher Ward at the beginning of 2023. Listen out for the similarities, and slightly nuanced differences in the movement, design, and layout of this new jumping hour watch, and what exactly are the philosophical connotations of a jumping hour watch?

Gluttons for punishment Fears don't stop there, another special Brunswick 38 was also released this week so there's lots to talk about, lots to laugh about, and lots of watches!

So buckle up and enjoy the ride as we give our thoughts and feelings to the CEO himself.

Yes he’s back, back again!
The resident gentleman of The CP7 Podcast, Mr Martin Green. Interrupting his busy schedule in the Netherlands, Martin finally prioritised between being Editor At Large for Watch Time USA magazine, and the GPHG Academy’s voting panel to take his place as the unofficial third member of Chrono Passion 7!

This episode was supposed to be the CP7 Geneva Watch Days Review Part 2 but the opportunity of having Martin on was too good to pass up. So as Martin missed Geneva Watch Days 2024 he asks the boys a few questions to calm his FOMO before the real watch talk begins.

Do we really need a quest for the world’s thinnest watch? Why are some three dial chronographs called Bicompax and not Tricompax? Which independent brands are the ones to look out for? But most importantly, which watches have been caught on the radar of our trio?

So buckle up, sit back, and enjoy the ride for a lot of watch talk, fun and special insights from your favourite watch-related podcast!
