Kaz survived Hurricane Irma and all her bullshit... now he's got a huge doomsday prepper's size hoard of red wine and gourmet peanuts... let the indulging begin (PS - he's totally not going to regret this - nope...) Also, the Two Broke Watch Snobs giveaway is teased while the snobs ask the listeners to start sharing their favorite moments from the podcast this past year.

Before I tell you about cursing out an old Russian man and knocking the pens off of his desk, I have to tell you about The Watch.

This meant the watch would be putting up with long work days in therapy clinics (often times without air conditioning), 90 (F) degree average temperatures with high levels of humidity, and a great deal of sand, sweat, salt water, sunscreen, and bug repellent.

It's the freaking end of times, guys! Florida is bracing for hurricane impact - we got freaking wildfires on the west coast... geomagnetic storms? Earthquakes? Listen, there's really only one responsible thing Mike and Kaz can do here... talk about some goddam watches! Specifically, the best watches to wear during the apocalypse!
Two Broke Watch Snobs
Ok, listen up - if you're an Egyptologist or a member of the Queen's Royal Guard then we got questions. Do you regularly listen to our show? What watches are you allowed to wear? Can you wear a watch? Oh, and Kaz discovers the wonders of actually remembering to use his freaking inhaler on air - asthma be damned!

Then the guys tackle the main topic - trying to understand Universal Geneve. They talk about the special culture there is around collection Universal Geneve pieces in addition to the potential investment opportunities they may (or may not) posses.

Well, we never thought it would happen - but Kaz is going through a hardcore watch purge right now. He talks about focusing his collection while also discussing the best ways to buy and sell watches on the web. Oh, and poor Mike is still hunting down the Glycine Airman No.1...
Two Broke Watch Snobs
Kaz actually contemplates selling some of his collection and then the snobs have a blast talking about some of the coolest back to school watch options for watch folks that have little kiddos going back to school.
Two Broke Watch Snobs
The snobs wrap their heads around the bucking concepts of building a large, budget-conscious collection vs. a collection that's actually smaller, but more methodical and compromised of more expensive pieces. What are your thoughts? Tune in and hit us up!

This week Mike and Kaz have the first (of most likely many) discussions about the oddly polarizing topic of watch straps in horology. Some folks love swapping out straps/bracelets and some others think it's a sin - what's your stance?
Two Broke Watch Snobs
You heard it here first, folks - The Two Broke Avocado Connoisseurs are born!... as usual this show will feature tangents, distractions, stories, and most other things that only peripherally deal with horology and more precisely deal with crude humor. Plus, Kaz shares his best "Predator" sound.
