#60: Josh Rogers - The Weird & Wonderful World of Portobello Road


For episode 60 of the Time 4A Pint Podcast, I got together with Portobello Road based watch dealer, and fellow fan of odd horology, Josh Rogers.

We talked about how the trade has changed in the last 10 years, the weird and wonderful things that wander in off the Portobello Road, keyboard warriors and Omega cross hairs, impulse purchases in French Flea markets, buying a new stainless steel Rolex at retail, and our shared fondness for quirky and often unloved timepieces.

You can find pictures and reference numbers of all the watches that we talked about on the page below.
